I've been playing FF ever since they started hosting it on the interwebs. Sandbox was great back in the day, but after they went to aweirdpay site, I swapped to Yahoo because most people back them had a yahoo account so it made thetransitioneasy. Its worked well, but now several of us want to step it up a notch.<div>
</div><div>Anyway, I'm looking for another site that might be a little more sophisticated in its ability to tweak the scoring system. I really want to do a head to head, dynasty, half point PPR league that allows you trade players for picks.</div><div>
</div><div>Anyone have any good advice on sites? I am not a fan of ESPN.com or CBS. I'm not opposed to a pay site if its worth it.</div>

i know with baseball, you can pay a fee on cbs for a keeper league and there's no problem trading picks. never done cbs football though.

espn lets you do all kinds of scoring tweaks, like an almost overwhelming number of possibilities.

outside of espn, yahoo, and cbs though, i don't think there are really many options. maybe foxsports?

I think it's a free site... don't know if they even offer advanced or pay features, but I'd avoid it no matter what. I was in 1 league about 3-4 years ago. Seems like the commish wanted to use it because it was free but offered more features than Yahoo. It was the worst fantasy experience ever.

It would never send you any kind of reminders, little / late information on the status of players, and sometimes the site would be down or randomly revert back to last weeks starters (for instance, your week 16 lineup would be set up based on week 14 - completely ignoring who you started in week 15). I missed out on the championship game because an injured player somehow worked his way back into my starters after being benched the previous week.

is the gold standard when it comes to fully-customizable leagues. However, I've never been a fan of their user interface but if you can get past that, there is truly no other site that allows you the level of customization that MFL does.

Those things listed can be done in a standard Yahoo league. MFL will add some more functionality and flexibility to some aspects of the league though, especially the dynasty format.
