I think you'd get a lot of turnout from us hardcore folks, sure some may not want to give strategy away and all but just a thought. I am sure a lot wouldn't even be drafting their ideal team but testing strategies. Thx
No, we're not currently set up for mock drafts. Maybe one day when we get our new draft software we'll add that feature to get more people to come to the site, but our current setup isn't set up for them.

Hey Greg, any estimate on when the payment processor will be implemented and the 2017 drafts will kick off?

Sorry for the delay, but adding the new credit card processor is taking a little longer than expected. With any luck we'll start on Tuesday. No guarantee but I'd like to see the site live on Monday and drafts starting on Tuesday before the holidays. I should know more shortly, but plan accordingly for now. Thanks all.

since you are moving to a new processor I thought I would ask...... Can you use AmEx?

Yes. I know we can use that and I think we might be able to use PayPal through LeagueSafe. I'll know more once we get into the payment process, but I believe yes on both.

Since it looks like it won't start before Monday, I'm in. (House guests over weekend I should probably , like, entertain or whatever)

Unfortunately, we're currently removing all of the STATS logos and references on the site and replacing with SportsHub Technology. All of these changes are delaying the launch of the baseball site. Sorry about that, but there's text changes to the Rules and every page has STATS on it. All of that is being changed out now. Hopefully we'll get this damn site live soon and drafts started. We're already behind last year. Sorry folks.
