the worst part might be the sport-themed background that loads behind everything. I've stuck with Yahoo forever because they had the cleanest graphics, but this new shit is dreadful.

no combination of colors is more readable than black text on a white background. if your webpage is doing something other than that, you better have an amazing reason. i guarantee blue and white text on a blurry green background failed every focus group and they decided to do it anyway.

worse than that though is how they made everything in the fantasy football leagues 50% harder to do. player pages don't open in separate windows anymore. league standings are hidden behind a tab. the roster pages are a jumbled mess of randomly aligned columns. they took the cleanest, fastest, most user friendly sports design on the web, and somehow made it worse than NFL.com. impressive.

I was just telling someone I hoped they'd allow .gifs in fantasy team logos this year, but now I'll shut up as long as their site doesn't look like geocities.

-The Knicks’ coaching search still includes a lone frontrunner, Kurt Rambis, whose qualifications for the position include a strong relationship with Jackson and a willingness to take the job.
