I'll probably get down-voted for this but "powerful insights" for fantasy sports? Really?<p>Amazing that people are putting their collective intelligence and resource into fantasy sports.<p>Like sports? Get off your ass, grab a ball and some friends and get out on the field/court.<p>What about pivoting to a site for finding local people to form recreational teams? I'd use that!

I don't have an NFL fantasy <i>team</i> per se. I pick the players I like most that happen to be playing that weekend. I might also grab a different player depending on the defense he's up against. Hope that helps!

Pretty interesting, I've messed around with aggregating stats on players, matchups, etc for my own fantasy teams and always wondered why someone didn't go and build a product around it.<p>Excited to see what you guys will be providing!

There are websites out there that do this, they're just not that great and usually only one sport specific. I'll definitely sign up for this just to check it out.
