Each team will play 7 players and 2 defenses each week.  By 5:00 pm on 
friday I need to know which players and defenses that you plan on playing
that weekend.  Also mail your opponent to let them know which players 
they are up against that weekend.  The 5:00 rule will be strictly enforced
this year.  If it is not turned in the previous weeks team will be used.
If the defense has a bye your other defense will be used.  You must play
a defense every week.  If both defenses have byes the default will be 
-14 for the pass defense and -11 for run defense.

The draft order will decide the schedule.  If you are the first to draft
you will be team 1, 2nd would be team 2 and so on up to team 8.

There will be 2 divisions with teams 1-4 in one division and 5-8 in the
other division.  You play each team in your division 3 times and each 
team in the other division twice.

SCORING
  
  QB   For each touchdown pass that your qb throws you get 3 pts.
       For each interception he throws you get -2 pts.
       For each touchdown the QB rushes for you get 3 pts.
       Also take his total yds passing and /25.  Round to the nearest whole
       number and add that to the int and td pts.

  WR, RB  For each touchdown that one of these players scores you get
       4 pts.  Also add the total recieving yds for all five players to the
       rushing yds by your 2 RBs and divide the total by 15 that added to the
       TD pts will be the total pts for these positions.
       Also score 1 bonus point if your reciever has 7 or more receptions.

       (example)
       Smith    95 yds rushing, 38 yds recieving, 1 td
       Sanders  80 yds rushing, 56 yds recieving, 1 td
       Rice                    125 yds recieving, 2 tds
       Givens                  106 yds recieving, 0 tds
       Jackson                  45 yds recieving, 1 td

       95+80+38+56+125+106+45=545  545/15=36.33 = 36 pts
		         5 TDs X 4 pts per TD  =  20 pts
 
  PK  For each field goal of less then 40 yds you get 2 pts.
      For each field goal more then 40 yds you get 3 pts.
      For each field goal more then 50 yds you get 4 pts.
      For each missed field goal of 44 yds or less you get -1 pts.
      For each missed field goal of 29 yds or less you get -2 pts.

  PD  For each interception that your pass defense picks off you get 2 pts.
      For each sack that your pass defense records you get 1 pt.
      For each passing td allowed you get -2 pts.
              
  RD  For each rushing td allowed you get -2 pts.
      For each fumble recovery you get 1 pt.

  RD & PD add the total passing yds of the team that your pass defense plays
      to the total rushing yds that the team your rush defense plays.  Take 
      that number /-30. This will give you a negative number that is added
      to your offensive pts.


Draft
  On the Wednesday before the sart of the regular season at 5:00pm we will have 
  the draft.  We should try to limit each turn to under 60 seconds if possible. 
  You will draft 2 deep at each position except for the QB where you will draft
  3 deep.  After the 4th week of the season we will have a 4 round supplamental
  draft where you can draft any undrafted players or defenses to help shore up
  any deficiencys in your roster.  This will give us a total of 19 rounds in the
  first draft. 
  3 QBs
  4 RBs
  6 WRs or TEs
  2 PKs
  2 PDs 
  2 RDs
  
  Each team will have a 20 player roster limit.  After the supplamental draft
  you may pick up to 4 more unused players or defenses over the rest of the 
  season. 

Trades
  Each person may trade players with other teams.  But once traded a player
  cannot be traded back to the original owner.  Also there will be no trades
  allowed after the tenth week of the season.  No trades are valid unless I
  have been notified before the player is used.
