How to get here ​

  1. Open a league from Leagues.
  2. Select Dashboard under League. It is the first item.

What you see ​

  • Run diff notes the runs scored and allowed.
  • Playoff odds reads "Not projected yet" until the league has a projection.
  • Pyth record says how many wins better or worse than expected your record is.
  • Champion banner under the header once the league has a champion. It ends with "Hang the pennant."
  • Standings on the left in the regular season. Columns are TEAM, W-L, PCT, DIFF, PYTH, L10 and STRK. PYTH shows only once the league has a projection. A mark flags clubs run by a human. It reads "No standings yet." before games start.
  • Games feed on the right in the regular season, with the tabs Games, Feed, Beat, Awards and Odds. Beat, Awards and Odds show only when the league has content for them. Games reads "No games played yet." when empty.
  • Postseason in the playoffs. It shows the bracket in four columns: Wild Card, Div Series, Champ Series and Championship. The games feed sits beside it with a Final standings tab.
  • Offseason calendar in the offseason. It lists the steps of the winter, and a shorter Final standings table stays beside it.
  • Day complete card after you advance. It lists the scores and marks your own game with Yours.
  • Club option decision rows from the playoffs until the Options & expirations step of the offseason. Each row names one of your players with an open club option. Select the row to open his page and decide. The email you get after a sim also lists open club options.

What you can do ​

  • Select a game: opens its box score, which has a Decisive plays section.
  • Select an offseason step that waits on you: opens the Draft, Free agency or your team page, depending on the step.

  • Start a basketball league on the FTG Basketball is live. card: opens FTG Basketball.
  • Not now on the same card: hides it for 30 days. The game switcher still lists FTG Basketball.
  • Retry and My leagues: shown if the league fails to load. Retry tries again, My leagues goes back to the list.
