Sports section with a new-age, modernized look, which features a much darker, graphical background, and light, larger text. Only problem is, the sports buffs that frequented Yahoo! Sports loved the basic, easy to read and comprehend presentation that the old site used (Which was a predominately plain white background, and smaller, dark text. Thousands of users took to Yahoo's uservoice page to express their discontent, begging for the old design back."

Who the fuck uses Yahoo!?
Nobody.
I haven't been to Yahoo in a very long time, so I decided to check out the new sports page. What a piece of shit. When you concentrate on appearance rather than content, you have failed.
But, what do you expect from a company run by a stupid cunt.
