Thoughts on ESPN's new layout?

• Scarlet_Buckeye

  

  Looks like someone ripped off Pinterest.
  
  So far, there appears to be quite a few bugs, but I suppose you'll have that with new things. You would just think that something as large as ESPN would thoroughly vet & test any new changes.

  Couldnt stand navigating the old one.

  Not familiar with Pinterest but I think it sucks on my phone. I don't want their stories shoved in my face....I want scores. Took a bit to find NBA scores.

  Agreed. It feels like Bleacher Report to me. I am not enamored of it but the old site was not particularly user-friendly. Finding what you wanted was often like navigating a fucking maze. The layout felt cluttered in areas.

  My favorites on the side and all the scores being available in 1 bar at the top immediately make it an upgrade.
  
  I dont use ESPN for anything but that anyway, so I am probably biased. Any article/story/whatever ELSE they provide on the website, I get via Twitter...

  That's where we differ, I guess. I use Twitter very infrequently, so when I want to read a sports article I generally do so using traditional sites like ESPN. The new format, at least with regard to the articles, is bothersome to read due to the blog-like feel that Pick6 spoke of above. All of the content seems to blend together, making it difficult to look at. I don't know, maybe it's the all white background that is throwing me off, as ESPN use to use more color in its scheme.
  
  The new scoreboard at the top is a nice upgrade, though. I agree.

  I cannot believe CNN bought that pile of crap and ditched SI. And Chrome hates that new CNNSI, but maybe they fixed it.

  This. They can have all of the bells & whistles in the world but as long as they keep putting out that crap journalism, same old, same old. What's that saying about "lipstick on a pig?"
