Old Website

Post by JamesH » Mon Apr 05, 2010 1:40 am

If this is even possible, I'd vote to scrap this new shiney website and go back to the old rusty reliable one. Just a thought.



Oh, and in the Main one of our bids didn't go through and the player is sitting in FA. Is there an ETA on when all this will be corrected?



Greg, are we allowed to complain now that FAAB actually failed? I think its poor form to say I told you so, but you really need to listen to your customers more. Almost all of us saw this coming. I think you and Tom are stand up guys that run excellent live drafts. But you bit off more than you can chew with the new system changes. I know you had great intentions but lets go back to the old website.

Well their not going back to the old website because it was run by a competing company but they need to find competent people to run their own site.

I think Greg may be downing Corona after Corona right about now; Maybe we should let him be and start asking where the hell is the Supreme Leader, Ryan H. Houston; did I get the middle initial correct? :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Greg will unfairly take the brunt of this. He will also say what I am about to say is not fair and be willing to stand in the firing line.



You do the math anything he (Greg) has touched during this has gone extremely well. The things left to corporate most importantly IT issues has gone horrible.



The bottom line is it will take a long, long time to earn back the trust of the customer to the leve it was once at. Some really good folks worked very hard over the past 6 plus years to ear that trust. Sad that it can go away so quickly. I am not saying people are overreacting either. Most everything fanball has touched has been amateur hour. Beyond the bids being wrong standings are not correct (just as big of an issue obviously).

[/QUOTE]Chest, you hit the nail on the head here. What many don't realize is that the NFBC is far more corporate now. I could feel the difference from year's past as soon as I signed up this year. Greg will shoulder most of the blame for any bumps in the road, but a lot of the final decision making may not be in his hands. What choice does he really have other than to stand behind his team's decisions and be an optimistic voice?
