MySynergysports No Longer Available

Damnit, that was a really cool site. I'm a little miffed that they are no longer offering the service to non-professional sources, even paid.

Is there anything else out there like it? Really liked that site.

Nothing I've seen either, though Vantage is up as a blog. You can't buy access, but there was a post on APBR asking for people to write for them and they give access to writers (as well as possible future compensation). I was debating it a few weeks ago, don't know if they're still looking.

Yeah I was considering too, don't know if I can dedicate the time though.

Does anyone have Synergy's data archived?

Yeah, that's how I felt, and when I emailed you wouldn't initially get paid but would get "credits" toward it in the future. So really you were almost writing for access.

That's underwhelming. Makes you feel like they aren't even 100% committed to their own service if they're almost hedging like that.

Yeah, its based on "shares" which kinda stinks, if you're still interested at all about info on writing, I have the FAQ the guy emailed me. PM me if you'd like it.
