I can get rules from other leagues' websites, but I don't know how to make the web page reports or do anything like that.

Edit -- actually, reading through the thread again, it looks like OOTP gives you all the html files. Maybe I'll just get a geocities account and give this a try, but if there are any other centralized commish resources, I'd love to know about them. Thanks everyone!

Yet again, I agree with Killebrew.

I would join a league (or multiple leagues) before trying my hand as a commish. There have been many things pop up in the leagues I've been in, and the commissioner had enough experience with OOTP to foresee the potential problem and keep it from becoming one. Things like post-season pitching rotation problems, mis-allocation of expenses in a less than 162 game season, and other issues that you wouldn't know about without some serious OOTP experience.

In any case, go get 'em champ.
