Moving the Esports tab to the front page of ESPN instead of being a side category

So after seeing that Esports has been taken into the ESPN website as an official sport, getting somewhat the same coverage as the testosterone driven sports, I see that there is much more room on their toolbar, and I would personally think, that with enough support from the LoL community, or possibly in addition with other Esports communities, we can build up enough hype to permanently get Esports on the front page as an option. This in itself creates many opportunities for Adults/Teens who love the outdoor sports to say to themselves,

"Hey, I've never seen this 'Esports' tab before, and If it is along with the other primary sports, it must be very relevant."

This would further increase the public's point of view on Esports, not only making it something that you specifically have to look for on ESPN under the '...' tab, but also making it something that could/will be the future norm. All we need to do is get some sort of hype for it, how that will be done; whether it be on the front page of LoL, or simply a Boards/Subreddit effort, can be decided upon the amount of potential that the community sees this to be. If Esports is truly rising to glory in the world, it would make sense that this is a step in the right direction.

(+1 if this is something you are interested in)

@Reds, if you can get this noticed that would be greatly appreciated

Maybe they should capitalize it, its obviously still a joke to them it seems.

I rather have this on Riot's site. No reason to go over to ESPN for any of this (nor would I want to... being bombarded with ads, multiple other things I'm not there to read/watch).

To be honest, I'm just glad that it's there and at the top of the other sports.
