Just about every UI change Yahoo has made over the past 5 - 6 years has been bad.
* When using the Commissioner tools to invite managers, they import your Yahoo email contact list and display them in a big box. I don't want to invite people from my Yahoo address book. It's a big grid that takes up a lot of space, with hundreds of email addresses, and it can't be hidden.
They made this change several years ago.
They should have just had a simple text field, that auto-completes email address from your email address book, if they wanted to have that as a feature.
* But, for today's change, they changed the fantasy league pre-selected avatars for basketball. They made all of the background colors bright.
It actually applies to baseball too. I went to this season's baseball league, and I see those avatars are changed too.
I don't like it.
* Oh, one of the dumb changes from a few years ago was creating an alliterative team name for you. Now when you join a league, if you don't specify a team name, it will use your SN in an alliteration and form a name.
Examples:
* My Wondrous Pick Set
* My Super Pick Set
* nuraman00's Awesome Pick Set
* Amner's Genius Team
* Terry's Tip-Top Team
* Jurgen's Dandy Team
* Marshon's Dandy Team
Ok, they don't always have an alliteration. But you can see that they definitely generate the middle word adjective for you, and it sounds weird.
There is one league where two managers have the word "Dandy" in their team name.
