That's great Eddie. I know we can increase the number of leagues this year, but things are still being held up. I'm doing all I can to get this cleared through the NBA. I hope to know more soon. with the landmark baseball court ruling, WHY DO YOU NEED TO BE LICENSED BY THE NBA??? [/QUOTE]Because we do a lot of other things with the NBA (like the NBA.com Fantasy Basketball magazine which is now on newsstands) and the other leagues and there are advantages to working with them. These deals can turn into great promotional partnerships if done right, which I hope to do. Not only that, but the CDM decision is being appealed and it's still a tough subject to discuss.

STATS is also the official stat provider of the NBA, so they are not doing back-end support for non-licensed games, as UFS explains above. I want to work with them on this. Trust me, I have a great idea to take the National Fantasy Basketball Championship to a premiere level next year and doing this right in 2006-07 could lead to that vision. So everyone hang tight for now.
