Week One Is Done

 

Okay, so we have Week One of 2022 in the books and it's time for my annual 'You're Not As Good (or as bad) As You Think You Are After One Week' warning. Maybe that should be my next statistical rabbit hole...how many teams have had a big first week and then gone on to win the title. Or the opposite.

Patterns will emerge over the next few games but one thing we are already seeing is a bunch of injuries. When I saw Dak Prescott go off with his hand injury I was thinking 'man, he sure is injury prone!'. But I looked it up. Other than his 2020 injury he's played every game of every season he's been the Cowboys' starter. ¯\_㋡_/¯

Monday Report-- If you checked into the league site yesterday (and why wouldn't you?) you might have seen the Monday Report module front and center. Each Monday it'll be there with a summary of our games and you can see where every game stands going into MNF. Best part of it is that it goes away on Tuesday and I don't have to do a thing.

Myfantasyleague Apps-- Last week one owner had an issue making a waiver move using his phone. It wasn't letting him sign into the league. My suggestion to everyone is to use one of the two available apps. Search your app store for "my fantasy league" and you should come across MFL Mobile 2020* and MFL Platinum. Both work equally well and allow you to submit lineups, place bids, etc. There is a third app, MFL Lite but while it's looks really nice I have yet to figure out how to submit a lineup with it. I suspect it is simply scraping the league pages for info (rosters, schedule, etc) and doesn't have any real interaction with the system. 

*=it uses 2020 in the app name but it works perfectly fine for 2022.

MFL Manager-- Here's a neat thing to use if you have teams in more than one MFL league. Using the URL below you will (once you've logged in with your MFL username and password) go to a page with your leagues listed.:

Click 'My Scoreboard' at the top and you'll see all your games:

Clicking your team brings up this menu with links to all the owner tools you likely need. You can move the blocks around to suit your preference as well. Just use the edit (pencil) icon at the upper right.

Go to this page, log in, and save the site to your toolbar or bookmark bar/bookmarks.

That's it for now. Remember that waivers are currently in our first blind bidding session of the year. They will process Wednesday night. Thursday morning begins 'open' waivers with a cost of $5 a player. That runs through the noon (Central) kickoffs on Sunday. 

 That's it for this week. Next week is special because someone is having her first birthday!
