just curious, am I the only one that has a problem with the sum feature while using IE 8? If you sum a set of years, it works fine, then if you click clear and for some reason decide to sum the same years it just shows loading..... If you chose a different set of years it works just fine.

I'm a Vista user with the same problem. Doesn't even have to be the same years, just some overlap. The really annoying thing is that if I exit and re-enter the problem persists.

IE 8 sucks. I vanishingly rarely use IE over the last 8-9 years, but when I do, I like it to work. Which is why about two weeks after IE 8 pushed via update, I rolled back to IE 7. 7 works, 8 doesn't.

IE 8 sucks.

Exactly what i feel about Firefox after 3.0. It sucks on so many levels I can't imagine why they have a single user left.

Have you not tried Minefield (what 3.5 was in development) then? Because you should, if you haven't.

3.5 was the one that on Windows locked up trying to enumerate all your temporary files (gigabytes of them) for no particular reason at all? Oh, yeah, that one. That was a horror.

I like Firefox 3.5 - no problems.

Something I forgot when I did my review but would be useful: a sum feature for team pages-

-so you could determine, for example, the OPS of the entire starting lineup of a team, or all the team's catchers, or the ERA of the starting rotation, etc.

Seems like it would be very simple to implement.

I like Ie most of the time, (mind you on my netbook I put google chrome... I've never eve liked Firefox, tried it a bunch of times, I should like it because I'm a computer geek, but it's just not my bag of tea)

Has anyone been having problems with the Newsstand page on this site lately? It seems all of a sudden that the page takes the entire 1280 pixel width to show the page and still have the menus on the margins show up.

Maybe the 'pre' tag in the Lackey/Zambrano story quote is screwing it up and things will return to normal once that drops off the front page?

I'm pretty sure that's it. It is annoying at the moment though.

I've had the same issue with IE7. I have it happen both on summing of years and trying to parse out sections of game logs.

Likewise. When summing years, I've been able to get around it by going to the batting stats page for the player.

Posts that just say that something "sucks" or "doesn't work" aren't really useful to anybody else. You might want to describe specifically what you like or don't like about browsers.

I prefer Firefox because of the extensions. Whenever I use another browser, I feel like I'm missing a number of features. Because other browsers are adding support for user scripting (like Greasemonkey for FF), this issue may go away over time.

I would have if I had thought this was turning into a browser thread. I intended that as a quickly forgotten response to 1 and 2. I am also addicted to my add-ons (what are you at, VK? Looks like I'm at 39, with two disabled, one of which is the .net kerfluffle one), I remain unimpressed with mouse gestures (what I think of as Opera's differentiator), and I'm lazy and loyal. I started using the Mozilla browser in 2000 or so, stuck with it through the start of bloat because of tabbed browsing, through the Phoenix/Firebird/IceWeasel crap, and other than the memory leak that it took forever to fix, I've never had an issue that remained through 1 or 2 point updates. IE 7 is perfectly adequate, IE 8 caused a host of .Net framework, security, and registry problems for me, Opera/SeaMonkey are fine, Chrome phones home way too often for my tastes, and Safari sucks hindteat. Don't like it on Mac, hate it on Win.

Reminds me of when I worked for an indie software gaming company in customer service while in college. We'd put all of the awesome bug reports on the bulletin board. I liked:
1. Subject: WONT WORK
IT WONT WORK

2. Subject: Reinstate my account
Dear sir,
I am very angry as you have blocked my families accounts. I have four or five brothers and we all play. Please unban us now!

I don't begrudge Sean the money he is getting from the ads but I really hate the ads that expand when you roll over them (interstitials is the word I think). They aren't as bad as pop ups but they are pretty close.

Interstitial is more properly applied to the ads that come up in the middle of a multi-page article. So you click on the "Page 3" link and instead you get the ad, then you can click "Skip" and you go to Page 3.

"I don't begrudge Sean the money he is getting from the ads but I really hate the ads that expand when you roll over them (interstitials is the word I think). They aren't as bad as pop ups but they are pretty close."

Yeah, those are terrible. I won't buy anything from anyone who uses them if there's any reasonable alternative.
