    Default Yahoo! Two-Week (Week 24) Finals Option (???)

    Does anybody know if there is a current option to set a Week 24 finals match-up to TWO weeks?
    My 12-team dynasty cap league (where I'm now co-commish) has done this every season in the past.

    Right now, week 24 shows up as a 7-day week only (and they even list the dates).
    I can't find an option to change it.

    Anybody else do this? Used the "two-week final" in the past?

    (I hate having to email Yahoo!)

    I think the consensus I got when I asked this question early in the season was a resounding 'no'. Hopefully Yahoo learns for next year

    I am pretty sure they have had it before, but lockout last season and Olympics this season have had them change their scheduling.

    Unf, I think Yahoo! (accidentally) removed some hockey friendly settings when they used the re-worked "Fantasy Football" platform for their other sports.
    (And, to my knowledge - there is no "two-week" fantasy football match-up...)

    They had a two week final up until the 2009/10 season when they removed it due to the Olympic condensed schedule. It didn't appear in the following season and I contacted them about it and their typical response was 'it's not available, send a suggestion to the product team, blah blah blah.' When I explained that it was there before and it was removed due to the Olympics, I never got a response. Over the last few years I've seen several messages/threads and the same type of response comes back with little concrete reason as to why it hadn't returned.

    Decided to revive this thread but not holding out hope:

    I doubt Yahoo gets their act together, but I'd love to see this option, especially for keeper leagues. Having a 2 week final would help minimize the effect of scheduling in determining the winner.....nothing worse than all your keepers or your stud goalie only having 2/3 game weeks during the final. If the final match-up spanned 2 full weeks, this would become much less of an issue and would make total man-games played less of a determining factor.
