Linescore Committee request for volunteers
Posted: Tue Sep 26, 2017 7:47 pm
All,
As Chairman of the Linescore Committee, I am making a request for volunteers to work on a large but significant project. It is to generate game summaries for the seasons 2008-2019. As you probably know the NFL stopped putting summaries in the Record & Fact books, beginning with the 2009 book. This was my source for seasons prior to 2008. If you haven't seen the linescores on the Members Only section, a summary is a short 4-5 sentence paragraph that describes the most important events of a game.
What I can provide a volunteer is the game write-up from ESPN's website (I've copied all of them into Word files), spreadsheets with 100-yard rushers & receivers and 300-yard passers, and a short guide on how to write a summary. I can also provide feedback with tips/suggestions. So far I have a couple of volunteers, but I need several more as there are some 3,200 games to do. I know some members have projects or special interests they are involved with. But if you are interested in a big project and can dedicate a lot of time and effort, please send me a private message.
