Are you talking desktop or mobile? The desktop site is very user friendly and an improvement over the previous version.

how do you get to stats? I don't even see where to find that. Bottom line, the site is not user friendly at all. The old site may have been outdated but it was very organized and easy to navigate

ETA: actually, I see the problem, it doesn't work properly on google chrome. That seems like quite the oversight by the design department


I'm using Chrome. Went to sports/baseball/stats and everything is there back to 1984.

One very simple reason why the website sucks. There is no menu bar at the top left or right. Is this a joke?

I am on mobile.

You know the answer to that!

I actually like the design. Had the same issue with top nav not loading until I refreshed, but I figure they'll work that out.

Gotta LOL at the guy saying background color is white to speed up page loads, and not being responsive. A white background loads the same as purple or gold. And resize your browser window to be smaller and you can see the site responding to the various sizes.

Garbage. The layout and design are basic AF.This is something I would expect from the department in the early 00's as website and content designing were still developing. Their navigation bar is horrible, layout is horrible. For a big time athletic program, it screams Junior College level blandness.


the shite you miserable fricks will complain about is amazing.

Hey LiveGold: Do everyone here a favor and shut the frick up

There actually isn't if you are using google chrome. So i guess maybe you are retarded assuming all browsers looked the same as yours.

think the issue is, and i just figured this out, is you have to expand the window larger on google chrome. if it's not wide enough, it will basically compress the tab into a mobile looking tab in the corner. if the window is wide enough, it will have drop downs as it's supposed to. personally, i think they got a little too cute with that

I have a pretty big monitor. No matter what i do i simply don't get a dropdown menu in chrome. I know where to look for it too because i see it perfectly fine in Internet Explorer.

yeah, i don't know, i had to basically make the window as wide as the screen for the menu bar to show up. regardless, that is a poor design if that's what necessary to view the site correctly. on chrome it's that way at least. it looks fine on IE

Buddy suggested deleting browser history. He got it working by doing that.
