Stop allow for unfair and fraudulent comments made in the Weekly Recaps under Matchups
Whoever is doing Weekly recaps is making unfair comments about why an Owner's Team lost in a particular, week, such as not mentioning they lost a player to injury early in a game. They are also posting comments under the Team Name, under Coaches talk, that the owner never made. Put a stop to this.

Final Grade
So you sent me two emails with my "final grade..." a league I got 4th in said "you've built a winner" and a league I got 1st in said "anyone can have an off-year." I'm not sure if this is incompetence, carelessness, or stupidity, but you're making me embarrassed to use Yahoo. Not that this is the first time I've felt this way, nor will it be the last, but at risk of quoting Chris Berman, c'mon man!

more pro leagues. There are VERY few options left and literally zero auction leagues until end of July.
Been doing pro leagues for nearly decade this year options are extremely limited. Zero auction drafts until end of July by July lst year I had done several. Yahoo is literally throwing money away. Open up more pro leagues to those who choose to draft early and often!

Need a way to get an “alert” when a player becomes available
If there is a way to get some kind of “alert” when a player becomes available, I haven’t found it. You should do that. Iow, if players get traded, they are still “claimed”. So I don’t care.
BUT if a player simply gets dropped (as a team picks up a new player and has to make room on the roster by dropping a current player), he is available and we should be alerted to that so we can try to pick up that “dropped” player.517th rankedHey Randy, this is something our team is working on at the moment. Stay tuned!

Make receiving AND rushing data available on player cards for RBs/WRs.
Having to dig for receiving stats for targets, receptions, and yardage for a primarily receiving RB is ridiculous. It should be on the player card within one click. It's not even on the same page! It's really clunky and I thought Yahoo Fantasy would have fixed it by now. ESPN carries this feature and it allows much quicker analysis of player data. Even if it takes an extra click on the player card, it is absurd that it isn't available as a key data point given the trends of receiving RBs.

Mock Draft Machine Medal
I participated in over 50 mock drafts and you aren't awarding the Mock Draft Machine x50 medal. Please remove it if it's broken or fix it. Also medals are a lot of fun and quite the competition in our league. You could benefit from some new ones from time to time.

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…

Hi -
Hi - Is there an API to extract the data for our league? We want to give awards at the end of the season so I am hoping to extract both scores and individual player performance so we can see whose tight end had the best performance, whose team won with the lowest score, the game with the highest combine score, etc. Generate some stats that aren't otherwise available from the platform.
Thanks

Multiple Division Fantasy Football League (48 Team League)
I've been running a 48 Team Fantasy fooball league (4 divisions / 12 teams each having their own draft) 11 week reg season with the top 8 moving on to a single elimination march madness style bracket. I've been using myfantasyleague but a lot of my owners did not like the user interface. Is there a way Yahoo can create this this type of league. The few sites that could do it, charged the commissioner a upfront season fee, which I don't mind. I'm just hoping yahoo can create this since yahoo's interface is the best !! :)

Customize veto votes.
ESPN league the commish can customize how many vetos a trade needs before it can be vetoed. I think Yahoo needs to step up their game and allow every league to customize their settings the way they want. 1/3 vetos is terrible. So many arguments and fighting b/c trades never go through. Please change it for this year and let the commish know so they can adjust it accordingly.

pre-draft rankings
I had Leveon Bell as #1 on my pre-draft rankings in my league. He went in round 7???? and I am just annoyed. Why pre-rank my players on Yahoo fantasy sports only to have it be not to happen. I double checked my rankings and he is # 1. Not only that, most of my choices as pre-draft selections are on other teams. ESPN here I come.....

More Roster Spots
we want to open a league with defensive players, with just 30 roster spots, we cant really do that, we are going to use ESPN instead because they do 40, if it were 40 or 45 spots we would gladly use yahoo instead

Secondary filtering of players has an unfortunate feature
Under "Player List", if I sort by some statistic and I then want to view the opponents of each player in that sort, I cannot do it. The system re-sorts players when "Opponents" is selected by some nonsensical algorithm, and then there are no further options for sorting (except alphabetical). When "Opponents" is chosen, it'd be nice to have the previous sort criteria preserved. Thank you.

What in the world happened to smack talk and posting GIFs and MEMEs.
BRING THE ABILITY TO SEND GIFS AND MEMES FROM OTHER APPS! I mean seriously what was the reasoning for removing this? This was a feature I bragged about to other leagues on other sites. Yahoo your in house GIF search is awful. Anything we post from another app doesn't upload correctly and only uploads as an image. I have been running a family/friend league in yahoo for 7 years and I really want to stay but if this feature is not put back in we will be moving on unfortunately. This is not an "angry food customer" rant this is…

Horizontal Roster View
Would be easier to view team roster/depth in a grid view...Teams on the vertical axis, Positions on the horizontal axis. Would be faster to spot teams who lack depth in a certain position and then target them for a trade.

Expand to NFL offseason
Please consider using the sister league of the NFL to run a Fantasy game during the NFL offseason. The AAF starts in February. It may not be feasible for a full blown game the first year without prior year stats but something like a Pick'em game could start to build interest.

Linking Leagues for Superbowl
I run two Yahoo leagues. I currently create two separate leagues, with two separate drafts. Week 17, the winner of the WFL-AFC league plays the winner of the WFL-NFC league in the superbowl. I have a spreadsheet and have to manually enter all the stats that handles it, but it would be super sweet if I could link the two leagues and have the winners of each play each other for the superbowl. Or one league with 2 conferences that have overlapping players and play each other in the superbowl.
