You would need to switch to each team individually and then go to their schedule. This is not convenient. Better would be a League Scores page (how pro sports sites do it) and you default to the current set of games and can scroll back through previous ones, seeing all scores for your league on the same page.

I do think that the league page is actually perfect at this point, there is already so much information along with the row of buttons at the bottom linking to records, league leaders, navigating to other leagues and seasons, etc. More is not better when it starts being superfluous stuff.

Kind of like reading an overview in a newspaper. Cramming a ton of extra information onto the League page would just make the League page unusable.

Arrows going forward and back might be alright, but there are already several arrows on that page (for going between leagues and seasons) and more will just make it more difficult to navigate. Edit: Still haven't heard why seeing the entire series matters anyways? After the latest results the previous ones are not really relevant. Updated Friday, September 18 2015 @ 3:22:15 pm PDT

I can't say why he wants it... that's just my interpretation. And in that case, clicking on each team and viewing their schedule page sounds kinda annoying. And then you hafta go navigate back to your own team if you wanna do anything to it. I agree wholeheartedly that this does NOT belong on the league page. More games would be a very bad idea. It would be clutter. My own compromise suggestion was to make a new page for scores that would cover this need while not adding something unnecessary to the league page.

There needs to be a compelling reason to institute a change beyond idle curiosity. EDIT: I'm not bashing the idea, its a perfectly valid idea/comment. I think we are just having conversation as to whether or not its worth implementing something, and in that case we need to know the burning need. Updated Saturday, September 19 2015 @ 4:12:07 pm PDT
