Why Do Owners.....

join leagues without reading the rules, and then repeatedly petition to have rules changed?

As a commish for the past 8 years, there is nothing that I can't stand more.


As a commish, what bugs you most about running the league?

Seeing as 4 of those questions are very similar, I think he's asking why you think Yahoo! and ESPN are so terrible.

And I would like to ask if that statement is directed at free, public leagues over there or any league, including private ones among friends that are simply based on Yahoo!/ESPN.

CBS sportsline better?

I have been running yahoo private league for years and didn't really have any major problems to speak of.

yes, free leagues absolutely suck! as for the websites Yahoo is horrible for multiple reasons. just the overall fantasy format that they offer. i should mention that i have not played there in years, but some friends tell me that it is still horrible. espn is better this year, but still lacking in scoring options and features. the absolute best free site is fantasysports.aol.com. fully customizable

I used free Yahoo for 9 leagues in the past few years, commishing 4 of them, and I had no major problems. The only problem we ran into was lack of customization. Overall the leagues were very easy to run and they have a nice easy interface to work with. I checked out AOL's interface this year and didn't like it from the start, but hey, it can be hard to change.

This year we moved our money league to myfantasyleague.com which has taken a while to setup but I think it's going to be worth it, it actually works out to be cheaper than a free Yahoo league because live scoring with Yahoo was $10/owner, whereas MFL was $8/owner.

Basicly if your in it to just have fun yahoo is the best. Its the easiest to use and doesnt have alot of bells and whistles.
