nba.com is busted
by ZetaGecko | Add Your Comments | Issues/Problems
The NBA's homepage is busted. When you arrive, there's a humongous ad at the top of the page. If that were the only problem, I wouldn't be writing this (even though I'd still think it stinks), because I'd be able to scroll down to the content I wanted to see and be on my merry way. But a few seconds after you arrive, the rest of the page scrolls up over the ad a little jump at a time till the ad is gone. If you've scrolled down and are reading something else, it scrolls up and out of your window. Thus, the homepage is unreadable for about 18 seconds until the page has finished jumping around. From now on, I'll just use the URL autocomplete feature to go straight to the pages I'm most interested in, and will skip the homepage altogether. If I ever become curious enough about all the days scores again to overcome my disgust and view the homepage again, I'll open it and immediately minimize the window, and then bring it back up later...if I remember that there was something I wanted to see.
Please tell me they won't leave it this way for long!
