Hey everyone,
I've started working on my projections for the upcoming fantasy basketball season and wanted to share a few findings I find along the way.
I don't think Patreon allows me to create tables in its text editor, so I've put the lists together on Reddit.
Here's a list of players who have different positions on Yahoo compared to last season: 2022-07-31 23:22:35 +0000 UTC

Hey everyone,
For those wondering what I've been doing these past few months, I've been working on a new design for all of the websites.
I'm almost at the point where I'm ready to share it with you, but before I do, I wanted to share some screen shots.
My aim with the new design is to make the interface a little cleaner and easier to use on mobile (I want to make it look and f...

Hey everyone - the following teams in the fantasy basketball dynasty leagues we run are looking for a new owner. They're all standard 9 category leagues.
Buy-in is normally $20/season (100% of the buy-in goes to league winnings), but I'll cover your buy-in for the first season (you just need to cover the following seasons).

So the results are in, after some polling and discussions with people it's pretty clear that you all prefer Discord over Slack, so we're officially moving from Slack to Discord.

Hey everyone,
Me again. Another common request has been to update the GP count on my projections from projected total games played for the season to the player's projected remaining games to be played.
This change has now been updated, and you'll see a player's projected games played when looking at the projections. This gives a more accurate and easier way to consume how many games...

Hey everyone,
I received a suggestion from a Reddit user a few days ago to combine some of the in-season ranking data sets like I do with the BLEND projection/ranking data sets.
Thought it was a pretty good idea, so I've put in a new ranking data set called MERGE30 - which merges the full regular season rankings data with the regular season rankings data over the last 30 days at a 5...

Hey everyone,
So here's the way authorization of ESPN private leagues works. Since there's no official API it isn't done by authenticating against a login, it's done by grabbing cookies from your browser when you're logged in.
These cookies don't expire for a year, so you can save them once and they should be good to use for the rest of the season.
