It's official!!! ESPN.com is now officially better than cbs.sportsline.com. For years I have been loyal to the cbs site. But the past year has been a disappointing experience for me. Besides the fact that their reporters have become ho hum to say the least, or the fact that they either started charging for features or simply dropping them, now no matter what page you click on in the site you are bombarded with an advertisement for something or other. It's horrible.

Plus, ESPN has Page 2 which has slowly evolved into my morning paper with that first cup of coffee. Entertaining, funny, dynamic in it's various viewpoints, controversial, off topic, oh the joy of sports journalism like it should be. And to top that off, they have Page 3 which is a serviceable if somewhat less entertaining alternative/follow up for Page 2.
