ESPN... what the heck are you doing?

Imagine a scorebug looking so bad, so ugly, and so confusing that it gets changed in the middle of the game, and gets changed in the second half. Well, to open up the 2019 NFL season on Monday Night Football on ESPN, in a battle between the Houston Texans and the New Orleans Saints, that's exactly what happened. The scorebug looked so bad and was hated by everyone that it got changed in the middle of the game. This is the in-depth story behind that.

The video started with a 30 second plug for the guy’s YouTube channel. Then the video drags on for five minutes interrupted by two more 30 second commercials (only one with a skip option) before showing you the offending score crawler which doesn’t even look that bad. So, be warned the video is click bait designed mainly to get the viewer to sit through advertisements.
