    Why did Yahoo sports change their website?

    New site sucks, doesnt even show inning scores. Anyone know how to get to the old page?

    If that thread was a city called Yahoo, then it would be located in Syria. Those people are revolting, and threatening to take their business across the street to ESPN. Basically every post represents a person with a pitchfork.

    Same shit USA today pulled last year. I no longer use that site. It was great for in depth NFL team reports. If anyone used that and has now found a suitable replacement, post a link.

    scoreboard daht cahm has a nice look, but you can't see lineups, so thats out

    also you can only see the schedules for the current day

    need to be able to see upcoming schedules and past results

    i guess espn site is the go-to site for now

    anyone have a better one post, post all suggestions for a replacement

    yahoo was great because they had team pages that were easy to use, and scores pages that were easy to read and use

    the team pages had trustworthy and smart basic team summaries, and you could easily see and access a team's future schedule and past results, and check important numbers easily

    the new site is another fukin wannabe slick site with a ton of bells and whistles crap you dont need, and less of the info and harder to access info that you do need

    it sucks

    you cant even open an individual game in a new tab!

    it was a great go-to site fir the basics, and then you would of course look elsewhere for more specific essential info

    but for the starting point, it was great, now it sucks, worse than espn even

    ESPN sucks too much crap on the side and score boxes are too cluttered with crap I dont want to see unless Im in a single game page

    CBS is probably the best so far, lots of scores with fast auto updates. Dont like how the screen moves when updates are available. But layout is high ram slow cpu's and phones cant use this

    Yahoo now doesnt even have inning scores, color scheme makes me want to rip my eyes out. They want me to go fkn blind?

    SBR odds has the most scores but too small and not enough info for games. Like the lines given for each game tho, comes in handy sometimes.

    Please someone must have another good reliable scores site that is clean with lots of scores
