    Also get rid of that small banner ad in the middle of the "ESPN News headlines" area.

    Was a yahoo guy because when you went to the front page, you didn't have to click to see all the scores from last night's NBA. Now, you have to scroll down a bit, which is annoying.

    SI? I do like the tabs but yes, there are far too many ads. And what's with all the black?

    Rarely do sportsline first. Maybe my cpu is getting old ... but Sportsline has always been a slow load for me.

    I wonder if Vista has played a part in all these recent .com redesigns?

    Am I missing it, or does the new SI.com not have a link to the magazine content? I coulda sworn you used to be able to click on a tab labled magazine right at the top of the page. Where did it go?

    SI's change - I like it, but I wasn't unhappy with the old look.

    ESPN's new Page 2 - It's a little too 'big' for me, too spread out.

    It seems like ESPN takes the longest to load. Even at work on my G5, it still takes a few more seconds to see the whole page than say SI, Sportsline, or Yahoo.

    I like the content on ESPN, but don't like the way it works.

    I'm pretty sure you're right. I think they're subtly removing the magazine from the web.

    As a tennis fan, I like that it now has it's own tab on the front instead being lumped in with the More Sports tab.

    That's a great question. I hadn't even thought of that.

    I hate that as well, I think they do it to increase their page views.
