Maybe I have not noticed it before but check out the top bar for scores. Scores are probably a third to half of ESPN traffic, people wanting to check out the latest box scores or, if there are no games that day, see the schedules for the upcoming days. The first one listed is MLB, a little odd now that we are in football season but it is every day so I give them a pass. What is next most important (left usually being more important in any list since it is read first)...WNBA!!! What the hell!?!? Are the games on ESPN? None I have ever seen. Is this because they are doing the Title 9 documentaries? There is no excuse for the WNBA being ahead of NFL and NCAAF. This cannot get any worse - what's next. CRICKET!!!!! Which way is up - black is white - cats chasing dogs. No way 100 people click on that a week. Out of those hundred people 88 of them are fishermen looking for bait tips (see what I did there - 88...Dale...nice). How crazy is that to be on ESPN's homepage? This has to have been done because ESPN got blamed for not being multi-ethnic enough. Now an executive can say "We love all sports - we even have cricket scores on our homepage! Who can argue with that?" Everyone you bastard. Take it off and put a tab called "more NFL" - I guarantee is gets way more clicks than cricket.
