The QB score is wrong for some reason. I’ll fix it. To get the totals I’m adding up the QB/RB/WR score at the bottom, it’s easier that way. Which is why his weekly scores were correct, but I somehow gave him 200 extra QB yards from somewhere. ---

As always, the self scoring is much appreciated. Just to be clear, even though the slots say QB/RB/WR, technically it’s passing/rushing/receiving yards, so you could pick a running back or tight end for your WR/receiving yards slot if you wanted. The new link is [here.](http://members.cox.net/senorbeef/SDMByardagecomp.htm) Rather than creating a new file every week, I’ll just update that one, so this link should always work and give the latest info. Scores this week were: 1. RNATB 638 2. Omni 524 3. Lieu 464 4. notfrommensa 448 5. VarlosZ 436 6. Wilson 413 7. SenorBeef 387 ---
