option to roster a punter. net yards, inside 20,10,5 etc...
its a huge part of the game and not represented. -

You know, I liked having longer field goals with more but I moved my 50+ back to 4 since a long field goal shouldn't be worth a TD

Yes, this should be an OPTION for leagues that want it.

Everyone write a comment on this until they're blue in the face and have no option but to change it. Please!! Those decimal points are huge in my league! Yahoo is the only league that does not have this that I know of...
It is 6 points for a 60 yarder Yahoo! not 5 or even 5.5!

If every yard counts for RB's, WR's etc. then it should this too. Totally makes no sense for a 40 yd FG count the same as 49 yards.

I Love Yahoo's custom scoring options, but would like a few more: #1- Enable Win, loss, and tie +or- for both QB's and team Defs. bonus points #2- Enable penalties committed/drawn +or- such as pass int. drawn for a receiver/QB, or a holding call against a player resulting in negative points, in increments of 5 yard, 10 yard, and 15 yard penalties, etc... #3- instead of only offer bonus points for 40+ yard efforts, offer bonus points for 20+ & 30+ & 40+ yard efforts at each position. #4- Offensive fumble recovery yards gained as well as def and Special teams fumble recovery yards gained for specific players. #5- Kickers field goals offering a per yard amount instead of a range, example: Field Goals 0-30 Yards= 3, each additional yard over 30= .10 (ex. 48 yard field goal = 4.8 points), also with a negative amount on misses. #6- team def points and yards given up equaling a per yard and a per point amount instead of the range. example is 0 points given up= 12 points, and each point given up = -.5 points, then 0's out at 24 points given up, and similar with yards given up on a per yard basis. #7 points for onside kick recovery for both players and team Def's. #8 for PPR, have a ability to differentiate the PPR amount between RB's, WR's, and TE's, example: Receptions RB= .5, Receptions WR= 1, Receptions TE= 1.5 #9- Junk Yards/points: If the team Def. Team is winning by 24+ points at any time in the 4th quarter, then from that point on, the value of all points and yards given up will be reduced... (–.5 points for every point given up instead of –1, and –.02 points for every yard given up (+ or –) instead of –.05... The same applies if the team is up by 17+ points with 5 min. or less left in the game, from that point on, all of the yards and points given up AFTER that point are reduced as the same above. However, if at any point thereafter, the opposing team gets within 10 points, then it all becomes nullified and the entire game scoring goes back to the regular scoring... #10- A player does NOT become “locked” in his roster position at game time... Instead, the player becomes “locked” when they enter into the game. The only exception is for team Def. And kickers, they become “locked” at game time, as long as the kicker is “active”. If the kicker is “inactive” then they will not lock in and you will be able to pull the kick at any time during the week until the week ends. #11- Any player cannot score less than 0 points... So I don't want any player, including team def. To score less than 0 points (no final negative points for any position) #12- be able to play more than 30 roster positions. #13- Team def. bonus points for kickoff touchbacks, kickoff's inside the 20, punts inside the 10 yard line.

Other sites use their stats. In finals tonight and my goalie has two assist s. This is nonsense

For the same reason pitchers don't have their batting stats counted in fantasy baseball: that's not what they are there for.

John Hillburg commented
This is fantasy hockey, not fantasy skills competition. And GMs just discussed ways to make shootouts less a part of the regular season. As they should.

I don't see what's so dumb about this Trevor??
If that goal counts, decides the game, and gives a team one extra point, why isn't it a goal stat??
No logic that you try can work. Go ahead.....

Takeaways, giveaways, and faceoff percentage would be welcome. The idea with special teams points would be nice (as would shootout percentage.)
