I would like to know how to remove my Entry-Meta and Comments from pages, but not posts. I update the code via FTP no through the WP-Admin so maybe I'm missing something.
I've figured out how to close comments, but then the annoying text saying "comments are closed" still appears on the pages, I don't want that either.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks!

Hey pz,
You're probably going to want to check your theme for the page.php file, if it exists.
To remove the entry meta stuff, you'll want to look in the code for the code within <div class="entrytitle">:
<div class="entrytitle">
<h1><a href="http://pzfantasyfootball.com/about-me/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to About Me">About Me</a></h1>

</div>You'll probably see some php code similar to the following:
Article written by <?php the_author() ?>
<?php the_time('F jS, Y') ?>To remove the comments from page.php, you'll want to look for the call to <?php comments_template(); ?>

Hmm.. unfortunately that file doesn't exist... I downloaded and customized the Simpla theme because it seems to be the easiest to customize... however a downside is that it's a minimalist theme and doesn't include a lot of the features I should probably have.

No, some themes don't include all possible templates. You definitely have an index.php file, though.
You could copy the index.php file and save it as page.php and make the edits that I suggested.
