Love the idea. A mobile version would be killer.
Some SEO suggestions. Turn your primary text into text. What are you: 'The ultimate fantasy sports assistant.' That should be your H1 text. All your subheaders should be H2s - or whatever, but not multiple H1 tags.
If you can, all that text up there should be text if possible. It will go a long way. As a recently addicted fantasy football player, I can tell you people are searching for words that you've turned into graphics. On a small marketing budget nothing beats free traffic. SEO shouldn't be a focus, but it is worth the small time investment to do the basic things - the terms NHL, NBA, MLB, NFL or words baseball, football, basketball, hockey never appear on your index!

mobile apps are on our roadmap indeed. I'm just not sure if people research fantasy sports on their cell phone that much... Plus Yahoo and ESPN already have decent iPhone apps.
