Do y'all like the new layout of Yahoo Answers' baseball section?

I think its sweet. I can see the top ten answerers now too, not just "Chipmaker." Maybe this isn't a good baseball question, but hey, I feel like I know you all, and if I asked it somewhere else, I'd get a whole bunch of other people I don't "know" answering.

BQ: Did your team win today?

Update:

You know what makes me really happy? To hear all these Yankee fans taking my name and avatar so seriously. I love it. Keep ripping on me. That's why my name is what it is. I am the Official Yankee Basher. ;-)

Update 2:

I realize its all over Yahoo Answers. I am not stupid. I just had to have a reason to put it in the Baseball section.

Update 3:

Hey, and don't count yourself out of best answer just 'cause you are a Yankee fan. See this question. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=Alg0C...

He was a self-professed fan of them. But he was nice about it.

    Eh, I liked the sections on the side not the top, but I love seing the Top 10. I wish it showed where you ranked right after the top 10 though.

    BQ: Lost, 6-3 to the Twins.

    B) Yes- I love the baseball section and I'm going to do my best to keep it strong. This is a good section with some good people. We do not need to let a few bad apples ruin the party for the rest of us. I have met some great people that I enjoy sharing my baseball knowledge with and I have learned some great things from them. This is like my second home. I come on here after work and relax and answer questions. I know who is cool on here and I stay away from the trolls. I am not going to let the trolls bring me down or the contacts that I have down.

    It's not just the baseball section - it is the same for all of Y!A

    I don't like it. I Don't really care who the top scorers are. Usually they are just brown noses asses, lol.

    BA- Yep, Yanks gonna win two!

    [Edit - I guess I'm not getting the 10 pts from the Yankee basher, lol]

  • Yeah, I like it better now too. I can see the top 10 baseball answerers with how many points and best answers they have in this section.

    BQ: They didn't win or lose since they are off today.

    Oh yeah, nothing like seeing MY smiling cartoon face up there. Sheesh.

    Aside from that, yeah, the new layout is pleasing, with one significant failing. The little, red "not allowed" icons -- which I use to avoid Qs posted by those various trolls, dullards, nitwits, and other assorted reprobates by blocking them -- don't appear. So sometimes I inadvertently click on a thread posted by a proven zero quantity. Annoying.

    I understand why you asked it here, I feel like I "know" some people too. =) It's cool, it's definitely going to take some getting used to for me but I think I like it.

    BQ: Nope.. yet another mediocre performance by Josh Beckett.. though except for that tough third inning, he really wasn't that bad. And Mark Buerhle finally got his first win since his perfect game. Just sucks that it was against us. =( At least Rays lost both of their games today.. but Rangers are 2.5 back since we lost, and they got rained out and instead have a doubleheader tomorrow.

    I was waiting for someone to ask this...

    Well it isn't bad, but I like the old layout better. Probably because that's what I was used to. The top ten answerers thing is cool along with the U.S. leaderboard!

    BQ: Nope, Brewers lost as usually!

    I like the whole top 10 top answerers thing, but hate how you can only see one question without scrolling down. I got used to it pretty quickly

    BQ: No :( At least Beckett didn't give up 5 homers

    My team was off today. I hope when they get to Houston they find the bats that have some hits in them. They need to snap this 5 game losing streak they are no.
