Well, the opening graphics are cool, and I think the navigational buttons

were just barely obvious enough for most users to click on -- something we

developers need to remember is that the average user is not bold about

clicking on stuff, or exploring.


The large-scale tweening worked pretty well on my P166MMX, 64 meg, Windows

95 machine.  It might be a bit sluggish on some machines, but I thought it

was good.  Timing was good, and the graphics seemed to fit together well.

Good palette.  Nice use of transparency in the opening sequence.


I don't really know what you want to do with the site, and I'm not a sports

fan so I'm not really coming up with ideas.  But if you told me more about

the sorts of stuff you want to accomplish, I might have some ideas for

Flash techniques.
