Do not remove the Today's Game column
On 11/20/2024, the column of today's game (or whatever it was called) is gone. If the player has game it shows under player's name. What's left are the not important Ranking and Fantasy columns. It is much more difficult to see if a player has the game with the new format.
The Ranking column doesn't even work (the current ranking is just a -). The Fantasy column is useless (%Start %ROS), these info doesn't matter anymore because players is already on your team.
Please don't implement changes to make your product worse. Easily to see if a player has game…
Thanks for your feedback, I will pass that on to our product team. This information can now be found underneath the player's name.

Bring back the option of manually setting lineups rather than only the drag n drop option
Please…I beg you …bring back the option of setting lineup the old way and not only the drag n drop way . About an hour ago I was checking my lineup on my iPad . Apparently when I swiped down it switched a player in the Utility position to the bench without my knowledge. So when I checked it again at 5:05pm PST. My player Tre Jones had been SWITCHED to the bench for Odinoby. Needless to say it was a horrible feeling to see a healthy player on my bench when EVERY stat is crucial during finals week. In…

Yahoo Refuses to Respond to Complaints
I've submitted several complaints to Yahoo Fantasy Sports and Rep Derrick about cheating, collusion, and abuse and they refuse to respond or take any action. They have also colluded with a team owner and retaliated against me for reporting the cheating, collusion, and abuse. Yahoo is a scam and should be avoided in the future. I'm taking my business to CBS Sports as Yahoo is a scam site, in my opinion.

Update the Tiebreaker options
This is my 2nd time submitting this and I'm trying to understand why it's not being implemented yet even tho it makes sense and is the most fair way to settle a tiebreaker. Tiebreaker for regular season should be based on which team won the most total weekly matchups in the regular season for head to head category leagues. (ex. if team1 won 11 weeks out of 20 and team2 won 9 out of 20, then team1 should win the tiebreaker). Please add this as an option for tiebreakers and please provide better explanations on the existing tiebreaker setups since…

Avoid Yahoo Fantasy Sports
Avoid Yahoo Fantasy Sports
They allow and condone cheating and even collude with team owners to help them cheat. They also punish owners for filing complaints about the cheating by silencing them. Yahoo runs a fraudulent fantasy sports website and is all a scam, in my opinion. -
Wired for Science (EWL) Cheats and the League lets him get away with it because he knows someone who works for Yahoo in my opinion.
Wired for Science Cheats and is colluding with Yahoo Fantasy Sports, in my opinion. They are setting their lineups in the future so they're able to move a player from IL to the active roster while then then still keeping that player on the IL on future dates so other players can be made active. This appears to be a loophole in the programming of the website, but is cheating nonetheless because he's able to rotate 16 players onto his active roster each week instead of 13 players like every other team owner in the league. He's been doing this…
Thanks for reaching out regarding your fantasy basketball league. The team placed the players in their IL spots when those players were injured and eligible for the IL. They are allowed to keep players in their IL spots as long as they want, but if those players change to a status that is not IL-eligible, they will not be able to add any players or make any trades until they are removed from the IL.
When the players were injured, the manager edited lineups for future days in advance in order to keep those players in the IL on some days while having them out of the IL on others. They are allowed to edit future lineups in order to do this. They did not move the players to the IL spots when they were healthy. They were not able to add any players or make any trades once…

CLEAR WAIVERS
Clear the waivers for 3/16. I've had to stay up all night for my playoff matchup. This is unacceptable. At least, let us know what's going on. As a commissioner in a cash league, I can't fix the mess you created when people couldn't make the appropriate moves b/c waivers haven't cleared

if a player misses 2 games with a day off in between
please tag him IR elgible cmon
Hi Melanie,
Basketball uses the IL and IL+ roster position:
- IL eligible designations - Injured (INJ) or Out For Season (OFS).
- IL+ eligible designations - Out (O) or Game Time Decision (GTD).
These statuses are determined by our data provider and are defined as:
- O - Projected to miss less than 7 days or players who are currently suspended.
- INJ - For players who are projected to miss or have already missed 7+ days or 3 games due to injury or personal reasons, whichever occurs first. If a player is injured mid-game, the day or game in which the injury occurs counts as the first day or game of the injury period.
- GTD - May or may not play, determined prior to the game's tip-off. This status may also be used for recently traded players.
Thanks,

Keep Me Out of Fantasy Basketball!
Yahoo is completely wrong to sign up people for Fantasy Basketball. I did not ask to sign up and never will, and I despise the basketball alerts and the entire Yahoo team that decided to make Fantasy a nuisance.
The league that you signed up for is referred to as an "Instant Draft." This means that you're automatically placed in a Public league once you enter the draft lobby. Once the draft is over, it's not possible for you or Yahoo to remove or transfer your team from the league. It sounds like you accidentally joined this league without realizing. Yahoo will not place you into a league without you doing it. You may have unknowingly clicked on a banner at the bottom of the app that showed that said "Draft Now".
We apologize that we can't be of more assistance, but do know that you're not obligated to visit the team pages for the entirety of the season. You can disable email notifications (https://help.yahoo.com/kb/edit-yahoo-fantasy-team-yahoo-account-info-sln6128.html) for your team if you'd like. In the Yahoo Fantasy app, you can either hide your league from the home screen if…

league activity
It's frustrating to see great players get stuck on idle teams. If there's no activity for 6 weeks, the rest of the active team managers should be able to bid for players on that idle team.

Hello Yahoo team.
I want to provide you feedback. I'm playing fantasy basketball on your app and having so many issues. I am seriously considering transferring my leagues to a different app next season unless I hear or see tangible efforts or results.
First, my feedback is about fantasy basketball, but that option doesn't even appear in the list.
Second, I tried to send an email through contact us, when I click submit request, nothing happens.
Now...
As a commissioner, so many options are available to desktop only. Why? In 2026, that can't be fixed?
