STATS PROVIDER

[Commish]

I went into the CBSSPORTSLINE site and set up a sample league to make sure it has all the functionality we need. It does.

We can do fifty round slow draft - we can set our own rules to allow no add drops

the only thing we cannot do is set it for Friday lineup updates.

SO - unless yahoo comes out next week and is much improved - I think we really need to use CBS.

I am 99% sure yahoo will not allow us to do what we want.

ESPN does not allow for slow drafts. (unless they change things in the next few days or weeks?)

[Commish]

By the way - disadvantage to CBS is that their commish service costs like $150 or so. (I think it's $189 for the season but if you sign up and pay before Feb 7th - it is $30 off)

We would have to take that out of the overall prize pool.

Commish, you as commish would have to manually change the Friday guy. We do in another league. The 150 out of the prize pool is fine..........

Im ok with the once a week. commish os doing enough work CBS works well, I did a slow NFBC-ish draft there last year.

Whatever we do, let's not use Yahoo. Their support stinks. I would wait for ESPN to come back up to see if they can accommodate a slow draft this year; otherwise I guess it's CBS.

ESPN will be up in a week or two. I say let's wait to see what they offer. We'll still have plenty of time.
