YahooAPI weekly stats url possible change about yfpy HOT 1 CLOSED

@austinbeauch something to note here is that if you remove the type=week parameter, the call will no longer be providing stats for a given week, but will instead provide player stats for the entire season. This is the case for both NHL and NFL.

However, if I recall correctly, Yahoo only actually lets you get player stats by week for NFL. Due to the continuous nature of NHL/MLB/NBA vs. the weekly nature of NFL, they don't delineate player stats by week. Instead you have to use the approach in get_player_stats_by_date in order to get a player's stats for a given date. If you want a whole week then you have to iterate through all the days of the time period you want. Mildly annoying since it requires more calls, but it's just how they do it. You can see this difference is slightly alluded to in the documentation here.

Anyway, thanks for your continued efforts to help me make improvements to yfpy, I always appreciate that, as well as you using it! 😃
