where did you get the schdule?

I was curious how did you get the schedule for all the games:

https://github.com/BurntSushi/nflgame/blob/master/nflgame/schedule.json

[ochawkeye]

From nflgame/nflgame/update_sched.py:

def schedule_url(year, stype, week):
    """
    Returns the NFL.com XML schedule URL. `year` should be an
    integer, `stype` should be one of the strings `PRE`, `REG` or
    `POST`, and `gsis_week` should be a value in the range
    `[0, 17]`.
    """
    xmlurl = 'http://www.nfl.com/ajax/scorestrip?'
    if stype == 'POST':
        week += 17
        if week == 21:  # NFL.com you so silly
            week += 1
    return '%sseason=%d&seasonType=%s&week=%d' % (xmlurl, year, stype, week)

Something like: http://www.nfl.com/ajax/scorestrip?season=2014&seasonType=REG&week=1

Thanks @ochawkeye.

@cmosguy Everything with respect to nflgame (that I've written) is open source. So it's all there. If you're curious where other stuff has come from, just ask. :-)

@ochawkeye @BurntSushi this is so great thanks for your help with this! BTW, just curious, have you ever figured out how to pull scores for all the NCAA football games?

[BurntSushi]

@cmosguy Nope. Never really looked into it.

You can get scores and many other stats here: http://sportsdatabase.com/ncaafb/query. There's an API, too--pretty great site.
