    We have used it since 2001 and it's a great service. Sometimes, better put rarely, the site gets bogged down but unfortunately that happens with any site. After a couple reloads, it's back up and running. If you are a repeat customer, you get an "early bird" special of $20 off (so only $129.95 for the year).

    Well worth it, especially for the larger leagues image

    That is a great site and I used the code as found elsewhere! Thanks for posting.

    By the way, is there going to be a PSA Web board league this year? I have not played in it before, but if so, I am in. I think it would be cool to set up a prize similar to what I was reading about another league. I don't remember if I read it on these boards or somewhere else but basically each guy's buy in was a game used or autograph card of nominal value, winner take all. Since a lot of us here seem to really enjoy vintage unopened, perhaps it could be a gift certificate to BBE or money towards some designated box of vintage unopened. That would be fun.

    In any event, if anyone wants to play, I am in. You can never be in too many fantasy football leagues!

    Is it that same flimsy plastic POS that they gave away two years ago?

    If getting scores is your main priority for a fantasy Web site, sportsline is okay. If you're looking for player breakdowns and useful information on who to draft, who is a good sleeper and other analysis, you'll find a lot of other sites that are MUCH better and cheaper.

    If you are aware of any sites that can run a league better, please feel free to list them. I've looked at quite a few and none have the options (customizing to league's rules, updating stats accurately, F/A pickups, etc) that cbs has. Stats and analysis is one thing but actually running it is another.

    Not saying it's not out there, just not aware of it.

    Yeah, that's why I said, if you're looking for analysis and indepth player information, you'll probably wind up having to go elsewhere for such info. Now if all you're worried about is having a scoreboard to keep track of your games while watching football on Sundays, sportsline will be something you might want to look into. I've been using sportsline for about 6 years now myself and for the most part, it's pretty reliable other than some occasional lag.

    I hate it when that happens. It's always reassuring to call someone in another state making sure it's not just your connection image

    rotowire.com is what I use for player info, draft help and updates. I think its like $30 annually, but I do fb/bb/bkb so I think its worth it.

    Anybody ever use AOl's free Fantasy League? I think it has free live scoring and everything CBS does for free, And all you need is a AoL username. A bunch of the guys are thinking of using it this year, We have been using a pay league. But if you can get everything on AOL that you can in a pay league then why pay. If anyone has ever used them let me know.

    I could be wrong to have an AOL screen name, you need an AOL account, right?

    If you want a "real" free online commissioner (yet very basic), there's yahoo.com.

    Edited to add: I've used yahoo for 3 or 4 leagues. While I didn't have any real problems with it, you get what you pay for image
