Espn is better, we should shift next year.

And head to head as the first tie breaker is stupid in fantasy football. I don't know why anyone would select that other than they love chaos and hate overall season performance.

Agree, but I'm pretty sure you change it at espn.

You're just mad I would have the head to head tiebreaker over both you and Flash

In what ways is it better?

[flash9286]

Better interface/design. The my team page presents information way better than yahoo, IMO. Plus espn's site is more tablet friendly.

No, I just don't see there being a rational basis for head to head being the tie breaker. Our league is the perfect example of why it'd be bad; Despite getting the 2nd most points against me, I've done pretty well at 7-5. You've put up the 3rd worst in the league, and had the 4th least against. You're saying that your 7-6 against my 7-6 is more worthy of the playoffs? How? Why

One thing I like about ESPN is you can easily track player transaction history. You just click on their names and you can see which fantasy teams picked him up, dropped him, etc. Can be interesting to see.

Also, ESPN projections are right there. Yahoo's take more fiddling to get. At ESPN, you can just click the player's name and see his performance in every game. Yahoo only gives fantasy points, not the actual stats when you click the player. That actually pisses me off about Yahoo. I don't want to know that Ogbonnaya had 7.56 fantasy points two weeks ago. I want to know if he did it on 70 yards or 10 yards and a TD, I want to know if he had catches, etc.

Because I beat you. If your team was so good, it should have beat mine, sucker

I know I benefited by the accident of schedule but I don't care

I don't know what I'm missing in that regard but I think the big leg up that yahoo has is that it makes managing multiple teams with multiple different groups of people, plus pickems a lot more efficient.

Yea,it is just easier to find germane information at espn.

It is pretty easy to manage multiple teams at espn. Don't know about pickems.

My team is better than yours. I've gotten more wins with more points against me than you. There is no objective statistical measure where your team is better than mine overall.

And yet I beat you

And yet I beat you

On that particular week, yes. If we played one another every week I'd be 7-5.
