Come on guys- I have been playing FF for over 10 years in ESPN; CBS and YAHOO. One of those other competitors offered it over five years ago and it is very fair- here is why. As you know there are many injuries every week, or, some players have bad matchups for a particular week. To be eliminated from the first or second prize based on one weeks results is very unfair ( especially after surviving 13 weeks of injuries or poor performances. Just like last year, my team was 11 and 2 in first place after 13 weeks but performed poorly in weeks 14 and dropped into the 3/4 place matchup- that is unfair. One week my team gets 140 points and loses but the next week it gets 250 points and wins. Total the two weeks up and let that total be measured against the opponent to be able to move on. Come on, it is a very way for weeks 14 thru 17 to get a final winner

I do not understand why other platforms are able to offer two week playoffs against the same opponent (combined score is the winner and moves on to the final round (for another two week playoff--same format). I have been playing FF for over 10+ years and have utilized the two week playoff format in either ESPN or CBS (can not remember which one) a few years years ago befiore i came over to Yahoo in 2021. How can they offer this but your techies don't have the skill set????
In addition, why can't $$ awards be given for the teams at the end of season (before playoffs begin) such as team with best record, 2nd best and third best AND THEN award $$ again for the playoffs winners??? Teams often do well throughout the 13 or 14 or 15 week season and should be rewarded for that. They drafted well, used the system weekly to improve their lineup or replace injured/IR players on their roster--quite an amount of time is devoted toward winning each week. They go into the playoffs and have a bad day or, one or more players get hurt or, benched by the players coach (to save them for the NFL playoffs) for the playoffs and that teams loses their matchup or matchups and receives no share of the winnings! How fair is that?????Why is your platform not equal to other platforms in the industry??? Rather disappointing because I feel YAHOO is advanced in some ways but not a leader in the industry AND THEY SHOULD BE!!!!
I hope somebody at YAHOO actually reads and discusses these comments with senior staff for improvements to your platform and what you offer your customers. CHANGE IS GOOD and IMPROVMENTS CAN ONLY MEAN AN INCREASED MARKET SHARE OF THE INDUSTRY.

Award winnings (in paid leagues) for the season winners (1st/2nd/3rd place)--they work their lineups for 13 weeks and should be awarded $$ not just someone whose team gets hot in the playoffs and beats the league winners . To win a league for 13 weeks is much more difficult than two weeks of playoffs when many NFL teams are resting their players or they are injured. Split the winnings for the season winners and the remainder for the playoffs.
Also, make the playoffs for two week intervals (weeks 14 and 15 for the first round)-the cumulative scores for the two rounds moves on to the next round (weeks 16 and 17) to determine the playoffs winners. When I called these these two suggestions in on a phone call in January 2025, I was told it was going to be discussed before the next season begins--so, was it discussed? Other companies like CBS and ESPN have been able to have two week cumulative playoffs, why cant YAHOO ?????Frank Wissell

Why is it that other companies can offer two week playoffs (ie weeks 14 & 15 for first round and cumulative points for both weeks provides the winner (who move onto the next round)--same for weeks 16 & 17. WHY IS THIS SO DIFFICULT WHILE OTHERS HAVE OFFERRED IT FOR YEARS. YOU HAVE THE BEST PRODUCT, MAKE IT SUPERIOR! Same request for three years now (where does it go, into the garbage???)
