Yahoo's New Weekly Projections

Seriously, Yahoo?  We are now projecting player's weekly performance to the hundredth of a point?  Maybe it's my engineering degree talking here, but, last I checked, Yahoo wasn't even good enough to predict to the nearest point, much less hundredth of a point.  This implies that there is high accuracy and precision, of which there is actually neither.

  1. I'm with Scott here. Do we know if standard Yahoo scoring is going to go by decimals? It's kind of gross looking, like scoring at a gymnastics event or something.

  2. I think we have the option to set the standard for scoring, and if we change it the projections will change as well.

  3. It's already set to not allow fractional points. I don't know why they are doing this.
