Awesome! Cool to see my local Seattle Sounders get featured on here! You hit it right on the head: Navigation menus are of incredible importance to website design. Many designers overlook or ignore this aspect, and i feel it is because many individuals needing sites aren’t aware of the power and influence a great/clean navigation menu can have. Thanks for the post!

Some weak examples, but a ton of very good ones. You can add espn.com’s latest to the list of mega nav drop downs.
