Grogansghost Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I'm in three leagues. One a yahoo basic, another yahoo plus, and the third a sportsline. I've never had a problem with the Yahoo leagues in terms of drafting. Sportsline was fine last year for the draft, but this year was crap. In terms of features, the yahoo interface is a lot less cluttered and the information is laid out better, but they only have an option to look at the league's starting lineup on one page instead of the roster grid in sportsline which is maddening when you want to come up with a trade. Both do certain things better than the other, but I'd say Yahoo is better and more reliable overall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorcher Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 Right now in our local (10:23 am) it says that FFb is shut down for a planned hardware upgrade, and will be up sometime today.( didn't say what year) It's been 7hrs so far. If it was planned why didn't they let anyone know about it or give an approx time frame? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blips Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 If it was planned why didn't they let anyone know about it or give an approx time frame? Why? because of the title: sportsline=ass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texans Posted August 30, 2006 Share Posted August 30, 2006 We had our local draft online at Sportsline last night. It was awful to say the least. 10-12 owners had problems with the site, people were getting kicked out of the draft room and the site wouldn't update for chit as the draft went along. It took us 4.5 hours to do a 17 round 12 team draft. I've been using Sportsline for 6 years and never had these kinds of problems. Anyone have a customer service number? I can't find one on their site. Sounds just like Fox Fantasy Football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P1Day1 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 Sure MFL is cheaper, doesn't have ads, and works all the time. But MFL didn't let me know that T.Hen was the starter in Tenn, so give sportsline a break guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 When are people going to stop rewarding CBS for charging excessive prices for an inferior service year after year after year? I've seen numerous accounts of drafts on CBS that crashed completely this weekend - and CBS blaming it on microsoft updates earlier this month. :shakinghead: PT Barnum was right. And people who are still with CBSSportsline - hey, you've been warned. Don't look for a shoulder to cry on here. Good info here You can post pics and write league stories at MFL, too. Anyone that uses any other product gets no sympathy from me. Good info here too. Side note - If the NFL finally gets it's way and the likes of MFL go to the wall, leaving just CBS and Yahoo, etc, can you imagine what a disaster it will be for FF?

rcswildcat Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 just got a message back from sportsline, crediting my card for 150. i told them i have been using their site for like 7-8 years for one league i commish, 2 others i commish/cocommish and another im just in. i told them i would take the other 3 to mfl if they didnt give me my $$$ back. they did and are allowing us to play free. i really dont like sportsline, but everyone is used to it so it just kind of works. nice to play for free. bigger pot for me!
