SOM taking orders for 2006 ratings book & disk

[Mean Dean]

It's painful to find in their store, of course, but I assure you it's there.

Thanks for the info, Dean. But I'm confused. If these items were new, shouldn't they be the [b:95575d6ceb]2007[/b:95575d6ceb] ratings book and disk? I mean, we have already been playing the 2006 game. Is this a result of the disparity between the way SOM and TSN are identifying the seasons? Or is this simply a matter of me posting before the coffee is ready?

It's the 2006 season...

Yes.

Their online store is the equivalent of my brother's room when he literally didn't clean it for about five years. I don't want to link directly to putting something in your shopping cart, and I don't know how to link otherwise... so I'll just list here that the ratings book & disk is product code B2006RBD, and the disk alone is product code B2006RD.

I have a question,

I have never used Ratings Book or Disc......

Is it necessary to get book and Disc, or is the disc enough.

What exactly do each of these do, Geekor gave a good description to me a while back about the disc.

From what I gather, it is a excel wksht that you can plug in players and will give you a breakdown of the cards.

What exactly does the book do?

Would love to hear some feedback on this

Real men don't need no damn disk(or spreadsheet).

I admit that I haven't had to use one yet and I am 103 games over .500 so far this year, but I know I wouldn't have had the success with out the help of alot of people on the boards. Many of whom own the disc.

I just figured I would be able to answer alot of my own questions without constantly posting help questions on the boards.

Heck, maybe I would be able to answer someone else's questions instead.

That would be a big change for me!!!!!!!

The disk is the cards broken down in excel with all the numbers (so you don't have to calculate by hand). the book (please correct me if I'm wrong, I've never gotten it) is the cards in a book for you to look at. The disk doesn't include injuries, which to me is the only reason to get the book for.

The book doesn't have the cards. It basically a summary of the excel sheet with each team listed, top RF etc.
