ESPN App very slow to load

My ESPN app is very slow opening and sometimes fails to open..  I have removed the app, restarted the Roku device, and reinstalled the app.  This is occuring on Roku streaming stick 4k's and TCL Roku TVs.  My internet connection is good to excellent on all devices.  The ESPN app works fine on my Apple TV and Chromecast with Google TV devices.  Anyone else having this problem with the ESPN app?

  • Try unplugging the Roku for 30 to 60 seconds and see if that helps.

  • I have had the same problem for 2 weeks. I even get a Network Error - we are unable to connect you to the service... But my Internet is fine as tested on my TV, phone, and other Roku apps. 

    I tried unplugging and plugging in the Roku, and again after waiting to seconds and I still have the same issue. This is for a Roku Ultra. My other Roku devices are fine with ESPN. I've also tried deleting and reading the ESPN app several times.
