My league used USASTATS for 17 seasons and now that they are gone there doesn't seem to be anyone that can offer what they offerd.

ALL-STAR HAS ZERO customer service and tq/cdm bites the big one.

Looking for a site than can handle 40 man rosters with 10 man minor leagues, daily trannies, commish options to input trades. Also must be able to make moves at first pitch everyday like we used with USA

If anyone knows of a site that can handle those requirements please send me a private email.

thanks

I know a $1,250 and $2,000 league with daily transactions and we've had good luck with Allstar stats. Actually wish the NFBC used them.

Not sure what your looking for but I'm trying www.fanstar.com this year for a dynasty league.

You can set roster size to anything so 40 would work. Also you can set the roster size for the number of players on your farm. Max of 32 teams, and the thing I like the most you can make your own schedule. We have divisions so this works great.

Again this is my first year using this site, but I like it so far.

Try customstat.com. I have been using them for about 8 years and they are great, easy to work with, and a decent price.

guys thanks for the updates.

I contacted custom stats err..I tried too I left 4 voicemails and about 1/2 dozen emails STILL no response going on 3weeks. If that's the customer service I can expect I will pass on them.

Regarding TQ I would rather not post my thoughts on them in a public forum. If you would like to know about all of their shortcomings you can email me privately.

It just sucks for all of us that Bill Meyer at USA STATS sold his business becuase he was the best. He always added all the features we wanted and it was just about perfect.

The search continues.

Here's what I've found for this season:

rotowire does not TIME stamp their moves-

Yahoo what you see is what you get-

customstat- still hasn't answered any of my questions.

All-star has done such a poor job with our basketball and hockey leagues I would hate to trust them for baseball.

still looking for a stat service that can handle 40 man rosters. 6x6 cats- daily trannies- time stamped- sort free agents by stats and teams etc.

Everything usa had!

Also very interested in this topic. Searched the message boards for website hoping this exact discussion would be up. Only wish there were more of a consensus on what is good. Have used allstar for two years in 13 man mixed 25 starter, 5 bench w/ some complicated keeper rules, and weekly waivers reverse order of standings. Allstar ok, but website miserable for searching free agents, sorting performance over discrete periods, etc. More good then bad, hoping for better out there. Used sportsline for years before that and espn in league infancy. Feh. Sportsline/commissioner actually ok other than terrible customer servie. Tanked our league by freezing rosters with a week left in competetive race three years ago, will never go back. Worst case or a stats site (other than actually screwing up the stats).

So what's great out there? Actually liked much about the site this used last year, very user friendly. Know they were terrible with the online midseason drafts and other input issues. Still, roster setting was easy as was searching fas and looking at team performance over past periods. Go to stats.com though and don't see any fantasy service available. Anybody have a great lead? Would be much appreciated. Thx in advance.

Still searching for a stats provider.

All-star is only charging $39 PER TEAM this season...Next year watch out looks like they are going to price rape eveyone for $55.00 a team.

I don't mind the fees if they just had the service and product to support it.

If I had to put a dollar value on what they currently provide it would be about $5.00 a team.

I tried to contact customstat.com again- Still no response- Does anyone want this void in busisness?

I guess not.

If you guys know of any stat providers that can handle a daily mixed league 10 man minors, 8 man bench 23 active players.

Please let me know.

Thanks

Very surprising nobody has a better site. Back to allstar. A lot mmore good then bad. How hard is it to be able to create a function where you can look at how your team and fas have done over a week, two weeks, three, etc. For all the shortcomings with the drafts, the site this used last year was very freindly to the eye and easy to use. At least in the weekly transaction setting. I'd pay for it in a heartbeat over allstar, but can't find where the site is. Is it created just for NFBC? Can that really be?
