          @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
