I'm used to using archive.is (and variants thereof) to get around "soft" paywalls on websites that offer some free articles before restricting by IP or cookies. But it turns out that it also gets around the "hard" paywall of EPSN+! So anytime I see a link to an article I actually want to read on ESPN, while it will inevitably be behind their paywall, I can still bypass that paywall and read articles like this one about coaches on the hotseat. Figured others might want to take advantage of that (unless I'm just the last to know).

Posting links to the internet archive under paywalled links is my next bot idea but so far I don't know if there's an API I can use.

Nice. Thanks for the heads up.

I think the way archive.is works is people who have a subscription open the link and the site archives the contents of the page. So it's not guaranteed to work every time, only when someone has archived it already.
