    my team Dawg Pound is in league 114488. The canceled Bills/Bengals game cost me the championship($250). You could have used your player projections for any player in that game. Instead, I had one less player than my opponent. You short-handed me. How is that fair? Especially with money on the line.

    ******** and the decision to cancel week 17 game, there were better options than screwing everyone that had players from those teams. Any "winners" from this year are ********

    How about yahoo have fairness at the forefront of fantasy sports.

  • joe parsons commented  ·   ·  Report

    Played for years. Ready to boycott. Fair is fair, this wasn't fair. Wasted people's time.

  • joe parsons commented  ·   ·  Report

    4 players affected. "Would have" won. Playoffs are played off. Yahoo Fantasy Sports is spineless and dropped the ball.

  • joe parsons commented  ·   ·  Report

    Here's a idea, don't waste time on Yahoo's Fantasy Sports if they don't have the balls to make fair decisions, ****** "no solution" Yahoo. What a joke and a waste of time.

    Totally agree. How is awarding no points for all players involved in a cancelled game even a possible solution in Yahoo public fantasy leagues?? What a lame, cop out policy that impacts the final results of the season. Lose championship games that would otherwise be won???? Skew results from a whole season?? Really????

    Big fail by Yahoo on this. Shows a lack of respect for all those participating. Not even an attempt to do what is right. Call me disgusted.

    I agree, Yahoo made the wrong decision on the final scoring. Me too like many other got screwed..they should have used week 18 Bills and Bengals for the week 17 and it would have been fair - very disappointed to the end of the season....

    I guess I am a sore loser. But I hate to lose the championship due to another players injury. Josh Allen was at least the number 2 scorer of the year and maybe will be the number 1. But I realize that fantasy matters nothing compared to life and death and that almost happened. But I had the best team by far.

    Yahoo mishandles this situation. Teams should not have been penalized for having players from that canceled game in their lineups. Teams had those players in their lineup thinking there was going to be a game. No one knew this would happen. Yahoo should have swapped players from the canceled game with players on their benches. Yahoo screwed this up.

    I had a 99% chance of winning my game going into the Buffalo-Cincy game. Had already scored enough to win the game and the championship was taken away from me. That's disgusting!. I will never spend another dime on this site.You guys should be a shamed of yourselves.

    I have been managing multiple teams Yahoo Pro Leagues for 10 years, but I am seriously considering dropping Yahoo for fantasy football. This year our league had a team bench all their players for week 15 in order to intentionally lose and allow their opponent to get the last playoff spot. Despite multiple teams reporting it, Yahoo did nothing. Then, how the Bills-Bengals cancellation was handled was disgraceful. It would have been easy and much fairer to use Bills and Bengals scoring from week 18, rather then giving them all zeroes. But Yahoo just didn’t give a ****.

  • david nash commented  ·   ·  Report

    Let the bills and bengals players week 18 points count for week 17 is the only fair way. Fantasy football is a huge part of the NFL and they just let everyone down. I don’t think I could play again and have played for 20 years.

  • Chad Haydon commented  ·   ·  Report

    Allow commisioner to have control over teams in championship round to play the next week following a nfl game cancellation to determine an official winner with counting all player scores to get an official determination of winner instead of just saying that is it season over sorry your players were not able to produce potential title winning points for your team and no you cant move the championship to the next week

  • david nash commented  ·   ·  Report

    There was a better way to end the season. Many teams are affected by the NFL canceling a game. Yahoo just gave up and don’t care. Done with yahoo.

  • david nash commented  ·   ·  Report

    2022 fantasy football season was a complete failure.
