We will continue to crank it out, that's why we started this Site back in 2005… to become the best and a Site powered 365-24-7.

What's happenin', Smitty?  Been a while!  Just to refresh your memory…you and I exchanged some dialogue regarding Turner weeks before FA period started.  I'm actually watching him inch his way up the the field against the Jacksonville 2nd team; CRAP, why Atlanta?  Clearly, 'it is what it is.'  I'm just hoping Atlanta doesn't feed him 350+ carries this year, and wears him down before the rebuilding period begins to take shape.  On a side note, Matt Schaub looks to be the real deal; I'm watching him carve up the Denver secondary; if he had another Tier 1 playmaker on that offense, he could be a Top-5 QB (keeper).  Assuming Schaub (and Johnson) makes it all 16 games…yikes, I'm thinking 3600 yards and 27 TDs.  (Fellas…take him in your re-draft leagues in the 8th or 9th round and you'll be very happy.  Steal of the draft! You can take your 3rd RB, then your TE, he'll probably still be there).

I can see why some guys would be upset about paying; personally, I'm in for the $20.  From a business-model standpoint, look into building a FFX sales team and build a revenue stream based on MORE advertiser banner placement and affiliate partnerships.  Your click-throughs are going to drop considerably this year.  You'll generate more money based on the advertiser partnerships when the site is free, in comparison to cutting your 'users' by 50% by way of hanging a $20 fee on them.  Just a thought.  Keep up the good work.

Where are you going to go to find out what Michael Turner had for breakfast each morning or read feature articles about Turner's undoubted greatness?

I purchased my subscription last night guys. I use this site more for the forums than anything else but I love to here other opinions too. I like to make evaluations of players myself but there is so much quality info on this site it looks like it will be worth the money. Keep up the hard work guys!!!

I'm an old school guy that used to keep track of scoring fantasy football out of the Philly Inquirer using a pencil because we knew we would have errors that needed fixing.  I thought this 'business' of fantasy football got smart when they started printing magazines in mid summer to get us to buy info.  That was 10+ years ago.

As the year have gone on, fantasy has become all about information.  What you know, when you know it.  This is worth so much more than any outdated magazine could possibly be.  Constantly updating rankings, commentary on upcoming studs, adding new stuff all the time, whatever you want… its here somewhere.

I admit to becoming a follower last year when the site was free, as I was scouring the web for “useble” information.  FFX was by far the best and I have no problem forking over my hard earned $20 to you guys for year round pertinent information.  This was the first year I did not buy a magazine, and don't plan on ever getting one  again. 

Love the site, and the constant flow of info.  I dominated my 2 drafts this year using your site as a source of information. 

PS - Its also earth friendly to not buy a printed stagnant piece of information that is outdated before training camp begins, even if you recycle it!
