MFL is the best, by far. Not even a competition. It's so customizable and adheres to every type of format/feature/setting you can dream of.
Ive been running an original league through MFL since they started, have a few original owners.. wow its been a bit of time.
Knew the original owners, Kevin and I think it was Chris, anyway...
I think the reason why you hear some people say that they dont like MFL is probably because their commisioner doesnt have the skills necessary to build the site correctly.
MFL is so deep, that it allows total customizable options, importing CSS programming.
Those that say MFL is archaic really have no idea of how wrong they are. Its the complete opposite.
I hardly knew how to log in on a computer 20 years ago, but because of MFL, I now can design my custom graphics for my leagues.
MFL has been a learning tool for me, and my owners all love the site and a big reason why turnover in my leagues is rare if any.

Ok so we just changed from MFL to fantrax. Looks awesome and the commish likes it from that side. Anyone have experience using it?

I tried it once but decided to stick with CBS. I will say that they were very responsive to questions and I appreciated the quick customer support.

I'm too lazy to read through but what happened to Trophy Life? Was ready to launch and then 2 years later and I haven't heard a thing.

We use CBS, which is expensive, but we've had no problems with it since our league's inception. And the phone app, which is what most of my owners use during the season, is fantastic.
I use an app called 'MFL Platinum' on Android and it works well enough, but it can be kind of clunky or nonintuitive at times. I definitely prefer the ESPN/Yahoo app.

"Sleeper" added dynasty it looks like. I'm probably late mentioning this, but it looks promising.

Yup me too. I hate the MFL site. I use MFL Platinum for 90% of my league business. It gets the job done & keeps me active in my leagues.

But I have 2 redrafter leagues on Yahoo. Their app is 100x better than MFL platinum, which is 100x better than MFL's crappy site. On gameday, I'm honestly more tuned in to my live scores on yahoo. I like the real-time projections.

Started up my first Dynasty this year in Sleeper. For our group's needs it functions very well. It might not have all the data and sort-able tables ect, but it does four things better than other platforms:

1) Chat. Just wow. The focal point of the app is the chat, I thought it was a bit silly before the season began, but it has increased league activity by 1000% and it's been awesome

2) An Ad-Free, clean and modern interface. So many thoughtful design choices (they just added a slider under players' names that show who has the ball, how far they are on the field, the down, and yards to go)

3) It's designed for mobile first. So many other apps feel confusing in where menus or functionality is buried. Everyone uses their phones primarily for fantasy in our league (I imagine that is also true for many others). The mobile app actually gets updated a little quicker than the desktop version

4) Constant updates and phenomenal support. I guess this is only Sleeper's second year as a platform, and they are constantly adding new features or improvements (feels like every other week). In terms of support, just amazing. I had an issue where a player that was supposed to clear waivers after 48 hours took 72, I emailed support about it, they responded within an hour, acknowledged that this was expected behavior given the existing system but then proposed a solution to the problem and pushed out a fix for it the following week. I was blown away with their honesty and quickness to address an issue.

Been using RT Sports for 15 years for Dynasty .. It’s like $60 per year, something like that maybe it’s $80 can’t recall but it’s cheap when split up and the site keeps track of all future picks and players and runs all year..

MFL for most of them. Used Yahoo this year for the first time, not a big fan, but the app is good and I do like the live scoring much better. We are moving to Sleeper, at least that is the plan, looks like they have come a long way in a short amount of time. But they have a long ways to go to replace MFL in the majority of my leagues.

Really curious with this one. Commish hates MFL and is trying to get us to go anywhere else. Any info on Sleeper? Pros? Cons?
