    I found out that it is definitely the commissioner that is cheating. I looked into it and found out that he also changed the points per rush for running backs from 1 point to 25 points. Somehow he made this retroactive to the previous 11 weeks and that is why the League Standings changed. Why does Yahoo even allow commissioners to make retroactive changes like this? Again, I would appreciate it if someone would tell me where I can report this abuse. Happy Thanksgiving.

    I logged onto my team today and found that 9 of the 12 teams in the league have had all of their players dropped. It appears that this was the work of the commissoner because the 3 teams that did not have their players dropped were his team and two of his friends. The other change that I noticed is that the League Standings has changed. It appears that the commissioner changed the points per rush from 1 pt to 25 pts. This was a retroactive point change so it also changed the standings. I was formerly 9-2 and in first but now my record is 8-3 and my friends record has moved to 9-2 from 7-4. Is it possible for the commissioner to make these types of changes? If so, how can I contact someone to stop this cheating? Thanks.

    It depends who is currently free agents in your league. With that said, I would definitely do the trade. I cant imagine that a TE is not availabe to take Lee's place and Ahman Green will likely get hurt again shortly. The only other issue is how much longer will Jackson be out. If it is true that he will be back for the upcoming week, you should take the trade.

    Not sure if this is the commissioner cheeting or a system error by Yahoo. I logged onto my team today and found that 9 of the 12 teams in the league have had all of their players dropped. It appears that this was the work of the commissoner because the 3 teams that did not have their players dropped were his team and two of his friends. The other change that I noticed is that the League Standings has changed. I was formerly 9-2 and in first but now my record is 8-3 and my friends record has moved to 9-2 from 7-4. Is it possible for the commissioner to make these types of changes? If so, how can I contact someone to stop this cheating? Thanks.

    Thanks for everyones help/interest. I attempted to report the issue to yahoo through the link that was posted and this is the response I got:

    "Hello, Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Sports. I appreciate your inquiry with regards to your Private League. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. While we regret any negative experiences team owners may have in Custom Leagues, Yahoo! doesn't interfere with Custom Leagues matters. Commissioners have full jurisdiction over the leagues they create. During the registration process for Custom Leagues, we took steps to direct your attention to the tools and authorities available to private league commissioners. We recommend that you try contacting your commissioner via email or your league's message board to resolve any disputes. Unfortunately, we can't remove teams from private leagues or act as intermediary between coach and commissioner after the draft has been completed. You aren't obligated to visit the team or league pages if youno longer want to participate in your private league. In the future, we hope to have a commissioner rating system available similar to a rating system you might find on popular auction sites. Thiswould allow managers to join leagues based on commissioner ratings and would also give managers an opportunity to give a negative rating to commissioners who don't run their leagues in good faith and a positive rating for those who do. I value your interest in Yahoo! Fantasy Sports. Whenever you have further comments or questions, please feel free to email me again. Thank you again for contacting Yahoo! Sports. Regards, Marshall"

    Looks like I am screwed. Oh well, the league wasnt for money but it sucks that I have paid attention to a useless league for 12 weeks. Time to get back to solely rooting on my lowly Bengals on Sundays.
