A little Monday night football
Watching the Cowboys/Buffalo game tonight, I started thinking about the NFL Game Center on nfl.com. They developed a nice little application in flash that lets those who aren’t able to watch the game follow the action in nearly real time. I marveled at this little app the other week when I was following the Broncos game which wasn’t televised. Shows a visual history of the current drive, as well as providing other data like weather, game clock, current down and yards to go, all wrapped in a cool, interactive flash interface. Not to mention the rest of the page contains every game stat you could imagine (if you’re in to that sort of thing).
I have to give the NFL props, great use of an interactive technology, providing a real time option for those who can’t watch the game. Unfortunately, the Cowboys somehow managed to pull off a win tonight…
