Losing Haliburton and Chet really sucks

I suffered through Halliburton last year...hard times.

Funny thing about Chet. I watched him play in college...would go to Gonzaga-BYU games and for the life of me, I never understood how that guy didn't break every time someone ran into him. Looks like a stick figure.

Am I losing my mind or did yahoo make it more difficult to tell which players have games?

I did not see the difference, but sometimes it takes time till they update who is playing that night, need to check a bit later in a day.

Oh, I think I know what you mean. When I click on my team, I can see the upcoming game below players, but I swear font was larger and different or something, it took me a second to figure out who will be playing, I swear two days ago the way they showed upcoming games was still different, now it basically gets lost in the background.

I believe there used to be a column for games. But they now moved it under the player's name. (P.C. for those asking). I was looking at my team yesterday and thought no one had a game. Between this and getting rid of the traditional method of moving players they seem to be trying to make it unplayable.

Same happened to me, I thought no one is playing, then I checked my opponent, Frostbite, and I thought the same of him. I thought maybe its Thursday and they are dodging NFL again or something, but I checked the schedule and saw adequate amount of games. I just now figured out where to look, yeah.

Haha, glad I wasn't the only one who was confused :lol:

Thanks, I will pass along the feedback. I'm pretty sure that the number of people using/preferring the old roster setting style has shrunk the point where keeping does more harm than good (although obviously that isnt great for you). But I'm not sure what people think about the new location for the "today's game" info, so I'll pass that along.

I must just be weird. But I think being able to set each position where I want a player to play and then hitting submit is just a lot easier than the drag and drop method. It seems I can set more players in a faster amount of time that way.
Maybe that works better on phones, but I never do it on my phone.

Now I just tend to use the "start active players" button and adjust as needed. I am still trying to figure out its logic as far as who to start and sit but think it is a first come first server deal.

You dont have to drag and drop. If you prefer, just click on the roster spot with the player you want to move. Then all the places you move that player to will highlight. Click on one of them and the player will swap.

Weird week. Missing Jokic for the first part of the week and a few other injuries, I was consistently down 1-8 or 0-9. Scraped enough over the weekend to win 5-4.

Being on the other side of that made it a lame week for me. I think I was up 9-0 on Friday or Saturday. Still with the loss, I was able to hold on to 1st place. My guys are usually on fire one week and then on a slump the next week. Losing Cam Johnson and Noah Clowney to injuries could sink me though.

Would any more of my main players like to break anything? Ivey breaks his fibula. Smith breaks his hand in a shoot around. Cam's out with a sprain. This is getting annoying. This is why I hate fantasy bball. I know, wah wah wah, everyone else goes through this as well, but I need to vent.

So almost all the guys I just traded for get injured the day I hit accept. Anyone else want to see their players get injured? Trade em to me. Let's see how quickly I can fall from #2 to #20

I dont know who these teams are but this trade really looks veto worthy. Anyone else feel the same way?
