It would help to know where are you located? Who are you using for DNS? I'm currently in Japan, let's me see what happens.

It takes me to global.espn.com. see screenshot

I live in Minnesota - middle of the United States. It only happens using my phone and accessing ESPN. Deleted Firefox and all history. Downloaded Firefox and synced with my laptop bookmarks. Only using laptop bookmarks to access ESPN and deleting all history for ESPN when finished. Now only happens occasionally that I am rerouted to ESPN.NL.
