NFL API Access? #2

Did you ever get an NFL API key/secret? I'd love to build an app but haven't heard anything from the link on the site. Does your API work to authenticate?

Hi,

Unfortunately, no. I tried to get access also through NFL and Yahoo. Neither one really worked out well for me. ESPN used to have a public API key but they discontinued that as well. I've been looking for a fantasy football data website to finish my app, but I haven't had any luck finding any others except for ones that are out of my budget.

I've started building an API that screen scrapes the nfl site. It's rudimentary but seems to be working.
