Commissioner Corner Message Board

yahoos response to my email in regards to Briere:

Hello Carolyn,

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Fantasy Sports.

I do apologize for the delay in response to your inquiry. We are
receiving more emails than normal during Fantasy Football season. We do investigate and respond to each customer's email individually, and in the order that the email was received.

I appreciate your inquiry with regards to player position eligibility.

We submitted position eligibility reviews for the following players late last week:

Briere, Daniel
Byfuglien, Dustin
Clowe, Ryane
Cole, Erik
Dumont, J.P.
Franzen, Johan
Frolik, Michael
Kesler, Ryan
Lupul, Joffrey
Nash, Rick
Oshie, TJ
Primeua, Wayne
Rolston, Brian
Ryan, Bobby
Sharp, Patrick
Sturm, Marco
Tkachuk, Keith
Versteeg, Kris
Zetterberg, Henrik

Players may be eligible at multiple positions during the current Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Hockey season. Initial position eligibility was determined based on past participation and information supplied by the teams during the off-season.

* All position eligibility requests are reviewed, compiled and forwarded to our data provider who makes the final decision on position eligibility.

* Please understand since Yahoo! is not responsible for modifying position eligibility, we cannot speculate on future changes or comment on the decisions made regarding individual player(s).

* There are no set criteria (minimum number of games, minutes, etc. at a new position) for position eligibility. A new position will be added when our data provider determines that a player's primary position has changed.

* Players will never lose position eligibility which means they can be played at either their old or new positions for the remainder of the season.

We appreciate your feedback. While we'd much rather address each request personally, it's simply not practical given the nature of the review process. Whenever you have further comments or questions, please feel free to email me again.
