WTF is up with their extremely annoying banner ad on the main page? I drives me crazy. And the proliferation of flash ads sucks... Sorry just ranting today.

    One of the worst sites on the whole web. Incompatible with everything, way too busy, way too bloated, even on Windows.

    I agree, Flash ads suck. Now if only PithHelmet blocked those, too

    Oh good, I thought it was just me . On Camino and Safari both, it kinda half loads and then half the page cuts off...I assume this is what you are seeing? Their webmaster needs a wack in the head.

    Actually, on Safari, there's this expanding ad at the top. I'm talking a big ass ad, that gets smaller after it plays itself out. Then the page moves up. Just freakin' annoying as hell.

    Its not too bad lasts about a second for me in safari.

    Though the worst thing ive seen with this kind of ad is a nokia one on gamesy.com, It takes over, i mean the whole page is a translucent ad over the page leaving you unable to click any links for about a minute.

    Thankfully i havent seen too many like this and hopefully it aint the start of a fad like pop up banners!

    And it used to be a really good site too. I just bypass the front page nowadays and jump straight to the relevant scoreboard for whatever sports season it is.
