This has been a longstanding issue with me, so excuse the rant, or scroll past

But ESPN gravels my ass with their lopsided coverage.

Cardinals are 1 of 8 remaining teams, and they won a nail biter last night in Atlanta - But when I go to the ESPN MLB home page this morning I had to scroll through 40 (yes I counted) damn links before there was a link about the Cards.

AND THAT ONE WAS ABOUT COLTON WONG'S ERROR. Nice.

17 stories about the Yankees (and 1 about the fucking REDSOX, who are not playing) FFS there were 2 article about Chipper Jones, all before my team got a mention.

Man fuck Disney Sports in the kidney

Just kidding ... as a dyed in the wool Red Sox fan, I have to admit that I agree with you. Boston, New York, LA seem to dominate sports coverage.

I had not been on the MLB page in quite a while - It looks way better and the page layout is logical.

Thanks Cousin.
