Screenshots on the homepage are a bit confusing - seems like you should be able to sign up right from the homepage, but then you have to click through.

Dig the idea, but agree the design is lacking. I'm still going to subscribe - good luck!

Nice work! Just out of curiosity, where are you pulling live scores from?

Seems easy and has a simple call to action.

However, I personally think AreYouWatchingThis cannot be beat. The founder has been working in this space for over four years now and is a model of dogged determination. RUWT? is a great example for entrepreneurs of how to keep going and refuse to go away quietly when you have a hold of a good idea.

I've found some data sources online (different ones for each sport). It's probably not totally legal but I'll post the links when I get home.

Thanks for the feedback!

Yea was sent that yesterday but didn't look much into it until now. Wow, it's pretty impressive. Props to Phillip for doing the complete product on his own.
