Sports News Feeds?

[Phaedrus]

I've been tinkering around with an RSS feeder that returns headlines and info from over 5,000 sites, including most major sports sites. Would you guys be interested in me starting and maintaining sports news threads, and if so where should they go?

Just figured I might put my obsessive blogging and post-whoring to good use.

Phaedrus,

I think you should place these topics in the rooms where they fit and then post borderline material in offshore. Use the rooms that we have for topics that pertain to them.

Good luck

I understand General; bear in mind we're only talking sports news and not financial, T&A, politics, space, and any of the other assorted inanity in which I usually indulge. When I say "one thread each" above I mean a thread in the bases forum, "MLB Headlines for [date]" with theheadlines for MLB -- however many there are -- all listed.

This morning when I check the feeder it said there were 4,483 new sports stories. Didn't realise that it was going to scoop up everything in every language on the frickin planet.

Who knew there were over 4,000 sports stories on a Tuesday after the SuperBowl?

This thing's actually pretty cool. I may just set up a site and link it here.

Any and all info is appreciated my friend.

Phaedrus,

This is something I am interested in, for a few of my online projects.

Please contact me when you get a chance

Can't believe I actually forgot about this poll. What a dorkass. Looks like the idea has been put into place without me.

Phaedrus;

I'd be careful with this Robbie from Apex. He's closing his joint, stiffing a lot of players and he doesn't care that everybody knows he's a stiff, a scumbag and a thief.

Monstroso ... we never talk any more. Do I smell or something?

Thanks for the heads-up. I know all manner of thieves and scoundrels; never bothered me a bit to tell you the truth. Better a thief than a politician.

"My dear Phaedrus, whence come you, and whither are you going?"

I've been working like a dog. Gots lotsa work to do, before I can jump on a steel horse and ride wildly like you. Then again, I still haven't hit my 30s... there's still hope.

I'll send you an e-mail with a quick sketch of what I'm doing. I hate politics as well, hope that comes right off my walk.

Be well, Zenster.
