BSPN

does google own espn?

Microfilm vs. Microfiche argument.  Sorry for my dated reference.  I'm old.  Old and crabby.

Don't care for it at all.....just to busy.  JHMO  Ick...

Less graphic hierarchy and more busy-ness makes it harder to read or scan.  Fail.

exactly.  used to get a nice little listing of today's articles and news and now it's a scrollfest hunt.  yuck.

Noticed the same thing last night.  I'm sure I'll get used to it but I'm not a fan.  I also hate SI.com's new site (well, new from a few months ago).  Just too much going on, causing the pages to load slower.  

I never go to BSPN, they offer nothing but crapola

If you use the archive page then SI isn't so bad

Try here for SI : http://mmqb.si.com/archive/   Its just a list of stories without all the crapola

Also with any web page, you can right click on a page and it brings up a menu of choices

Choose " View Page info" and it will bring up another menu of choices

Select " persmissions" and you can then turn off pop- ups, turn off the auto-load images, turn off any number of annoying features like java plug- ins etc. Once you save the permissions for that website they will always be in place every time you visit.

Its one way to make the web a little less ADD

The ESPN website sucked before, in general, and looks indecipherable now.

There is some good specialized content. I use their in-game box scores for NCAA football and basketball. The NFL division blogs and team blogs (Rob Demovsky for the Packers) are good. As are the European soccer blogs on ESPN FC. Grantland is technically an ESPN site and has the best sports/culture writing on the web IMO.

The rest is dreck.

April Fools prank?

Well, how truly gay is soccer?

They are not allowed to play soccer in Indiana

Then why did IU beat U.W.M. every damn time we played them?

Maybe they need to vacate those wins.

Poor goal tending?

I blame my eye black manager.

Were those shorts available in "Im Keith Hernandez but admire Chris Hanson" size? 

Re: Shorts: For 1982, those were baggy.

Beautiful hair is in the eye of the guy with the beautiful head thereof.

33 years later-----80 percent of it is still there.

If they showed soccer butts on the page, I'd have no issue.

The shorts?

Are you attempting to hide behind the goal post when a guy shoots?  Bad coaching.

He just has an affinity for big white poles.... not that there's anything rong with that

SO...MUCH...WHITE...  (why, it's just like Portland!)

Keil is a very hairy guy.  

He even has mustaches under his eyes.
