Commissioner should be able to change Team Names/Logos
In my league we like to have a friendly punishment for whoever got last place the season before. This year it was voted that the league gets to vote on the team name for last place. As commissioner I thought I would be able to manually change other team names, but that doesn't seem to be an option. In private leagues like this why would you not allow this as an option? I would think the best route is more flexibility, and if people are doing weird things with it then the other managers can leave the league. This is…

Adding player uniform numbers
Hello. I would like to suggest adding the player uniform # so that it is easier to follow your player while watching the games on TV. For example, I have Corey Davis, Wide Receiver of the Tennessee Titans. Simply list his team as Ten #84. That way I don't have to find another resource to look up his uniform number.

Fix your IR slot implementation in Fantasy Football as it applies to the waiver wire
As currently implemented, a player who is listed as "OUT" may be placed in the IR slot. When the new week starts, all player status notations are erased until the NFL updates on Wednesday(?). As a result, a player who is "out" for consecutive weeks blocks the owning player from participating in the waiver wire /FA pool. The "out" status should remain until that status is changed by the NFL. Anyone who had Greg Olsen this year will understand.
Wed - place Olsen on IR, pick someone up via FA.
Tuesday - cut someone, move Olsen back to active roster,…337th ranked -
Team log should show fantasy points
The team log should show how many fantasy points players scored while on your roster. I always thought they did, but apparently not anymore. Right now all they show are raw stats; which are great, but ultimately fantasy points are the most important stat in fantasy football. Thank you!

Bring Back Old Design for Trophies
Please bring back the old design for trophies...this new design looked like a 3rd grader designed them. Seriously, they look atrocious.
Thanks!

Enable the posting of pictures to the message board.
Your message board is awful. Has this technology been touched in the past 20 years? Character limits? Unable to post pictures, or GIFs? The 'Rich' text editor is poor. C'mon Man, this is BASIC!! I guess we should be grateful we can post html links. Maybe next year we can gasp change the color of text. I've gone too far.
Also, half of the Gifs I send through your **** messenger either freeze, or disappear with no reason. Awesome! Such a great user experience!!
Were likely to leave yahoo next year bc of this and many other limitations.

Yahoo takes too long to process trades. Football trades should be able to happen for that week.
Make the trade review window SHORTER. Yahoo says it's 2 days. Sometimes it takes 3 or more though.

trades
this has never been an issue before in the past but when me and the other player agreed on the fairness of the trade that he wont get to use the player I gave him because it was after game day but I would still be able to use the sunday player. the trade review said it would process before. now after trade accepted it is not allowing it. this is a private league and STILL wont let us push this trough. can you fix this!? this is what we wanted to do

Require managers pay before joining private cash league
Is it possible to have another option for private cash leagues where a manager can't join the private league until they pay the buy in fee? Basically an entrance fee that's required when you join or else you can't join.
I'm sure I'm not the only commish that has managers who are a pain to collect buy in fees from! This would solve that problem.

The fantasy football page is horrifically slow. It never stops loading.
I am running the latest version of Chrome for Windows 10. The page is horrible. It just keeps loading more and more junk. All other pages like NFL.com, and Facebook just snap right up. Whatever ads or other junk you keep loading is making the site almost unusable even on a 100 MB internet connection. Please correct this !!!

Get better matchup writers
Who is writing the matchup ratings? Horrible. Is this on purpose? Ted Ginn facing bad Saints secondary.. he plays for the Saints! Stats wrong, opponents wrong on like 90% of players. Has to be on purpose to be that awful. WTF?
337th rankedHey Jason, thanks for calling this out. We’ll work with our provider to get these resolved quickly.

Thank you,

Trade Deadline Dates
Fantasy football has just opened... and I noticed the trade deadline is only customize-able for 5 specific dates (all which are Saturdays). What gives?! Why does Yahoo continue to limit commissioner customize-able settings? Commissioners should have as many customize-able settings as possible.

The rank displayed on the player's info window
When you have player's info window (yellow note icon) open, it displays the player's overall rank. I would like to see the positional rank for that player (maybe both positional and overall).

Add NFL Team Filter To Players Tab
In the Players Tab can you add a filter for NFL Team, so I can filter and look for players on a particular NFL team?
You have Status / Position & Stats, but no NFL team filter.
