[USML Announce] Goodbye CBS.....Welcome All Star Stats??

[jhwinick at aol.com]

There is one other matter that I forgot to mention.? The switch will require an additional $50 contribution from each league member.? Unless I hear otherwise, I will?assume that people factored this into their decisions.? Please send $50 to me when you have a chance.

Thanks.? The plan will be to make the switch tonight and start inputting the rosters asap.? We should be up and running by the weekend.

I prefer TQ Stats...I think it easier to launch the space shuttle from my 
kitchen than to interpret that answer CBS sent back to Mark.

I'll defer to you and Mark -- you have certainly invested more than anyone
else.
 
I'm happy to move if that's what people want.
 
I'm willing to stay put if that turns out to be best.

Gentlemen,

Recognizing that some people had concerns with the performance of All Star
Stats and acknowledging that some of those concerns were justified, I
believe that the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.  And in
this case, it appears that CBSSportsline is going to be far less
accomodating and more troublesome to administer than All Star Stats.  For
that reason, I propose that we switch back to All Star Stats.  

Before we go down that path, I do want to hear from as many people as
possible about their concerns that led us to leave All Star Stats in the
first place.  My recollection is that some of us were vehement about leaving
and we should definitely revisit those issues.  But I'm convinced that
whatever those issues were, they will be dwarfed by the problems that we are
likely to have with CBSSportsline.

Also, Mark B and I have discussed the logistics of switching back and at
this point, it shouldn't be too much of an issue.  Mark and I should be able
to get things up and running by investing a few hours this weekend, if not
sooner.

Your thoughts??

The King
