I was going through the tutorial and following directions (I think)
when it instructed me to decouple the url confs near the end of part 3
of the Django Tutorial. After I did this, I was no longer able to
reach the admin page. Now, whenever I try to reach the admin, I get
this error message:
TemplateSyntaxError at /admin/
Caught an exception while rendering: Tried vote in module
mysite.player_info.views. Error was: 'module' object has no attribute
'vote'
which is weird since I am typing http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/ as the
url and this has nothing to do with the line:
(r'^(?P<poll_id>\d+)/vote/$', 'vote'),
in the urlconf.
What might have happened?

FYI, my mysite/urls.py looks like this:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
from django.contrib import admin
admin.autodiscover()
urlpatterns = patterns('',
(r'^league/', include('mysite.polls.urls')),
(r'^admin/', include(admin.site.urls)),
)
and the mysite/polls/urls.py looks like this:
from django.conf.urls.defaults import *
urlpatterns = patterns('mysite.player_info.views',
(r'^$', 'index'),
(r'^(?P<poll_id>\d+)/$', 'detail'),
(r'^(?P<poll_id>\d+)/results/$', 'results'),
When I comment out the (r'^league/', include('mysite.polls.urls')),
line in mysite/urls.py, I can get to the admin page. Otherwise I
can't. Does this provide more insight into my problem?

Admin requires your entire URLConf be valid. Fix the error noted in the exception, and admin will work again. The reason why Admin requires a fully valid URLConf is because it generates links on its pages using reverse URL mapping using the url template tag or the reverse utility function (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/http/urls/#reverse). That process iterates through the entire URLConf and any errors found will cause it to fail.

I'm struggling to find where the error is in my urlconf. When that
line I referenced previously is uncommented, I am able to get to the
other pages for which I have made views (which is just the home page
at the moment), but I can't access the admin. Could the problem be
that I have not written views for everything that the urlconf
references? Because I'm struggling to find an error in any of my
syntax in the urlconfs.

Precisely. The documentation that Karen Tracey mentions discusses this:

Yes. At the least write stub views, declaring the function but just
