Have you noticed that ESPN.com isn’t really a sports news site anymore? The feature story is almost always either a poll result or the latest All-[whatever]-team. The content-to-advertising ratio is down there with that of Vogue or Vanity Fair; the ads are so omnipresent that they practically block the content. They’ve even added a separate page, “Page 3,” which is for non-sports news.
I'm telling you, if it weren't for Gammons, Stark, Sports Guy, and nine years of habit, I might have to switch to SI.com or Sportsline permanently.
I sure liked it better in the ESPNET SportsZone days...
