ESPN recipe broken due to new print urls

The ESPN recipe isn't working. They've changed their print urls to use the same format as soccernet:
Quote:
espn.go.com/espn/print?id=%s&type=story
If you want the images stripped out add: "&imagesPrint=off" to that.
I changed the recipe and got it to work but I'm sure someone can do it more elegantly than I did.

Why does this recipe require a login? Most of ESPN's content doesn't need a subscription and I think everything in these RSS feed is available without login. I changed the needs_subscription value to False and removed the "def get_browser(self):" and it works.
