GBThey allow owner collusion Updated They allow owner collusion. No mechanisms to prevent one person from having several teams. Trades aren't voted on. Commish never denies a trade. I actually suspect it could be their own bots integrated to give "house advantage". All I know is I've been in Fantasy Leagues for 30+ years and have never seen the things I've seen in Apex Leagues. Beware! Ok..little update after Apex replied. They do have "mechanisms" that are as easy to bypass as creating a couple accounts and sending in 2 fraudulent forms of ID (they don't do formal checks against the ID you send in..AFAIK). When it comes to betting, gambling, anything profit-motivated there will be folks that take advantage. You can surely take advantage of Apex Fantasy League. I've seen some of the most suspect moves imaginable that, again, in 30 years of running and participating in fantasy leagues with "real" people...not anonymous strangers..have transpired. Stuff that takes the fun away from playing. And, I realize when anonymity is prevalent things are going to play out quite differently than when you know your fellow owners. But, some of the things just gravitate into the bizarre. For example..A last place team just traded off Kelce (arguably the most valuable player in the league now that Mcaffrey is on the shelf) for Najee Harris.the other players involved were pretty much a wash. Basically, a trade of Harris for Kelce. Harris, albeit a rookie with potential, ain't showed anything on a struggling Steelers team in decline. Potential just means you ain't done it yet. Kelce has his whole career and big-time the first couple weeks of this season. THEN, the same guy that traded Kelce put $400 of his $500 budget for a 2nd string RB Cordarelle Patterson. 15 weeks still left in the season and he spends nearly his entire budged on a back-up. He didn't own the starter to even give it handcuff rationale. There were 3 other trades before the season even started that were semi-odd. But, I held my tongue. When it started rolling into "you're playing with my money and corrupting the league land" I protested. Commissioner (they do get back to you fairly quick) said mine was the only protest so he couldn't do anything. If mine was the only protest I believe one of 3 things a)The commish flat isn't getting all his email (I would never suggest he's lying) b.)I'm playing with a league of owners that really don't care c.)Collusion. If it's not collusion it's owners that just shouldn't be participating because their extremely suspect actions affect all of the rest of us that trust everything is on the up-and-up. And, I suppose, that's the Pandora's Box that playing in online league's with people/things you don't know open up.

GBState of the Art..5 Stars I have played Fantasy Sports since 1991 (Baseball with friends, later Internet Leagues) and Fantasy Football online for about 8-10 years. Apex is incredible, flawless software, easy pages to navigate and conduct Draft--BTW I prefer "Slow/e-mail" Drafts which they offer many of--and everything foreseeable covered. The thing that sets them apart (above) IMO is the reachability of the Site's operators via multiple avenues if necessary to reach them. An unequivocal 5 Star rating. I only wish they did a few Slow Draft Fantasy Baseball Leagues.

GBAwesome Place to Play Fantasy Football! I've played with Apex for two years now and have tried out pretty much every site there is. I've done up to 18 leagues in one season and can honestly say none of them touch the excellent structure and customer service these guys provide. They are fair, honest, and lightening quick to respond if I ever have a question (Sometimes even at 2am). They also have a very unique way of scoring which provides the best way to determine the best teams making the playoffs. Definitely give them a shot if you're looking for a fantasy football home.

GBBest Online Money Fantasy Football Site I have ever played on!!! I have been playing fantasy football for 8+ years, I started on Yahoo/CBS/ESPN leagues and eventually moved to other sites like Masters. There are several things that set Apex apart from all the other sites out there, firstly their Payouts, by far the best you can find online. Second is the Format, each week you play two games one head to head against another team and the other against the average score. I love this because it evaluates your team against every team each week so the best teams will not suffer for a high scoring loss, they still get some credit for being such a high scoring team. And last but not least is their Customer Service, absolutely outstanding. If you ever have any kind of issues they are there nearly 24/7 to help out with whatever you need.
