ONUV Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 I didn't pay much attention to preseason games on MNF. This scoreboard seems really big. What's the deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old School Fool Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The entire graphics package seems like it was made for people who don't have good eyesight. I bet you anything it will be changed next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punch Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The clock at first glance makes it look like it is the 2 minute warning. I like that I can see it with my poor eyesight, but they can do so much more with less. Make the numbers yellow or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONUV Posted September 12, 2011 Author Share Posted September 12, 2011 I have poor eyesight as well but I don't need a bug THAT big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejeff Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 This whole package seems forced and unrefined. The basic ESPN stuff would've been just fine. This is too clunky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3uge Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 What the hell ESPN? How did you manage to make your graphic worse?They're going backwards in time. Where was this in the 90's when we all had fuzzy TVs and couldn't see the score? Now in the day of HD we have a numbers that are literally twice as big as the players' heads.

RyanMcD29 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 The graphics package itself is alright. I don't like how it's completely different from the rest of the graphics they use on ESPN, though. The scoreboard, however, is terrible. It's like they combined the past 3 graphics packages into one huge scoreboard. Totally unnecessary to have it that huge, especially in HD. They should've just ran with the slight adjustment the college football scoreboard got this season (which looks great) and called it a day Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 The team logos are unnecessary, and take up a lot of space. I think we can figure out who NE and MIA are without a 6 inch logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimEOBrien Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I don't mind how big it is but I want it lower on the screen - like the center (top to bottom) should be AT LEAST where the bottom of the graphic currently is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axlrush Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 First thing I thought of when I saw the scoreboard graphic was how big it was, then to run here and complain about it.I knew there would already be a thread started about it as well. That's why I love this board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CitizenTino Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 For what it's worth, last year's had team logos:http://30fps.mocksession.com/2010/11/08/2010_november_8_23_31_48/And you can count me among those who think this year's scoreboard is absurdly large.

BigStunna Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 The real question is what is more obnoxious: the scoreboard or Chris Berman's tie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 The real question is what is more obnoxious: the scoreboard or Chris Berman's tie?FYP.Anyway, what I never understood about scoreboard bugs is why networks insist on leaving so much space between the bug and the edge of the screen. Seems to me they should have it flush with the top or bottom edge so it's less likely to get in the way of the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 The team logos are unnecessary, and take up a lot of space. I think we can figure out who NE and MIA are without a 6 inch logo.Or better yet, use the combined space between the logo and the abbreviation to do something daring like put "PATRIOTS" and "DOLPHINS."You'd swear networks would figure stuff like that (that less is often more) out. But they never do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can watch the same game on two TV's - one in my family room and one in my guest bedroom - and the bar will be 2/3rds of the way down the screen on one, and barely visible at the bottom on the other.
