this league reminded me of how much i hate the Yahoo Format... It is the clear worst Fantasy site that i have played on... With that said, my team just sucked... and unfortunately i did not make enough big moves to overcome that...

If it was a standard Yahoo league (no flex) then all those RB's didn't do much for you since you can only start 2. This was my first yr in Yahoo and went RB heavy in 1 (losing record) and WR heavy in the other (winning record). With Gordon out the first 10 weeks your WR's were pretty weak (in a 10 team league starting 3).
As for the most pts and losing record, schedule likely did you in - bet the other team had some of their biggest totals when they played you. That sucks - and is the one glowing hazard of a 'head to head' format vs total pts. ....

Just like any other site, u you can customize it(for the most part) however you like. Scheduling I'm sure plYed a huge role, but I doubt the site itself did you in.

Andre Johnson is currently mid-30s in my PPR league and high-40s in my standard league. That is not good enough (obviously, judging by your record) for a 10 team league.
Hopkins stole the show there.
You should have traded one of your many good RBs for a better WR.
Hindsight is always an advantage when looking at an issue though, and I've been in your shoes a few times myself, having a lopsided team that outscores others by a lot, but still struggles in the W-L column.
