    Anyone STILL hate the new ESPN.com website?
    I remember there were some folks pretty vocal that the new website sucked when it first came out. Anyone STILL hate it or miss something they used before?

        Now that they added box scores to each game's link on the front page, rather than only gamecast, i have no big problems with it. Their video player still kinda sucks, and they sacrificed "sleekness" for ease of use, but I don't hate the site anymore, I'm just indifferent to it.

              Love the old ESPN better. Way too much BS. I wonder how much RAM you lose running the new page? Has to be the most ever for a webpage.

                The old old ESPN was horrible (couple of years ago). Way too much going on with too much black. I hated it.
                I really like the layout.

                    New one is garbage. Too much crap, takes forever to load, crap on mobile. Just give me the fukkin' gamecast...I don't want 3 fukkin' steps to get there with the site crashing twice.

                      I hate ESPN for everything except the articles. Insider crap is the only reason I occasionally visit. Oh and I do sneak a podcast in now and again.

                      Money called it, it feels like it uses way too much memory, takes 20 minutes to load the thing. CBS much better for scoreboard watching, sometimes the java bugs out though and it gets annoying.

                        New website is a disaster. Original website was much easier for referencing. It's like they did everything to sabotage it. It's like a puzzle that hasn't been put together. I absolutely despise it.

                            ESPN is utter garbage aside from Schefter and a few decent team reporters.

                                      I always have to reload it. A crash waiting to happen. Will see what it does during football season.

                                          Takes a day and a half to load up scores pages. Also very slow response to scrolling.

                                              I already posted in this thread, but I had a change of heart. Although the new version stinks, you get used to it just like anything else. The original is always the better version for most things except for cell phones and some electronics

                                                    I am stunned by how far ESPN has slipped. Hate the new website, never even go to anymore. Most of their reporters are trolls, like Smith and Bayless, or mouth-breathers, like Herm Edwards, or bimbos, like (take your pick, except Michelle Beadle). They've missed the biggest sports story in years--not deflategate, but rather the corruption of Goodell's NFL. They don't even report news anymore, they spew PR. Simmons gets fired because he called Goodell a liar about no one in the NFL having seen the Ray Rice videos?? Puh-leeze! They fire Cowherd because he suggests Dominicans are largely uneducated?? Puh-leeze! All they want over there these days are politically correct corporate cowards. They've jumped the shark!

The rise of Bruce Jenner was the final straw to me. The only time I watch an ESPN network is when they have a sporting event I can't see anywhere else.
