Product Description:

Keep an eye on your favorite sports teams - all the information you need in one single and small widget. Show the current scoreboard, full results from previous days, the upcoming schedule (game times are displayed in your local time), or current division and standings. The widget supports Baseball (MLB and minor leagues down to Class A), Basketball (NBA, WNBA, and Men's NCAA College), Football (NFL and NCAA College), and Hockey (NHL). You can open multiple instances of the widget to track different sports or teams - each instance of the widget will remember your selections.

What's new in this version:

Improvements/bug fixes:

  • General
    • Improve smoothness of widget resizing for small display sizes.
    • Properly highlight new scores on scoreboard with double-header games - the previous version would highlight scores in the completed game as changed.
    • Remove current mouseover highlights when closing the Dashboard to avoid display glitch when showing the Dashboard again.
  • Baseball
    • Improve linescore display for games with more than 18 innings played.
    • Show the reason for rescheduling instead of the scheduled first batter for games postponed before the first pitch.
    • Fix loading of minor leagues scoreboards with no games scheduled.
  • Hockey
    • Correct scoreboard and linescore display for games with multiple over time periods - such games showed up as ended by shootout before.

Great concept, excellent functionality (especially like the rollovers) and I really wish I could use this. Unfortunately, the background is so complex, I'm unable to read the scores quickly for most all of the sports (especially basketball). The goal of any good design is to find the perfect balance of form and function. Sadly for the user, function has been almost completely sacrificed in this widget just so there can be a snazzy background.

Sports Fan Widget offers NO Women's College or Professional Basketball. Never heard for Title 9? Send this program back to the 1950s :-(
