@cowboysdude https://fantasydata.com/pricing/nascar-data-api.aspx does this look useful at all?

[cowboysdude]

@dwlyles Yes but the data is not free. You get a free trial then it gets expensive…

Oh hell no!

@cowboysdude I just signed in to see what it offers and they alter the data by 20% unless you pay lol what a joke

Thanks again for the help.

I scraped that out of the nascar page. Seems promising but unclear if it will work long term.

@emlowe so thinking, may need to update once a year?

[cowboysdude]

@emlowe Like anything else… it’ll work until it doesn’t :)

May have to fiddle with but it’s the best that’s out there unless you want to pay for it. ;)

Great job! Thank you!

I’ll look at it later today … have to work :)

It would need to be in rotating format because a chart would just be too big for the mirror

Took a few minutes while having coffee and threw something together real quick… I have the data it seems to work so I’ll make it look pretty when I get home ;)

Any chance you can scrape the NFL standings from
http://www.scoreboard.com/nfl/standings/

or somewhere
