Who on here has experience with myfantasyleague.com? We have been with Fanball for about 7 years and they have just gone to shite.

Is this a fantasy advice or league hosting service?

It's a league manager / hosting service.

It didn't take much to convince two of my leagues to switch from Fanball. Their service had gotten rediculous since NBC took them over. One of the leagues I run is a high stakes league so I just wanted to make sure I was making a smart move. If not, I will hear about it.

How much are you talking when saying "high stakes"...I'm actually working with a web-design company on a strictly high-stakes fantasy football site. All geared around premium service and hosting.

Hope to roll out for next season, most likely 2012 though.

I'd appreciate any suggestions you could offer on what you'd like in a site

Sure. I'll work something up for you. How can I contact you privately and we can communicate that way.

<------ @ gmail.com

we got a good plan, just in the obtaining as much user info as possible. The goal is to develop it into THE fantasy football high stakes site, pretty much full service 24/7

Myfantasyleague.com actually has one of the best league/team layouts, but the other services they offer aren't great.

Handle all the league fees... full personal service...individual league analysis...for the huge high stakes, actually conduct the live draft and set-up league..actual text messaging system about your players injuries, matchups. Updates. Etc

Offer certain things that CBS and Yahoo can't offer

Congrats. You won't go back. If you need any help customizing your pages/profile just ask. Go through all the links and use fantasy shark for sundays. What's the name of your league?

I've played on myfantasyleague for about7 years now. I've been satisfied with it.

Only thing I don't like is how the program handles the waiver wire. You can't submit for a player while on waivers. You have to wait for the player to come off waivers, then hope you're the first owner to log on and pick him up. I like how sportsline handles it. With sportsline.com, you can submit for a player while he's still on waivers, then the time with highest priority gets dibs.. My league commish says he's getting updated software for this season, so this may be fixed now.

FWIW...

sounds like a setting problem. Been with the same league for 6 years now and I can get anyone at any time. you need to tell the commish to change that shite

I've been playing on myfantasyleauge for about 5 or so years. The site offers tons of options and extras. I like it and don't see our league ever leaving, unless it turns to complete shite.

We've brought it up to him for the past few seasons, and he claims the software doesn't allow it. But now you're confirming what I've suspected -- my commish is dumb.

Just to be clear- When a player is released, he goes on the waiver wire for 2 days. During that 2 days, you're saying that any team can submit for the player? Then when the 2 days is up, the team with highest priority that submitted for the player gets him?

i could drop someone for ten seconds and pick him up 5 seconds later, same with anyone else. 1st come 1st serve, best believe I watch every game. I'd get on your commish's arse for that and what you're paying.. You pay the big bucks for a reason this ain't a yahoo league brother!

I only pay $90 for my keeper teams. I'm not sure how much the commish pays myfantasyleague.com for their services. I play at mynffl.com, and my commish has that set up through myfantasyleague.com.

The stattracker's nothing special. It doesn't have any iphone apps that I'm aware of. I honestly like sportsline's layout the better, but I somehow ended up in this mynffl league. The rules allow me to keep 1 qb,2 rb, 2wr, 1 def, and 1 kicker every year, so I've grown too attched to my teams to bail.
