Ratings and reviews

Incredibly inconsistent. Sometimes it opens. Most of the time it won't let you comment. It has rejected edited comments that were virtually the same as the original comment that was posted. It's slow. I have tried changing from WiFi to Verizon towers that show download speeds of 450+ megs and nothing helps. Based on other comments, I'm not alone.

Great app! Edit: Removing a star because I'm frustrated by the inability to control which sports leagues are prioritized in the list on the Scores tab. The order changes sporadically with the season, ostensibly to account for which leagues are and are not playing. However, perhaps I don't like basketball and don't want the first three leagues on the list to be basketball leagues? This needs to be something the user can control.

For over a decade, Yahoo Sports has been my go-to sports app. If it gets buggier, I'll be looking elsewhere. With the last update scrolling will simply freeze. Can't scroll back or forward. Often an article loads as far as the headline but the story section is blank. Then there are the VERY annoying ads for "The Old Man" which jump into that whole screen and, if I scroll down, if any of the ad is still visible, it jumps back up to the top of the ad. Arrgh!
