ESPN.com Consumes over 100% CPU on Mac

Description of the issue:
Just going to the espn.com website causes that tab task to consume more than 100% cpu on my new 6 core i7 Mac Mini and the loader spinner never stops

Edit:
It actually gets worse if you click the stop loading X button. The browser task actually starts taking up more CPU than the tab task.

I see this on Windows 10 as well.
Only 1 tab open with ESPN loaded and Brave is consuming close to 90% CPU. My laptop fan goes berserk. This does not happen using Chrome.
