The First Live (sort of) Football Statistics on the Web

These days it is commonplace to be able to view live statistics via the Web for virtually any major sporting event in the world. DavesWeb holds the distinction of being the first site in the world to publish (almost) live football statistics.
Using our own software, on January 28, 1996 we compiled stats for Super Bowl XXX and published them on our own Web site and on Compuserve message boards. We updated our Web site during every timeout and updated our Compuserve posts every quarter.
