<insert all the typical CBS Sportsline comments of frustration>

We are currently experiencing technical difficulties.

Your data will not be lost. Please try again later.

That is 3 Sunday's now with problems 15 minutes before kickoff.

we've been with sportsline for YEARS now and this is just par for the course. We're going to complain but nothing ever happens.
 
Why are you waiting until 15 minutes before kick off. I have been on since I woke up today. If you wait until 15 minutues before kickoff you deserve not to get on since we know how bad CBS has been this year. Just my 2 cents

 
I am quietly fuming again. I've sent email after email to them. No response. I wish my league mates would get as fed up as I am.

Someone in my league just made an add/drop and I have to approve it.
 
I have been a staunch CBS supporter for years... and this season is just killing me.

Downside? I am not the commish this year for the first time in 10 season.

Ugh.

 
Thats why it's so important to keep your team on paper. That way you can call someone in your league and put in a lineup. ohh wait CBS is back up!

Because I went out partying last night and just woke up?

People want to make lineup changes due to the weather.

It is still fun to complain. The product was more stable when it was free. This issue screams of lack of resource (bandwidth/hardware) on their part.

What?!?! You don't hit the same web pages over and over between 10am-1pm? The wind could have changed direction in Philly or Jerry Porter may be poised to put up 300 - ya never know. :(
 
I pulled my league from CBS after the first week and went over to MFL. The owners weren't too happy with me at first. Now they love me. No problems, and 1/3 the price.

If I only I was in charge of my other league thats on CBS. I loathe their service at this point.

 
just emailed the commish...told him to pull the plug on this ####### operation. :hot: :hot:

Have had no problems this year with either ESPN or MFL.

:rolleyes: What a stupid comment. Some people simply don't get it. :wall:
 
yeah.. i think they get a bad rap overall on this forum but today is some bs.

maybe the strong winds blew their power supply down :rolleyes:

 
I'm lobbying our league to get rid of cbs next year. We've kept it only out of convenience and the league history, but if they are not going to do anything to fix this crap then it is a waste of money IMO. MFL is where it's at. I am in one league through that site and NEVER have any issues. CBS is garbage!

Now that's irony...last year they were horrible.CBS Sportsline has become too big for their capacity. However, they should at least be moving the commish leagues to an isolated pipe and leave the free leagues subject to these timeouts.I'm going to try again this offseason to get our league moved- keeping the historical stats isn't worth the loss of service from week to week. Plus for our entry fee, that leaves more $$$ for prize money since MFL doesn't cost as much for league hosting.

Two great posts. That is the problem in my long-time league. We went from paper to the free Sportsline product and have remained since - nobody wants to lose the history of stats. I agree - MFL, especially since Live Scoring came onboard - is that much better.
 
Anyone else notice they don't tout the website at the beginning (or other portions) of live game telecasts anymore?

edit: I see they have the scroll at the bottom of the screen touting the site. Gumble (or whoever) just mentioned it also during Jax/Philly game.

Commish's hate this site, owners love it.

I can't get my league off this POS.

I wouldn't mind it so much if they had even a shred of customer service but they don't.

I guess the only way to be vocal about it is to post what a POS it is on these kind of forums.

I just lodged a complaint with them as well. You would think for the money they charge that this shouldn't be an issue.
