Fantasy 411: ESPN

My opinion of ESPN's website coverage of fantasy sports is slightly mixed.  ESPN offers a great deal of fantasy sports coverage, as well as a number of free fantasy sports leagues.  Both are definitely a large positive.  However, the one glaring negative ESPN's web coverage of fantasy sports holds is that a lot of content offered on the site is ESPN insider exclusive, meaning that only those with an ESPN insider subscription have access to those articles and features.   However, that aside the site is a fantasy fantasy sports source of information.  ESPN offers coverage of fantasy football, basketball, baseball, hockey, racing as well as soccer.  As well as typical coverage such as articles written by fantasy experts such as Eric Karabell and others such as Matthew Berry (formerly, as some of the other writers on ESPN are, of the talented Mr. Roto web page, which has been purchased by ESPN.), ESPN also offers podcasts that can be downloaded to your computer or iPod as well as video coverage on ESPN's web page.  The site is quite easy to navigate with a number of tabs clearly marked as to what they direct surfers to on the site.  ESPN also offers message boards to members of the website, which is an additional nice feature.  Finally, the advertising on ESPN's fantasy sports web pages are not distracting and do little to clutter the layout of the page.  All in all, ESPN has a fantastic fantasy sports website, however, it does need to be noted that some of the coverage on the site is only available to ESPN Insider subscribers.
