Dear Registered Member:
 

Only two weeks into the regular season and player injuries are piling up. Are you spending a lot of time keeping up to date on what's happening to the players on your fantasy teams? Or poring over reports trying to find someone who is worth picking up off the waiver wire in your fantasy league? Championship Package members signed up for our SMART Alerts don't fret much as they get injury updates on their players throughout the week, along with suggestions on potential free agent acquisitions. Alerts even go out Sunday's before the games start, letting subscribers know about whether any of their players have been declared inactive.  

 

But don't take our word for it, take Bill's, one of our SMART Alerts subscribers:  

"Your Smart Alerts have been super this year! As always, love your site!"

 

SMART Alerts and our Power Analyzer tools help you in every aspect of your fantasy roster. Upgrade now! 

Which fantasy football website has the most knowledgeable members? That's the question our friends over at FantasyPros.com are asking and every registered member (paid or free) can take part in their weekly challenge. Every week they ask 10 questions on who to start between 2 players. Simply pick the player you think will have the better fantasy performance that week. It takes about 1 minute to complete and each week they post the results. Are YOU up to the challenge? Get the details and play for FFS in the FantasyPros Forums Challenge!

Another exclusive for Championship Package members is access to our chat rooms. And this Saturday, September 24th, Championship Package members can chat with our Fantasy Football Analyst Russ Bliss from 2pm-3pm Eastern, 11am-12noon Pacific. Russ will try to answer as many questions as he can and share his opinions on whatever fantasy questions you may have. So be ready, and join Russ for an hour this Saturday in our General Sound Off Chat Room! Note: you must be a Championship Package member and logged in to access the chat room.

Behind strong performances across all positions, with players like Tom Brady, Matt Stafford, Jahvid Best, Darren McFadden, Mike Wallace, and more, Forums Moderator James and his team Rage of the Red Ant took the top spot week 2 in the Lineup Contest!

His team's performance was also enough to catapult him into first place thru 2 weeks in the overall season standings. Remember, we play each week for fun and the total points leader at the end of the season gets a Trophy, a free lifetime membership to FFS, and we also donate $1,000 in the winner's name to Play It Smart, an NFL-sponsored charity that teams student-athletes with an academic coach to strengthen classroom skills and build leadership qualities. The contest is open to ALL registered members at Fantasy Football Starters and we encourage you to take part in the 2011 Lineup Contest!

While we pride ourselves on the accuracy of our Power Analyzer predictions, no person or predictive algorithm will ever be perfect. Unlike many sites and experts who only show you what they got right, we also show you things we got wrong. Here is just a sample of some Power Line-Up Analyzer (PLA) hits and misses from Week 2.
