why not simply scrape this page?  or are you looking for a push of data?

and update whatever you need based off that?

but i get stats and espn power rankings, and spreads from vegas.com/nfl

aightso - how does one go about scraping a page?  Never really had 
any experience with it.  I suppose I could hack through and figure out 
what to do, but can you briefly explain how you do it on that page?

Well, aside from screen scraping being possibly illegal, it's a huge pain.

Basically you have to CFHTTP the page, then perform a bunch of finds to 
find the scores and mid() them out .. and your screen scraping is based 
on consistent html.  I used to do this with Amazon back in the late 90s 
and Amazon changed their html on a weekly basis, which meant I had to 
revamp the screen scraping code.

For an easy-to-scrape scoreboard screen, it's tough to beat this one. 
(you can get just about any sport...)
http://www.sportsnetwork.com/default.asp?c=sportsnetworkpage=nfl/scores/live/scores.htm
or this one
http://scoreboards.aol.com/football/nfl/scoreboard.aspx

Check Stats to see if they can deliver a feed:
http://biz.stats.com/stats_fantasy_statistics.asp

here you can get all of the box scores for a given league for a couple 
hundred bucks a season
http://www.xmlteam.com/flexsport.php


AP Digital also has one you can buy:
