Wow, I've never seen more idle/meaningless words on the internet, and that says a lot!!!
You have an incredible number of people all saying the same thing (bring back classic, or create something that works like that instead of forcing the current UI disaster upon us), and you ignore every single one of them.
Is there any chance of you putting a usable version of Yahoo Finance back out there, or is our only option to go elsewhere, after years of being dedicated users of your previously great product? Is there any chance at all of you actually listening to your users?

Looks like Yahoo fantasy really needs to put some competent management in place. Horrible product decisions like this and the player card redesign are gonna drive leagues away. Yahoo has been a fantasy sports leader for over 20 years, with many leagues being hosted here for that long - are you really going to let incompetent product management cause this much damage and drive away this much of your loyal user base? PLEASE LISTEN TO YOUR USERS!
That said, do people recommend ESPN, CBS Sports, or some other site at this point? I've hosted all my leagues on Yahoo for decades now, so don't know what the next best (or now much better) options are.

Horrible idea! Being able to communicate with the full league is critical to running a good league, and many (most?) will not use anything labeled "chat" on the internet. Horrible idea!
Granted the new player info page is an even worse change - is Yahoo actively trying to kill off their fantasy leagues? If so why not just say it openly and cancel things things instead of killing them slowly?
To the admin comment about a "collapsible dock on the right-hand side" - fixing some of the horrible space usage may be nice, but this just adds to the major overall issue of overuse/misuse of javascript. Many users don't want some overactive page that is designed more like a video game than a data feed/viewer. Even more so if it performs so horribly badly (speed/memory) that it takes forever to load and consistently crashes the page.
The main problem with the new UI you are forcing on any users that you are not flat out driving away, is the overuse of javascript vs the clean, simple data focused classic UI. We want info, not flashing/updating overactive junk that's forced into active windows. We want simple/inactive data in a clean, easily viewable UI. The classic UI did a great job at that. The new, video game style UI is not going to be what many users want no matter how much you add more collapsible sections and other more over active stuff to. We want exactly the opposite. We want a clean, simple UI.
