Is it just me or does it seem to take forever to get to the sports link on Newsday.com? There is always a pop-up trying to come up and there is always a delay. This happens from a bunch of different computers for me in different locations.

Am I the only one noticing this?

Yes, incredibly slow for the main hockey page, not so much on Logan's blog. I guess the main hockey page is filled with flash video and ads. And make sure you have a popup blocker.
I sold it all, retired and moved to Fabulous Las Vegas!

I always get to the page and then it redirects to a completely different blank page with an Ad, usually Lenovo. Very annoying!

Can't blame them for selling adspace and loading up on pop up ads.
Jim D still has a bad habit.


For Mac and Windows users, get adblockers.

Safari on the mac has something built in and you can download adblocker freeware for Firefox
on pc's.

Can also download this freebie for Safari:

News what? I have bought exactly 1 paper since I have been back (5 weeks) and don't miss it at all. You all probably know what I think by this point :)
