An in-depth historical and biographical look at the world's most successful franchise ever...the New York Yankees. But this site needs a big revamp!

How does the site look? This parameter evaluates the overall design and gives extra points for any innovative techniques.

Historic or prehistoric?

Ask your great grandparents about this site, they might know much more about it.

Oh dear, the design of this site looks like something from 100 years ago. Just because the subject matter is the history of the Yankees, doesn't mean the site has to be a part of history too!

How easy is it to navigate around the site? We tried and tested it out and graded.

Ultimate Yankees is easy to get around, you can navigate via the side bar to the salaries, schedules, team photos, Yankees trivia, Yankees quotes and lots more.

Can you contact the site with queries? This grades the email support and telephone contacts available to users.

This site is the brainchild of one guy – Brad – and you contact him by email, there's no phone number, address or no team of support network or customer service here. It's a one-man-band of a website.

Social Option: 4/10

How interactive is this site? Is there a Facebook Group? Twitter? RSS feeds? Linked In? We found out.

It appears that our dear old Brad, although he loves facts and figures, is not really up to date with Facebook, Twitter, chat rooms or anything else. There's not even a forum here for fans to share their views.

How sports mad is this site? How crazy are they about sports? Extra points will be given for sites that are almost obsessive about their topics..

Ok, Ultimate Yankees may look like something out of the 1920s, but it does have heart and soul. Brad is clearly in love with the Yankees and one of their biggest American sports fans.

How many stats are on this site? We graded quality, detail and scope of stats, historical league info and facts.

This site has stats all over the place – it has the Playoff history and schedule, all-time roster, info on the Yankee greats, yearbooks and much more. This is Nerdsville for Yankee stats fans.

Fun Factor: 2/10

Ok, how fun is this site? Are there games on offer? Does it do stupid things to photos? Run stupid competitions? We gave extra points for craziness.

Ultimate Yankees feels like more of a museum than a playground. Yes, he loves baseball, but there's not much fun here – no games. Even the trivia is a list of Did You Know facts rather than an interactive quiz.

News Topicality: 1/10

Why is it different to other sports sites? We graded originality and innovation.

Brad provides links to get tickets for the current American sports online, he lists the most recent season's standing and offers bios on the current coaches and staff but where's the beef? There's no up to date gossip, news or chat here.

Multimedia Options: 2/10

Is the news up-to-date? We calculated the number of updated, relevant and quality news stories from fans perspective..

Well, Brad has tried to bring video and audio into the site, but when you click on 'Yankee Videos' it goes to 'Under Construction'. We think it has been like this for a very long time. No chance of multimedia options here.

Innovation: 4/10

What else can I do here? We gave extra points to sites with RSS feeds, video, HD, mobile and audio.

Are you kidding? This site is about as innovative as a plain cheese sandwich. There's no groundbreaking juicy news, videos, stats, chat or anything related to any sports.
