Keeping it useful
- Log the game the day you work it. Crew names are the first thing you forget.
- Write each league one way. “UPSL” on some rows and “UPSL Premier” on others counts as two leagues when you add things up.
- Mark a game Paid when the money arrives, not when it's promised.
- Keep past seasons. You'll want the totals by year.
