Anyone else

[FlaHawker 24]

Right...but it's just one of MANY features and functions the site lacks, along with the continuous downtime. Others have indicated this is the first time the site has been down, but that is far from the truth...several times this year the RT site has encountered problems.

Continuous downtime?? You be wrong again numbnuts. The first time all year. I suggest you buy a computer that works. User error!!

[Mephisto 15]

Ignore him. Mike is just an agent for Sportsline and feels he can lie and undo all of the damage I've done by stealing clients from their shitty service. It won't work. There are WAY too many very happy RTS clients that won't be going back to CBS, even if RTS folded up shop tomorrow.

Sorry phukface, but you obviously only visit the site once a week to insert your pathetic lineup....The site has had difficulty 4-5 times this year, often in the morning. Barb, Tim and Dan have each contacted me on seperate occasions apologzing for the delays, problems and such.....

 

So go play with your Barry Sanders 1989 Score box set......you're useless.

Do you write your own scripts? Perhaps you ought to give it up...no one is buying them.....how's the Wendy's job holding up?

 

what a numnut you are....

[mobb_deep 919]

I think you're all failing to recognize that MFL is better than RTS, Fanball, Sportsline, etc. etc.

 

This is like arguing about which car is better... the Pinto, Yugo, or Neon.

Mikey... this is our 9th year with RTSports and it's nothing short of spectacular. You question the credibility of other leagues based on what? Nothing... and that's the bottom line. It's understandable that your ignorance is solely based on your lack of experience on the site (and probably others for that matter) but to attempt to disqualify others because their opinion differs makes you look like a complete imbecile.

 

If you don't like it... don't use it. I'm sure they don't want you using their site if you don't get it. This site is designed for veteran FFBALL owners and Commissioners as well as first time newbie’s. Say what you will about RTSports but the bottom line is that not only are you in the minority... most don't agree with any part of your "assessment."

 

Over the years I have made a bevy of suggestions and most of the time they are willing to accomodate us. Again, they've been nothing short of spectacular.

 

I'm not going to question your fantasy credibility or knowledge because I don't know anything about you... but this thread is evidence enough for us to formulate our "assessment."

[Connorsdad 38]

Mikie every site does Maintenance once in awhile come on dude give them a break. Your assessment is just plain wrong. Actually i find it funny how wrong you are. RTS has worked fine the last 6 years. They do preventive maintenance so the users do not have any problems during the critical times like game day and lineups are due. Mikie just because your team is in the toilet don't blame RTS they didn't draft your sorry squad!!!

RTS

 

First of all, we have been using RTS for 7 years...and I am the commisioner of a league that is currently in it's 18th season. Each year at the post-season meeting, our owners ask to leave RTS due to the constant problems and lack of obvious functions they refuse to implement. I pursuade them to stick with RTS for one more year, hoping things will improve. This will be the last year.

 

In addition, if a site is down for maintenance, they should indicate that ahead of time...not send an email out at 10:30 am when Barb comes into the office and sees her inbox full of complaining users. Many leagues had their waiver wires set for yesterday morning (not ours)..I am sure they would have appreciated the effort by RT to inform them of the scheduled mainteance, something I don't believe for a second...I honestly believe they had "another" backup database problem and didn't realize it until the morning, then used the maintenance email as an excuse.

 

I could give a ratzazz if 7 people here love RTS, they are obviously the amateurs and enjoy accepting substandard service and features.

 

Enjoy.

[Connorsdad 38]

Yeah Mikie just because some people are happy with RTS that makes them amateurs. You sound like a whiney little girl talking about RTS, your one of them owners who people hate to have in there league who complains about everything, i bet people in your league are happy they have caller id. Your hatred for this website sounds personal what did they do how did they wrong you in such a way. This game is suppose to be fun in all the years you've been doing this you must of forgot that along the way. Goodluck the rest of the year using the terrible RTS.

Another vote of satisfaction here for RTS - we've used them for years. No site is perfect but they offer good performance for price.

 

> bet they just closed up shop

 

Didn't take long for him to lose his bet since they're back up.

 

> comical the ignorance here

> shows your intelligence level

 

Like not knowing fifth grade English (difference between worst and worse, its and it's)?

 

> These guys are the worse.

> I am the commisioner of a league that is currently in it's 18th season

 

Not just a clown, an illiterate clown.

Mikey... if this is your last season with RTSports -- that's great. Finish up the season and be done with it. Everyone has a right to his or her own opinion, but as Connor mentioned, your situation clearly goes deeper than just "routine maintenance."

 

Again, I don't know you but based on your stance here I'd venture to say that this isn't your 7th season on RTSports and you're simply using that in an attempt to validate your opinion -- an opinion no one here agrees with regardless. Furthermore I personally believe (and this is solely and admittedly based on a hunch) this isn't the 18th year of your league. Why do I believe that? The way I see it... let's assume for a second that your fantasy football "career" started when you were 12-years-old... that would put you at right around 30-years-old now and based on your posts, your ignorance (as it pertains to the subject), your language, etc... I just find it very hard to believe. Plus, I think most here would agree that any 30-year-old man worth a damn doesn't have the time to be bickering back-and-forth on a message board about insignificant (non-existent) issues on a fantasy league host site. For your sake (and that of other people/issues/responsibilities considered important in your life) I hope my hunch is spot on.

 

Keep in mind that 18 years ago we were still about 7 or 8 years from being introduced to a true online fantasy presence. Many of us Commissioner's can remember the days of grabbing a USA Today (or any other National paper) on Monday morning and having to tally the stats manually for each team line-by-line from the sports section -- a process I'm sure pains some of us to even think back to. Personally, I don't see you as one of "us." That's certainly not to say anyone who wasn't doing this back in the 90's isn't considered one of "us" because that's certainly not the case. But I'm confident when I say that those that understand my implied definition of "us" know who "us" really is... and I'm personally not buying that you do.

 

Good luck the rest of the way!

LOL....sorry pal, WRONG....

 

First draft was in 1991, Dan Marino was my QB and Emmitt Smith my #1 RB....IN FACT, to this date we still laugh a the overall number one pick of that draft by one of our members....Chip Lohmiller! Apparently he thought kickers would provide the most points, but did not realize the difference between the #1 kicker and the #10 is nothing.

In addition, like yourself, I used the USA today and had to phone in everyone's weekly results.

Then somewhere around 1994, I started using FFLM software. I could generate reports, print them out and send them in the mail to each owner....WHAT A CONCEPT!

Shortly after that, I began using Angelfire to create a web site by saving pages in FFLM as HTML.

Then in 2002, we began using RTsports. I can email you the PDF archive from 2003 if you like, they did not archive prior to that...at least not in our league.

 

Now, regarding your insults and opinions...they fall on deaf ears....you are correct, you do not know me, and that's a good thing.

 

I am still laughing out loud at your post.....so far from the the truth it's funny.

[holamolla 0]

We have used RTSPORTS for 5 years, and are finished with them after this....they are absolutely the worse.

 

You cannot seriously think their site is good. Every Thursday they change stats.

 

You cannot list Top Players in order of their total points by default (the default is 3-week average), and if you DO list them by total points, the number that corresponds with the player does not change...so if Brandon Marshall is the 5th ranked WR based on 3-week average, then you sort by total points, the "5" goes with him, even though he may be the 7th ranked WR. So stupid.

 

In addition, they do not include a message box when accepting or declining trade offers through the site, but they do include a message box when offering the trade....absolutely ridiculous.

 

They also have had continuous problems during the year with their message board. There have been 3 instances during the season where owners posted messages and the messages never appeared on the main page, only when you selected "view all messages" did they appear. When I questioned them, their response was "our secondary database was down"....all 3 times.

 

They have no clue what they are doing over there...

you actually think rt sports is the one who changes the stats

 

the top player thing is also totally wrong...

[MikieV101 0]

RT changes the stats after they are updated by Elias Sports Bureau, THERE...BETTER?...I know that CBS Sportsline did not change the stats for LT today...did they?

 

as far as the "top player thing", go ahead and sort by total points, then look at the very first column on the left. Look down the list....you'll see what I am tlaking about...

Elias and the NFL have made the following stat changes for Week 11:

 

so you're telling me you would rather go off the stats that cbs has instead of the official stats the nfl has? RT sports doesnt change stats the National Football League changes them.

 

and the default ranking for top players isnt there 3 week average, it never has been.

I would rather go off the stats that are made official by Tuesday morning, along with every other member of my league. Every week an owner wins a game by 1-2 points, and because of the way RT updates their stats based on Elias updates on Thursday, owners have to wait until then before making moves because they don't know for sure whether they won or lost.

 

As far as the ranking for top players being the 3-week average by default..you are wrong....it appears to have changed now, but up to a week ago, the default was 3-week, and that was confirmed in an email to me by Dan at RT when I questioned how STUPID it was....don't give a ratzazz if you never noticed that before, but again...you're probably in a very anemic league and only visits the site every Sunday at 11:59 to enter your lineup.

I have been on that site for 5+ years in 3 different leagues and its NEVER been like that in any of my leagues. you sound like a little girl who complains about everything, move your league, no one here cares, but you are spouting off info that isnt true. So every week you have had a game thats within 1 point and the final outcome changes because of NFL scoring changes? really huh?

Dude, the default has always been season average, not 3 week average. I have played on RT for the last 5 years (along with Yahoo, CBS and MFL). None are perfect. All have their glitches and all (except for CBS maybe) change official stats when the NFL does and accordingly, that changes scoring up until the start of the next week. It's a good thing they do so too. Wouldn't want to be in any league which preserves incorrect stats after the NFL changes them. I have no problems with RT. I like RT better than most of the others. Not sure what your venom and internet rage toward RT and anyone who supports it is. You are strange. You are also very nasty to other posters here. Try to chill a little and learn how to be civil to others.

I am still laughing out loud at your post.....so far from the the truth it's funny.

 

Mikey... you're missing my overall point. As I stated in my post, my opinion was "solely and admittedly based on a hunch." It was based on your childish pouting for the sole reason of not being able to find one person to agree with your assessment of RTSports (among other reasons that have already been addressed here by other contributors).

 

I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt on your years of involvement… but don’t forget that years involved doesn’t equate to expertise on the subject (obviously this doesn’t only apply to fantasy football) - in your case clarifying the difference is important. No one cares what you think you know -- and degrading other people because they don’t agree with you does nothing but make you look like the ignorant fool you’ve proven to be here.

 

As I mentioned in my last post… “For your sake (and that of other people/issues/ responsibilities considered important in your life) I hope my hunch is spot on.” According to you I was incorrect about your FFBALL experience - unfortunately that doesn’t say much about you. If my assumption about you being right around 30-years-old was correct… take a look back at your posts within this thread and tell us what they say about you? What self-respecting 30-year-old man has the time (or interest) to whine like a teenage girl as you have for the last few days? This goes back to what Connor said a while back about your issue clearly being about more than just RTSports’ routine maintenance. In general, guys like you are so bitter about your “real” life that not being able to get your way on a message board is something that eats away at you. Guys like you have no control over anything but the mouse on your computer. Guys like you love to run your mouth on a keyboard within the privacy of your own home… but when it comes to the real world… you are exactly what all of us here think you are. Message board bully… hilarious!

 

You think RTSports “blows for serious leagues with complex rules and big money,” and because others don’t seem to agree that makes their league inferior, “Your little $50 per man TD only league probably works fine there. Enjoy it rookie” and it means RTSports has “no clue what they are doing over there...” According to you, not agreeing with you means we are “insane” and that we haven’t done our “homework.”

 

You are laughable man! Let me clue you in for a second… you clearly have very limited experience in this world compared to others that navigate this message board (regardless of your so-called 18 years of “expertise”). I’m sure of this because I know many of these people personally and by reading through their contributions on the board it’s clear who knows what… and who is just here to try to win at something in life in order to fill a void they can’t in their real life… haha. That doesn’t mean the first-year fantasy football owner who comes to the board should be discredited – that’s not the case at all. It just means that some know/have experienced more than others in this world… but when people come in swinging their d!cks (as you have here)… just know that sniffing guys like you out is rather simple.

 

Being someone that works in the “sports industry” I come across blow-hards like you every day… and through experience you begin to realize that guys like you are a dime a dozen. I’ve found that the one constant with guys like you is you don’t even realize that people are on to you. They actually think very little of what comes out of your mouth (and allow you to continue to believe you are the authority on the subject because they don’t care enough to go to the trouble and the comedic value of your words is worth the price of admission).

 

If you want people to respect your opinion and/or believe you really know what you’re talking about… let me give you a piece of advice. Remember, there is ALWAYS someone out there who has more experience, has accomplished more, has been doing it longer, etc. (regardless of the subject). Maybe that piece of advice will open your eyes and allow you to be open to other opinions/experiences. Trust me – if you think that way maybe one day you really will know as much as you think you currently do.

 

NONETHELESS, let me get back to the actual issues at hand here. Pay close attention because I’m about to break you down and show how ignorant you really are. This will end the conversation and any credibility you thought you had (although I think you took care of this yourself a while ago).

 

*Disclaimer for all readers – I am going to talk to Mikey just like he talks to everyone else to give him a taste of his own medicine.

 

Issue #1 - Stat Changes

 

Mikey Quotes:

 

• CBS does not change stats on Thursdays like RT does....again you have no clue.
  
• CBS does NOT make the changes on Thursdays like RT does.......comical the ignorance here.
  
• RT changes the stats after they are updated by Elias Sports Bureau, THERE...BETTER?... I know that CBS Sportsline did not change the stats for LT today...did they?
  
• LT Receiving yards From CBSSPORTSLINE: L. Tomlinson 3 40 REVISED From RTSPORTS: L. Tomlinson 3 45
  

Did you even check CBS’ stats when you opened your mouth about this you raging idiot? They in fact did change LT’s stats to reflect the correction - that same day. What does that say about everything you said above? Complete imbecile!

 

As you know, Elias makes changes periodically and they are reported to the various media outlets. These stats are always changed in accordance with the rules of each individual fantasy league host site (FYI - RTSports’ stat cut-off time is noon on Friday’s). The only difference between RTSports and CBSSportline is that every week RTSports goes out of their way to announce the statistical changes on their home page -- while CBS just changes them and makes no announcement. Not a big deal to me but if we’re comparing the two it’s clear what the difference in level of service is in this case. Got it stupid?

 

Issue #2 – RTSports’ Top Player Rankings

 

Mikey Quotes:

 

• You cannot list Top Players in order of their total points by default (the default is 3-week average).
  
• As far as the ranking for top players being the 3-week average by default..you are wrong....it appears to have changed now, but up to a week ago, the default was 3-week
  

Default for the rankings on RTSports has always been average points per game. What your simple-minded ignorance failed to understand is that before the byes the numbers are skewed because RTSports lists the rankings based on the average number of points (per game) for each player -- taking into account the number of games they’ve played. That my friend is just logical! Why would you put player B above player A if one has more points than the other BUT has played one less game? But since you can’t seem to grasp the concept of logic… luckily for you, now that the all of the byes have come and gone… you’ll see that they have “dumbed them down” for people on your “level.”

 

And quite honestly… if you’ve been with RTSports as long as you say you have… you’d know that sorting the rankings EXACTLY AS YOU WANT them to be sorted is as easy as clicking on the category. If you want them sorted by Total Points, 3-week, or Average just click the damn button and shut your hole. Damn, you are a blithering idiot!

 

 

Issue #3 – Per Mikey: RTSports is run by amateurs and leagues who use RTSports are inferior

 

Mikey Quotes:

 

• LOL...you guys are...the extra cost for CBS divided by 12 guys is nothing....and the format blows these RT amateurs away.
  
• The site blows for serious leagues, with complex rules and big money. Your little $50 per man TD only league probably works fine there. Enjoy it rookie.
  
• Right...but it's just one of MANY features and functions the site lacks, along with the continuous downtime. Others have indicated this is the first time the site has been down, but that is far from the truth...several times this year the RT site has encountered problems.
  
• I could give a ratzazz if 7 people here love RTS, they are obviously the amateurs and enjoy accepting substandard service and features.
  

It just gets better and better doesn’t it!!??!! Hey idiot… you’ve been using them since 2002 for a reason. Are you telling us that in your 7th year you’re just now changing your stance? What is it that changed from year 4 or 5 to year 7? If their features, functions, servers, etc. aren’t up to par (as you say)… what’s the hold-up on your site upgrade?

 

Furthermore, you say that RTSports “blows for serious leagues, with complex rules and big money” (what an brilliant vocabulary you have by the way… haha). So what you’re saying is that from 2007 to 2008 your league went from amateur status to the WCOFF status? You truly are the biggest blithering buffoon I’ve ever encountered on this site!

 

Listen up chief… from your previous posts I think I can speak for everyone when I say… your “big money” and “complex rules” are the biggest joke this message board has ever seen. Let’s be honest Mikey… it’s clear that big money is something you don’t have (and may never have). Unless you tell me you hit the lotto… I ain’t buying anything you’re selling. You are a fool… and fools are treated as such.

 

It gets even funnier…

 

"Each year at the post-season meeting, our owners ask to leave RTS due to the constant problems and lack of obvious functions they refuse to implement. I pursuade them to stick with RTS for one more year, hoping things will improve. This will be the last year."

 

Wow… this is just amazing! So through your 7 years on the site you have to “pursuade” (hilarious spelling by the way – oh wait… the U key is right next to the E key so it’s just a typo – oh wait… no it’s not, it’s all the way on the other side of the keyboard) all of them to come back? You f$ckin’ idiot.

 

Essentially Mikey… you are an idiot of enormous proportions. Everyone here has sniffed it out and you’d be lucky if anyone here believed one word out of your mouth from this point forward.

 

On a serious note… spend some time with your family this Thanksgiving. It sounds like they haven’t seen you in a while – but more importantly it sounds like you need it. Plus you don’t want this to be the holiday dinner where your parents finally bring up charging you rent. Give them a break if they do though… you are 30-years-old and still sleeping in the same bed you were occupying in 5th grade … so it’s justified.

 

Happy Thanksgiving.

That my friend is just logical! Why would you put player B above player A if one has more points than the other BUT has played one less game? But since you can’t seem to grasp the concept of logic… luckily for you, now that the all of the byes have come and gone… you’ll see that they have “dumbed them down” for people on your “level.”

 

12 guys in my league (operating since 1991) disagree.

 

 

And quite honestly… if you’ve been with RTSports as long as you say you have… you’d know that sorting the rankings EXACTLY AS YOU WANT them to be sorted is as easy as clicking on the category. If you want them sorted by Total Points, 3-week, or Average just click the damn button and shut your hole. Damn, you are a blithering idiot!

 

You are absolutely correct....except for the insult.

 

 

Hey idiot… you’ve been using them since 2002 for a reason. Are you telling us that in your 7th year you’re just now changing your stance? What is it that changed from year 4 or 5 to year 7? If their features, functions, servers, etc. aren’t up to par (as you say)… what’s the hold-up on your site upgrade?

 

Hmm....didn't you read my post? I did not change my stance....our league is a democracy, one person alone doesn't make all the decisions....sorry Hitler.

 

 

You truly are the biggest blithering buffoon I’ve ever encountered on this site!

 

Oh, I find that hard to believe....keep trying son.

 

 

Let’s be honest Mikey… it’s clear that big money is something you don’t have (and may never have). Unless you tell me you hit the lotto… I ain’t buying anything you’re selling. You are a fool… and fools are treated as such.

 

I can feel the stress from just reading the words you type.....wow....please don't forget to take your medication.

 

 

Essentially Mikey… you are an idiot of enormous proportions. Everyone here has sniffed it out and you’d be lucky if anyone here believed one word out of your mouth from this point forward.

 

Whatever helps you sleep at night son.....I really feel for you....god bless you.

Thoroughly entertaining. Keep up the good work.

“Wow....you actually copied my post, but failed to actually read it? The stats posted from CBS were not updated at the time of my post. Now, perhaps they have been since..I have not checked...did you? LOLOL”

 

Wow this just gets better and better! What a raging idiot you are! Don’t you understand… the entire issue about this was you complaining because RTsports changes stats on Thursday’s!?!? Your EXACT quote was “CBS does not change stats on Thursdays like RT does....again you have no clue.” You even went on to say… “CBS does NOT make the changes on Thursdays like RT does.......comical the ignorance here.”

 

Do you get it yet? You were not only incorrect about CBS not changing stats on Thursday’s or later (because they in fact do)… but they actually don’t do it in as timely a manner as RTSports does. Do you understand? I can’t believe we’ve had to spell this out for you so many times. People have been telling you this all along and you’re still sticking with your stance? I’ve never encountered such a clown on this site in my life.

 

EVEN SOMETHING MORE HILARIOUS was when you said…

 

“I would rather go off the stats that are made official by Tuesday morning, along with every other member of my league. Every week an owner wins a game by 1-2 points, and because of the way RT updates their stats based on Elias updates on Thursday, owners have to wait until then before making moves because they don't know for sure whether they won or lost.”

 

Christ this gets more hilarious by the minute. Given that CBS changes stats on Thursdays… don’t you understand that the case would be the same whether using RTSports or CBS (OR ANY OTHER SITE FOR THAT MATTER). Just give it up buddy… you’re done here and that’s clear to everyone.

 

With regard to the default rankings you say that I’m incorrect and “12 guys in my league (operating since 1991) disagree.” I hate to judge these other 11 guys but if they do in fact believe what you say… it’s clear that your league is possibly the most simple-minded compilation of imbeciles in the United States. It’s not a matter of agreeing or disagreeing… it is simply FACT. Facts are something that cannot be disputed (just wanted to spare you the time of having to go to dictionary.com).

 

I can’t get over how good this gets…

 

“Hmm....didn't you read my post? I did not change my stance....our league is a democracy, one person alone doesn't make all the decisions....sorry Hitler.”

 

IF THIS IS THE CASE THEN DOESN’T THAT CONTRADICT YOUR QUOTE FROM BELOW???

 

“Each year at the post-season meeting, our owners ask to leave RTS due to the constant problems and lack of obvious functions they refuse to implement. I pursuade them to stick with RTS for one more year, hoping things will improve. This will be the last year."

 

You my friend are the most ignorant person on the planet. If you’re going to lie at least cover your tracks.

 

And by the way Mikey… give a read through this thread and then try to tell us how much better the alternatives are. Admit it or not… it happens on all sites and RTSports is on the light side in comparison…

I think the writing is on the wall here buddy. You have been wrong since day one and have done nothing but dig a deeper hole. No one here values your opinion… and that my friend is a fact. Think what you will… I’m just speaking for every other member on this site.

 

To take a page from Mikey’s mind-boggling language and quotes… “Do you write your own scripts? Perhaps you ought to give it up...no one is buying them”

Very entertaining post!

so cbs has been down since yesterday huh mikey? funny stuff

[jgcrawfish 232]

wow...this is great stuff.

 

To put it bluntly, CBS/Sportsline is for dopes. It was great when I started FF, like, an eternity ago. It's for tools that don't know enough and need help from a guru, and aren't smart enough to respond to trade offers directly. It's the "Romper Room" of FF sites. Were I to start a league, most likely RT sports would be first if not very high on the list. I've had many more problems with CBS/Sportsline in the last 3 years than I've ever seen with RTSports. In fact, 2 years ago EVERYBODY was given 50% off the price of a league the following year because the site was down so freakin much.

I think you're all failing to recognize that MFL is better than RTS, Fanball, Sportsline, etc. etc.

 

 

Related note to one of the OP's complaints: MFL gives leagues the option to apply the official stat changes received from the Elias Sports Bureau. They can be applied manually or automatically. It is done on Thursday morning which I thought was pretty standard.
