Finding Scores....

[Catch--22]

Is it me, or is it harder to find scores than it was two years ago. It was great when high school cube had one list of all the games, and filled in the scores as the games progressed or went final. Is there anything like that out there right now? I don't want to scroll through 100 tweets or Friday night live posts…

But very little chat after the games ended on Friday night, seemed like to me??

With the DVC scoreboard app it made keeping track of those games simple, I didn't bother checking other scores since its to much of a pain in the *** to check the twitter feeds while trying to watch a game.

I was expecting more talk about games too. Very little chatter about the weekends games.

That feed has a few wrong scores -- two days later.

As far as the chatter on the boards it seems that it takes a few weeks to get things going...that's been the case the past few seasons so far. Also overall page views are higher yet we have less posters....compliments to the Twitterverse I feel...I'm considering a few tweaks to see if we can boost/encourage more new posters.

Also I've been approached multiple times by Scorestream..great idea but its still user reliant and we have had more false scores last year than any season I can remember combined....this is why I still run the Friday Night Live on the front page still because at least those are reliable sources. Also understand you have one major Chicago paper down to like two people and the other with a new preps editor and they have been lacking because of the transition. Also from a business perspective people love stats and scores but no one can find a way to make any real money off it. Alot of work and effort for zero revenue so it's becoming less and less of a priority.

Also if you guys come across any good sources let me know/send or post a twitter handle always looking to include more sources for scores.

If you're looking for scores, don't read the Sun-Times on Saturdays. First day of prep football and the agate page is filled with golf leaderboards from non-PGA events? Really? I love golf, but the Times has to go back to printing all the scores again for football. This is brutal.

Times has literally no resources anymore

Print?

If you want Rockford area scores I usually post a lot on Twitter on Friday nights. Usually Belvidere scores but when I see other scores I retweet them

Yeah and that StateLineHub is pretty solid as well except for some reason they hate me. Haters.....what can you do
