PLAY FANTASY FOOTBALL ON FACEBOOK (ALL NEW FOR 2009)

SI.COM AND CITIZEN SPORTS HAVE again joined forces to bring you a free fantasy football application for Facebook, opening the world of social networking to every fantasy football fan. With SI.com's award-winning fantasy coverage and the following array of technical improvements, 2009 promises to be the most enjoyable fantasy football season ever.

*NEW MOBILE FEATURES: Set your lineup, track your players' stats and read the latest fantasy news on the new iPhone fantasy application.

*PRERANK PLAYERS: Can't be at the draft? Take time before to ensure that you get the players whom you really want by ranking your player preferences in advance and letting the autopick feature execute your plan.

*SET LINEUP IN ONE CLICK: In a crunch for time? Use one button to activate a statistical algorithm, which automatically starts the ideal lineup for your team.

*FANTASY FEED: Want to know whom your opponent this week is picking up or whom the perennial champion is starting in another league? Just check the fantasy feed to see all your friends' latest actions.
