It's too late to sign up for basketball, and baseball hasn't started yet. To sign up for any Yahoo fantasy sport, make sure you have a Yahoo ID and go to fantasysports.yahoo.com. Every sport has its rules. All of them are free, but they have add-ons (like live stats and extended player rankings) that you can buy if you want.\n\nAnyway, you get in a league with other fantasy managers. Everybody drafts a group of real players, and the stats those players pick up during the year are added to your fantasy team's stats. You can trade players with other fantasy managers if you are weak in one area. Good luck!

I've done Yahoo Fantasy Baseball, and I've done CBS Sportsline Fantasy Football.  Sportsline is much better - better stats, better news on the players, better live scoring - you get what you pay for.

If you go to NBA.com  , you can find some podcast to download and listen to. I do this with MLB.com for fantasy baseball and just looked on the nba website to find that they have podcast there also...... I love the MLB podcast for Fantasy.....

yeah bro it's not to late to join a  Mid-Season Fantasy baseball leauge.  i actually just joined one on yahoo. it's my first time ever doing fantasy anything but i joined a leauge set up a live draft and i should start playing June 16. \n\nSo if you want to join a Mid-Season Fanasy Baseball leauge make sure you join before the 15th. So you can be ready to play by the 16th. If you can't make it to your draft yahoo will pick for you or the smart thing to do is create a list and rank the players you would pick first and if you can't make the draft then yahoo will pick your players based on your list of ranked players.\n\nI also joined a NFL league through yahoo. and that one is cool because you still have time to create a league of your own if you want and have some of your friend join your league. You can pick what day your Draft will be anywhere from now thru the end of August. You can also join an existing NFL fantasy league on yahoo if you don't wish to start your own league.

Erm, fantasy football would depend much upon which site you're registered to play on, and in which country you're living!\n\nGenerally, you pick a team of 11 (or more) players, which is usually restricted by a budget, or by only being able to pick so many players of a particular position.  The fantasy league will be linked to an actual football league on which you score points (for example if you're playing from the UK, you'd score points on the FA Premier League).\n\nYou then have to look at results of the games, and you'll earn points if the players in your fantasy team have scored a goal, or assisted a goal, or stopped the opposition from scoring if they are defenders / goalkeepers.\n\nThat's about the basics... but most sites will also allow you to transfer a number of players... meaning you can bring in people scoring lots of goals, and take out players who are injured!

I'll try to join your league. I've also set up one and we need 5 more players, if you are interested in joining another Yahoo! Fantasy NBA league, I am inviting you and everyone here at Yahoo! Answers. League ID is 218266. The password is 1234567\n\nGood luck this season.

for the first week the StatTracker is free. this applies to the four major fantasy sports, baseball/basketball/hockey/football. you can only have live stats with StatTracker. and each StatTracker is its own application, you can't, say, buy it for hockey but also use it in football. you'd have to buy the hockey StatTracker as well as the football StatTracker.\nStatTracker is the only way to fly in Y! Fantasy Sports.\n-nny

of course. Yahoo has a fantasy football league. I think its one of the most popular. I play fantasy football, hockey, baseball, basketball, all on Yahoo. All free of charge, very nicely customizable.

http://fantasysports.yahoo.com of course. We've had the biggest and best fantasy leagues around. ESPN last year tried to match us, but couldn't handle the load, as you noticed.\n\nWhy I like it - well, I work on it. But besides that - what's most important? A rock solid platform - we've got it. ESPN had troubles last year and so did Fox sports. Fox doesn't have fantasy baseball this year - their platform is having trouble. cbsSportsline, well, they are the only ones without a free game. Draw your own conclusions.\n\nWe've got the largest community of fantasy players and are always working to satisfy your needs and demands.  Because a lot of the time, they're right in sync with our own. You know that if something annoys you, it annoys us too - cause we're playing all the games as well. We're trying to reach out to the fantasy community more and have started a blog - http://blog.360.yahoo.com/ysportsblog - we're open for comments.\n\nFeature wise, all the games are more or less on par with each other - the product managers in all companies spend a lot of time comparing each other's offerings. Though it won't be like that for long - and so if you want to stay on the bleeding edge fantasy wise, try us out.

check the leaderboard and forum for fantasy basketball - its the same for everyone who purchased it (myself included) - its still jacked up - probably crappy programming locking it up after the free period was over - hopefully they'll fix it soon - its pretty annoying.

Well....you got yourself into a little trouble here.I can't imagine nobody noticed this while playing week in week out.\nBut the anwer is...you can't,unfortunately.I've checked in a league that i commish but the playoff settings are locked.\nNow you have 2 options:do it yourself and let the owners mail their lineups,or find a site that you can still start a league at.(maybe fanball.com...not sure)

There are several. I have settled on Yahoo, it allows enough options to customize your league and your scorring. CBS/NFL do one, but you are a bit more limited. Plus, odds are most of your friends already have a yahoo account. Just make sure you sign up for the free, and not for the premium league they try to sell you.\n\nESPN did bring back the free league last year, but for all the cool features you have to pay.

u draft a team and u tell yahoo what time u want to draft it. There are 10 teams in the league. If u do head to head league u face teams one on one if you do rotisserie then the person who has the most points in the end wins the league. The points are determined by how well your fantasy team of players does in real life. For example if u drafted brady and he threw 4 TD's he will get more points if he only threw 1 TD. U need 1 QB 3 WR 2 RB 1 TE 1 kicker and 1 team defense to start every week. Some bench spots are available too. If your player has a real life bye the week u play someone u either put someone in from your bench or check waivers and pick them up on your team. U can offer trades to other managers too.

It may still be baseball season, but many die-hards can't wait for the next Fantasy Football season to begin.  Plus, depending on the size of your League, if teams managers live in different towns, or there's money involved (and there almost always is), these things may take some time to set-up and organize (especially if the friends in your League are immature, jobless, and unorganized...like mine!)  I've found it's best to create a League mid- to late-July, and to have our draft in late-August (that way we can have a 2 or 3 preseason games under our belts.)  Hell, I'm getting excited!  I may create my League right now!
