| 2. | How can I import my league reports into Excel? Answer: If you're running a recent version of Excel (2000 or 2002), along with a recent version of Internet Explorer:
1. Go to the web page you'd like to import, and then choose the This Page > Printer Friendly Page menu option.
2. Right-click on the part of the web page you'd like to import.
3. From the pop-up window that appears, choose the "Export To Microsoft Excel" option.
Otherwise, if you're running a recent version of Excel (2000 or 2002), but a different web browser:
1. If you're running Excel 2000, go to "Data > Import External Data > New Web Query..."
2. From inside the pop-up window, go to the web page for the report that you'd like to import.
3. From that page, choose the This Page > Printer Friendly Page menu option.
3. Click on the arrow next to the table in this report that you'd like to import.
4. Click on the import button and voila, your spreadsheet is populated.
The best part about this is that any time you want to refresh the data from the site into your spreadsheet, you only have to click on the "Data > Refresh Data" option, and your spreadsheet is updated - far easier than either copy/paste or even importing a text file.
If you're running Excel 97,detailed instructions are available from the microsoft.com web site.

| 7. | How do I use the Commissioner News page? Answer: This screen will display the seasons Site News, Stats Changes, Player Position Changes, Site Upgrades and Strange Plays. Simply click on the corresponding link to view all the league articles, or filter for a specific weeks update.
Commissioner News - This screen displays all of the seasons articles published by MyFantasyLeague.com and sent to the commissioner via email . During the Season, articles are published weekly to detail enhancements and options available to your league. This site news allows leagues to better track site enhancements and other site news throughout the year.
If you prefer not to receive these site news email messages, you can use the Commissioner Email Setup
screen to turn this option off. Just remove the checkbox for the "MyFantasyLeague.com Site News" email option. Also by default, all of your owners will not be sent an email message when new announcements are made. However, your owners can choose to receive these site news email messages, they can use the Franchise Setup - Advanced
screen to turn that option on.
Official Statistics Changes - Occasionally, Elias Sports Bureau (the official Statistician of the NFL) make official statistics changes after a week's games have been completed. Note that there is no set schedule for when these corrections are announced - they might be announced a day after a game is over, and at other times, it may be weeks later. When these changes become official they may be found on this screen detailing each week and each statistic change.
NOTE: These statistic changes are not automatically implemented into your league scoring. When changes like this happen after we've issued "Final Weekly Results" for a given week, we allow you, as the league commissioner, to decide if you'd like to include or exclude these late statistics changes from your league results, by allowing you to select how you'd like to handle them, and offering the For Commissioners > Statistics Changes
menu option to manage these stat changes. To be notified via email when these statistic changes occur please check the option in the Commissioner Email Setup
screen to receive MyFantasyLeague.com Site News.
Player Position Changes - When the 53-man rosters are defined, and even occasionally during the season, NFL teams will change the position of their players. When this occurs, and the players status has been changed according to that teams official roster, we will update the position change and post our changes here.
Site Upgrades - Throughout the year MyFantasyLeague.com is continually making enhancements based on leagues requests. As enhancements are created they can be found here with instructions on how to best implement them into your league.
Strange Plays - From time to time the NFL games produce what we call a special play. That is, a play that does not easily or directly transfer from the professional game to the fantasy game. For most of these occurrences MyFantasyLeague.com will display these "Strange Plays" and explain how they are statistically scored for your league.

| 11. | How do I use the Points Allowed - By Position page? Answer: This report details how many fantasy points each NFL team has allowed, broken down on a position-by-position basis.

Show Results From - Select a starting and ending week (default is 1-21) to view a subset of a player's stats based on part of the season.
