As part of SB Nation's visual refresh, Beyond the Box Score has a new look. Some widgets have moved around, but nothing should be too hard to find.
Like all upgrades, things may not work perfectly at first. If you encounter any issues, please let us know so the coders can address the problem. Thanks for reading.

I love the big headlines.
The arrangement will take getting used to.
The logo at the top left is getting cut off by the [twitter] bar.
Already noted on other sites and the tech team knows, but this comment should appear with spaces between the lines.

This will take some getting used to

Blame the economy.
With ad revenues down, it’s becoming harder to afford things like “gutter space” and other seperators between content.

I’m not a fan of this big of a font for the headline. A touch smaller would work for me. I this SBN blogs will always feel cluttered to me, though.
And now at Beyond the Boxscore and Project Prospect!

Sans serif fonts!!!
As an old yearbook editor, I approve!

I disapprove strongly.
Research has shown that serif fonts are easier to read – the distinctive shapes allow for quicker reading.

Yeah...
Most tech writers will tell you that a sans-serif font for headings is fine, but your body text should really be serif. There are plenty of good choices out there, too.

I've seen that research
I still hate serifs. If you ever get a document from me, it’s always in Arial. I <3 that font.

Looks like Wikipedia took over SB Nation.

I'm starting to think that we should have all body text justified to make up for the missing borders.
That might help a little.

I HATE that in newspapers.
Wouldn’t happen as much here, but it’s weird to see a sentence stretched out.
