I've had an idea rumbling around in my head for awhile and think it's time for the 1st Annual FFLibrarian Readers' Choice poll. I want to know which fantasy sites and writers you all find the most helpful - and there's nothing like a good ol' fashioned poll. So here's the deal - I'm pulling together my poll right now using Google Docs (don't worry, you'll be able to answer with or without a google account) and am hoping to have the poll up and running for the entire month of November. In early December, I'll reveal the winners in each category. Now before I get too far into the poll I wanted to let you know the questions I'll be asking and give you a chance to respond in the comments section if there are any sites that I should be sure to include in the survey. I'm already including a lot (and I mean a LOT) of the obvious sites that I link to frequently, but please feel free you voice your opinions below just to be sure I cover all my bases! The questions will be:
- Which website featured on FFLibrarian is your overall favorite fantasy football resource?
- Which website featured on FFLibrarian has the best preseason rankings?
- Which website featured on FFLibrarian has the best waiver wire advice?
- Which website featured on FFLibrarian has the best start/sit advice?
- Which website featured on FFLibrarian has the best weekly rankings?
- Which fantasy football columnist featured on FFLibrarian is your favorite?

Thx for all you do.

Thanks!
I like Brian's take on Fantasy Gridiron Live. To me best entertaining show on Sunday mornings. Lots of great info and very funny. The librarian knocked it out of the park when she was on. Insert brown nosing here.
I also love the averaging of sit/start info out there.
Overall favorite = FFToday
Best preseason ranks = Fanball
Best waiver advice = Through The Wire on FFToday
Best start/sit = FFLibrarian consensus start/sit
Best weekly rankings = yahoo
Fave columnist = TJ on FFToday and always like FFLibrarian's suggested articles in NY Times Fifth Down blog.

As for news, what is most important to me is speed and accuracy. In some leagues where my waiver wire is first come first serve, a delay in a player's status update can kill the chances of getting his back up because somebody already grabbed him.
I've been playing in an IDP league for several years and this one is one of the best.
The FantasyPros911 IDP Ranking is the WORST!!! They don't know what they are doing... very inaccurate... and rank based on name recognition instead of this years actual IDP peformance. You can drop those MOPES.
But you're right Andrew name recognition, wouldn't want to play that right, dumb ass. Let's look closer at their Top 10. All have been the best at their positions all year long and your dumb ass is going to argue that Willis and Harris don't being at the top right. You're a fool. GO back to the crap site you came work for and man up and stop trying to bring down other sites.
Just saying
I also watch ESPN's videos and read their articles and chat transcripts.
Beyond those, I'll take a sometimes look at Yahoo's and NFL.com's stuff.
FWIW, I agree with Jason who mentioned the importance of spelling and grammar.
Along those lines, one thing that I've noticed that matters to me is site design -- user-friendliness, attractiveness, etc. While content is most important, if I can't find it or if it's a pain to read, or if it's ugly, I usually won't bother (or at least I will have a negative opinion of the site).

You have always made some really good resources available.
And I'm a big fan of FFToolbox.
Love the Librarian! Keep up your great work!
ESPN is good cept for the arrogant, not funny Matthew Berry. Tristan Crockett and Eric Karabell know their stuff.
Lets see how many analyst's have rung Stefania's Bell.
ESPN has sure gone beyond sports entertainment lately
You're reading their stuff on Yahoo, ESPN and FoxSports and you probably don't even realize it.
To Andrew, thanks for the nice words. I promise you I'm trying and will continue to do so the rest of the way.
To Brian Council, my name is Justin Curry and I'm the one-man-show at Numbers and Guts. If you are somehow inferring that Andrew is in some way affiliated with my site, I can promise you that he is not as I have never heard of him before his post. Simply put, I'm in the business of building bridges, not burning them. Trust me, I know as much as anyone the amount of time that goes into providing content each week and would only compliment anyone that attempted to do so - even sites that are deemed competitors of mine.
With all that said, let me be clear, I wish FantasyPros911.com nothing but the best, so lets eliminate Numbers and Guts from any conflict between the two of you and squash that idea right now.
Thanks,
Justin Curry
