Man, they had some ugly front pages in the beginning.

no endless stream of popups and ads, though, I'd guess.

Yeah, that actually is a much cleaner and nicer look than what they've got now...

The 1996 look is what I remember best. Spent lots of time on that site my first year of college...

Does that ever bring back memories of my college years. I can't believe pages were that basic back then, but they were.

I liked it better back then. Just news. No crap.

Me too. I find it hard to believe that people actually use all that crap. Just give me linked stories and stats and make it all free. :)

It's not hard to believe the website came from the minds of the people who think all Stu Scott all the time is a good thing.

Most definitely. ESPN.com is almost unbearable to go to. Whatever happened to "Keep It Simple, Stupid"? It should be about the contents presented in an easy-to-read fashion.
