First, with regards to theHuddle.com, when they went pay, I went away.   With regards to their boards, that was actually the first FF forum I ever joined. I found it to be a rather mean-spirited environment. From there my FF forum experiences went up-and-down until I got fed up and struck out on my own and here we are.
For one, this is a work in progress. I do have grandiose plans for things, and if you checked your intial greeting in your "Gridiron Private Messages" (link is in the upper right-hand corner of your screen), you might remember a link to a thread "Must Reads, especially for newcomers", which can be found on "the Sidelines" (I think about three-quarters of the way down page 1 at this point). Since you are even taking the time to ask this question, I would REALLY advise your perusing through that stuff. You will come away from it all with a better idea as to what is up here. Bottom line, if you are looking for a different kind of FF experience from the usual and are into watching a site evolve from nothing into something and being part of, i.e. substantively affecting (within a framework, of course), the growth of said site, this place is for you. If you are looking for the finished product, just want to ride in the back seat, so to speak, and observe the "drivel-fest" and don't mind pop-up ads galore, the experience this place has to offer may not be what you are looking for. That having been said, you have checked out some of our other features that already exist, right? E.g.:
"the Gridiron Newsstand" & "The REAL Feed" -
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/newsstand.htm;
Our sparse, but slowly developing "Fantasy Articles" section -
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/fantasyarticles.htm;
The GBRFL home page, where you will find information about a unique type of league I may someday run on a grander scale here... I am actually dipping my toes in the low-end this year by running the GBRFL2, a FREEBIE -
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/gbrfl/;
The CBFL home page, where you will find info on another type of league I may someday run on a grander scale, and of which spin-offs like BW's IDP league are already popping up (as well as spin-offs on other sites... just know in whose head that was born, though) -
http://www.fantasyfootballer.com/cbfl/;
And, then, there is the "Fantasy Football League Alliance" (FFLA) project, which fits into things somehow, I think... hope (if you happen to have a league site, I would suggest looking into this) -
http://www.geocities.com/naffliu/Partner.html.
With regards to the "Grand Master Plan" I have for this place, I am not going to show my cards any more than that. If you go about doing your homework, sifting through threads here, you'll get a pretty good picture of what I am up to.
NOW, I would love to hear some of the dudes who are "on board" (with me) here explain what they perceive is up with this site in their own words... why they were drawn here... what they would like to see come of this place someday..., etc., etc.,...
