choosing to start a new league on a non dynasty platform. not the best move. hoping to talk my home league guys into paying an extra 5$ so we can move to MFL for year round action.

free platforms are nice but it kills the league in the offseason imo

Doesn't MFL have a maintenance year-round as well?

And I would not say one week or so of maintenance every April "kills the offseason"..

It depends on what you want out of a league - for someone like me, who plays pretty basic PPR / Superflex / IDP leagues it is more than fine. Plus, I refuse to pay for a service for fantasy football, let alone one that looks like an HTML website I would have produced 20 years ago.

For stuff like salary and contracts - yeah, I can see why you would want MFL.

So the espn app for waiver wire and player trades has been open for me all the way until this maintenance. Hoping they get it wrapped up soon so I can make some more moves. Personally I really like the user interface with ESPN. I browsed the MFL website and just didn’t care for it at all. Plus the app support is awesome.

It's interesting to me that for all the criticism that MFL takes for it's interface, I much prefer it to sites like ESPN and Yahoo that have lots of fluff but limited options. I was looking for some very basic things this season and found out that without past years of the league there was no way for me to find what I was looking for so I did all of my research on MFL.

This update seems longer than normal... I wonder if they are launching something new. They did just launch ESPN+, it would be smart to add some Dynasty love to their site along with it. I hope it's something good and not just routine maintenance.

Yeah it is longer than normal.. what is ESPN+?

They did change their message from maintenance to sign-ups being closed, so I guess there is.. progress?

I will welcome advancements but am not counting on it.

Here's to hoping they don't over complicate it. Lol. I get the sign ups are closed message and then if I close the app completely out and open it back up it goes back to the football is down for maintenance message. Alternates back and forth.

I believe ESPN+ is just an App service to watch ESPN for those without cable that you can get on a Smart TV. Like Netflix but just ESPN.
I was going to test it out and see how it works for the draft next week.

My league is finally in the mood to do trades with the NFL draft coming up, and no one can look at their teams to do anything. UGHHH!
