mphtrilogy Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Anything Lyndsey Adler writes (Yankees beat writer), she’s the best writer on the site, Connor on The Jets is solid, Tim Britton a Mets beat writer is solid. I’ve given up on The Knicks and hockey… Dane’s The Beast on The NFL Draft player guide is worth the price of admission alone, download it now. they have almost no Tennis coverage which is weird. The college sports coverage is solid. golf coverage has been getting better… It is worth the money imho… 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they'd get an additional Jets writer. Connor is repetitive and still writes as if it's a newspaper. Nothing really meaty..No use of film or film review..

Now that the Times owns them it will be curious to see how the bundles work. They haven't changed it yet but will you have to buy the times to get the sports coverage? Hopefully not.

In other words, he wasn't moving at the start. "Not too bad" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every week or so, my account kept getting logged out and reset as if it was a temporary one, forcing me to email them to get a temporary work around in order to be able to log back in. This went on and on...they never fixed it, so I cancelled. Too much hassle and, frankly, I don't miss it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted April 11, 2022 Share Posted April 11, 2022 I have enjoyed their writing over the past year. Its way better than ESPN crap articles they have for free or behind their E+ wall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
