COMMISSIONERS, REMEMBER TO SET YOUR PLAYOFF MATCHUPS When your league's regular season ends, the site will not generate your playoff schedule automatically. The commissioner must set the playoff matchups manually by accessing the Schedule, Matchups toolbar link in the Front Office, choosing the week the playoffs begin and then entering the matchups. Nothing else needs to be changed. Once the commissioner enters the matchups, all owners can view them on the Schedule, Playoffs page. CONSOLATION MATCHUPS DURING PLAYOFF WEEKS The fantasy playoffs are upon us. So why leave the non-playoff teams on the sidelines? Commissioners can set not only the playoff matchups, but consolation matchups as well, under the Schedule, Matchups link in the Front Office. PLAYOFF INFORMATION Go to Schedule, Playoffs to see when your playoff tournament starts and how many rounds it lasts. If you were lucky " make that skillful " enough to make the playoffs, go to NFL Teams, Schedule and take note of the NFL teams with byes during your playoff weeks, so you know which players will be available for you.

Go to Schedule, CommGuru for a "tale of the tape," comparing your starters to your opponent's, position by position. The "guru" will predict the winner of the matchup and a final score. In addition to adding spice to your trash talking, it could also help you decide who to start and who to bench. Tweak your lineup and go back to see if the guru's prediction changes. If so, you may want to consider changing your lineup accordingly. Of course, the guru isn't perfect, but he can help you with those tough decisions. CUSTOMIZE YOUR REPORT SETTINGS Did you know you can customize the settings of most reports on the site, and save those settings so they are displayed each time you visit the report? For example, suppose you'd like the Transactions, View report to display only Add/Drops over the past 7 days for all teams. Enter those settings, click GO and then click the "save" icon displayed over the report. Now each time you go to Transactions, View, the report is displayed according to your custom settings.
