Afshin,
the easiest way to accomplish this is to create a new schematic component
with only three pins, your common pin and your two outside resistor pins.
You can then create a PCB symbol to represent the two resistors end-to-end
and have the three pads on that symbol.

Make a new part which has three terminals with two resistors. Sort of a small
resistor network.

Hey All,
In most cases I don't have the luxury of modifying the schematic. If possible
can you build a footprint with a multylayer pad with a drill zero? If so
build one and overlap the pads on the common point to the 2 resistors.

Good idea, but don't forget to turn off the component placement clearance
rule if overlapping the footprints.

Afshin,
I am sure this is not exactly the answer you may have been looking for, but
I have used the same technique for a configurable PCB.
In my case I increased the overlap of the resistors so that the pads
separated from each other. True, the body of the resistor in place would be
on top of a
What I have done for this is to create a 3 pin part (SCH and PBC) with an A
side and a B side. This should work fine.
