Once the iPhone app and rotisserie / total points options are complete. We will begin working on our next series of upgrades. Below are our current thoughts - please let us know if you disagree with our priority order.
Lets face it, we all like flea. I like it because a little guy like Ori had the balls to start it and hang with it. I know it's not NFL.com, ESPN, Yahoo or 1 of 15 other sites I could mention that have everything that we are asking for here. If they want to play with the big boys and have the people involved that love the game as well as the novice, all these items are required and not on a this should be first basis. Advertisers pay for people that use the site. More players, more money. Guys I play with on other sites won't even concider flea as it's so stone aged, when they can have what they want/need on another site. I e-mailed over 50 of my playing buds with the news of this phone app. My main response back was WTF are you talking about.
Would like to clarify something on the app - it is not just about competing with other fantasy sports app like Yahoo's Fantasy Baseball '10 or ESPN's Fantasy Football '09. It is intended for Fleaflicker users to manage all their teams, but also for any sports fan with an iPhone. There are pro scores that we believe are better than ESPN's Scorecenter or Sportacular. There is searchable news that no other app has. You can follow live fantasy leader boards and even import your fantasy roster from another site if you don't want to pay for their app. It is something that we know is not for everyone as we recognize there are a lot of people who don't have an iPhone or iPod. However for those that do we intend to have the best sports product out there.
