The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways. Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar. We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.
Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...
You think I clicked on any of that crap? I was afraid. I only clicked on "NFL -> home" to see the headlines. That was MORE than enough.

Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...
Keeping in mind, I've just seen this on a desktop browser:
The appearance isn't so bad, to me. A lot of places are taking more of a "streamlined for phone/tablet" approach to website design that I think is making them more efficient to navigate. The extra emphasis on titles and headlines is a little frustrating, but that seems to be the nature of the beast.

Only on laptop, too, and it's HORRID. Even the old design, never a problem on my Kindle (considered mobile by websites).

When I checked last night it was still on the old format. Now it's switched. Awful. Completely and utterly awful.

Injury reports for NFL (although I check a couple different sites, just to make sure stuff is accurate). Basic sports headlines. Maybe a score or two.

Olbermann had a fun bit today about the original ESPN.com (and the even originaler one that came out a year before).

Re: Still Complaining About ESPN...
Just went to the new site
Cricket World Cup Stories: 2
NHL Stories: 1
Euro Hockey Stories: 1
NCAA Hockey Stories: 1
Puts it in perspective where hockey sits in relation to cricket. BTW, the Indian Premier League (E$PN has the rights) starts April 8. I really want to see if the coverage bleeds over to the main page.

It's still way too busy, but I like the cleaner tone.
"Less is more" should be engraved on every designer's inner eye lids. People are still designing according to terrible habits from TV and newspaper advertising. If somebody has navigated to your site, you don't have to attract them, you have to hold them. More real content, less garbage. It's not that complicated.
