        @snotrocket you used the wrong quotes in the newsfeed section and for the last feed you missed to specify url:

        	{
        		module: 'newsfeed',
        		position: 'bottom_bar',
        		config: {
        			feeds: [
        				{
        					title: "ESPN",
        					url: "http://www.espn.com/espn/rss/news"
        				},
        				{
        					title: "Reuters Sports",
        					url: "http://feeds.reuters.com/reuters/sportsNews"
        				},
        				{
        					title: "Yahoo NFL",
                                                url: "https://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/rss.xml"
        				},
        			],
        			showSourceTitle: false,
        			showPublishDate: false
        		}
        	}
        

        Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

            @snotrocket you are still using the wrong quotes use " or ' instead of “

              Oooooh. Would the different quotes come from notepad++ or something? I think I edited in that and copied via SSH.

              Fixing now.

              Thanks

                  @snotrocket there is no need to let the nfl module reload every 10 seconds, it will detect itself if there is a live match and during live matches it will refresh data more frequently

                  Please create a github issue if you need help, so I can keep track

                      @snotrocket if you want to use the default of 30mins you can remove it from your config.js completely
