May 16, 201015 yr It's interesting, but the slight delay for it to "pop up" comes off annoying and it takes up too much space. I shut it off, but I'm not complaining about the dedication to making this the best site on the internet. Edited May 16, 201015 yr by Steve9347
May 16, 201015 yr Nice feature. I've noticed that it takes an extra second or two to pop up, but I don't see that as an issue.

May 16, 201015 yr I love it. The slight delay in loading is kind of annoying, but I'll get used to it.

May 16, 201015 yr The score board is indeed badass. I would have one suggestion though, only have it on the home page of Soxtalk

If you're going to have it, I'd say keep it on all pages. You kinda want it open if you're hanging out in the game thread.
May 16, 201015 yr Also, the only time it took extra time to load was the first time it loaded. It seems like it loads with the page now? I actually linked through to the Sun-Times widget... but it seems like either they don't use it anymore on their site (that I could find) and/or it acutally links all the way through to something else (a feed of some sort, I forget the link and I'm too lazy to look it up).

The rest of the page still loads about 1/2 a second faster than the widget for me.
May 17, 201015 yr Perhaps put it underneath the footer so it isn't so intrusive. Or have somebody design a new banner that would incorporate the look of the box score on top of it.

You could try one of the 13,000 browser block add-on's and simply right click it and select "block." Or... ditch your Windows 95 machine and join us in the 21st century?
