    What a CBS Clusterf**k!!!

    I've been a CBS supporter for years, but tonight's fantasy football experience was the last straw.

    We had a couple of hiccups with our auction, but it ran ok for 45 minutes, before it just totally froze up. No one in the league could get in. I go on Twitter, and it's a global issue. No one AT ALL could get into CBS Draft Rooms. ANYWHERE. CBS's Dave Richard said they were having systemwide issues and would probably not be back up tonight.

    It's probably the biggest fantasy draft night OF THE YEAR and CBS was caught totally off guard.

    That's it. I'm done with them, for all leagues. Never again.

      My league is running fine, but yes CBS is pathetic.

        We were able to get back in the draft room 90 minutes later, but the buttons wouldn’t work. So we called it. Now we have to do our redraft, scheduled for Thursday at 8, as a slow draft, and the keeper auction, which was tonight, on Thursday.

        What an epic disaster.

              OnRoto has an online draft room that we used in 2 of my baseball leagues... beginning of draft was delayed because they didn't do a practice draft beforehand as I suggested. The next week draft was flawless. Highly recommended and inexpensive as 99 bucks for the year with highly responsive site owners.

                I've never used the Onroto online draft room, but they always treated me right when I was playing fantasy sports.

                  Do they have an app? If not, that's a dealbreaker.

                    OnRoto is to fantasy what geocities is to the internet.

                      LOL, I figured as much.

                      That’s a no go. I would need a site that at least looks like it was made in the last 10 years to sell to the rest of my leagues.

                          The quality is in the bells and whistles.

                          It's gotta have an app and must work with FBGs.
