Ratings and reviews

Not a big fan of the new update. I only get a fraction of the news stories on my teams and the ad bar repositions itself when I scroll looking at articles. Seems like they tried to "pretty up" the app by taking away articles and stats that people have come to look for. I'm already trying to look for a way to revert to the old update. I'd much prefer to use that than all these BOLD headlines that stay for days on end and just go back to listing articles and headlines the way they were.

What the ESPN App always hoped to be. Loads fast with less ads and full play-by-play and stats, not just for the events Yahoo covers (unlike Di$ney$ E$PN now). The interface was actually very quick to learn as it was similar to ESPN but without the bloat. The highlights could be better, but I can always go to YouTube if I want more extensive highlights.

The widget has been stuck on the same rained out baseball game for weeks. I've tried everything and am starting to look around for alternatives so I can uninstall. I really need a more reliable source for when and where my fav baseball team plays every day. This was always the best sports widget app, but it's looking more and more like a long neglected lawn.
