So what is this all about?
I remember one day when I was sitting in church, and the service was
running around the same time the Broncos were playing the 49ers. The 49ers
were rebuilding, they were not the same 49ers that destroyed the Broncos
in the Superbowl. The 49ers were laughing stock for many years until they built a really strong defense.
No one scored more
than 20 points on them, and Frank Gore tore up the field. I was itchy
for the score of the game while I was sitting there waiting for the service to wrap up. You seen
the Simpson's episode where Homer has the AM radio while in church? Well my update was not quite
the same or as disruptive.
Stopping the service midstream, the pastor gave us an update on the Broncos game,
saying that they were up and there was very little time left for the 49ers. Some people
booed, to which the pastor reminded them they were in church and threatened to
extend the service.
Getting score updates has evolved quite a bit. We don't have to pretend to listen to the
sermon while we have the game playing in our ear, and if you are in church, you should be paying
attention. This web site is going to provide a very basic sports ticker, but the
accuracy of it's content will be set by you.
