What is up with NFL.com GameCenter these days?

[lmcjaho]

So last week was Thanksgiving here in Canada, so I ended up at the in-laws for turkey on Sunday and they have no satellite or cable

No problem says I - I'll just follow the action on the GameCenter and keep up-to-date that way...

Well, it sucked. The stupid "auto-refresh" seemed to be busted because it would often go 5-10 minutes without a refresh (supposed to be every 30 secs I think). It always seemed to get hung up in the red zone too so I would be waiting to see the result of a drive and then BOOM - once the refresh came in the other team would already be a couple of plays into their post-kickoff series The worst part is a manual refresh doesn't help - it actually seemed to back things up a few times

Fast forward to today - the stupid site had a 3rd TD for TO in the stats line but never updated it into the play-by-play (so I couldn't figure out if it was for real or not) until like an hour after the game had finished Now, hours after the KC/Pitt game is done, Pittsburgh's sack of Brodie Croyle on his first pass attempt still doesn't show up in the list of stats for IDPs on the Game Stats, but it does show in the play-by-play and in the Team Stats link

Anybody else notice an inordinate amount of errors with this thing the past couple of weeks?

NFL.com's Gamecenter has always been slow, at least in my experience. I don't really use it except maybe to for a quick check on scores.

You can try Yahoo's Gamechannel. I haven't used it much personally, but its similar to NFL.com's version. But one thing I don't like about it is that it runs on Flash and slow the crap out of your computer. Well, at least it used to when I tried it when it first came out last year. FOX and CBS might have something similar too, but I've never looked.

While it admittedly has more than its fair share of times where it lags behind I haven't noticed near the problems you're describing (except maybe week 1, which is always the case).

I did notice it fall behind a couple times yesterday but sportsline and gamechannel were stuck at the same spots so I'm guessing there was some problem getting the stats in from the actual games at that time since every source was behind.

I noticed it too, it blew yesterday.

At least it's one of the "FREE" things the NFL provides... everything seems to have a price tag these days.

Did you notice the advertising(on the drive window it came up)? That's new.
