Re: Help with Flash for my Fantasy Football Draft

[Christina C.]

have you tried any apps for the iPhone in the app store?  there has been a 
discussion on the viphone list but I did not follow it.  Sorry, I'm not into 
football and just deleted the messages without reading them.

 Hey all,
 
 Been a real bad two days as everything I have tried does not work
 whether using the Iphone of my mac. It is pretty pathetic that Yahoo,
 ESPN, and a few other sites still have such poor accessibility to
 screen readers. For example, I am in a few fantasy football leagues
 and pick em leagues, and they are completely inaccessible on any
 device. One, yahoo and ESPN conduct their fantasy drafts using a flash
 based java applet. The mac in safari will not even load any elements
 of the page, and using google chrome to test my system just loaded all
 gibberish on the page. I would have thought by now on Mountain Lion
 that these issues would have been addressed. Not sure what in the
 world ESPN is using to design their pick em pages, but that is awful
 as well, as their is no way to use Voiceover to make your selections
 and play along with your friends. If anyone has figured out any work
 arounds for these sites, please let us know. Thanks. I thought I had
 found an app that would allow me to live draft with everyone on the
 Iphone, I paid the three bucks for it taking the gamble, and was very
 happy when it was accessible allowing me to rank my players follow
 along in the draft, but of course when it came time for me to make my
 pick, bingo, something didn't work. So of course I couldn't make any
 selections.

Hey Christine,

I am on a lot of lists, and have kept a look out for a fantasy
football app that works with VO, but unfortunately have not come
across one as of yet, the one that I thought was going to work almost
worked but failed in one important area, making your pick
