NFL Pick'em App - Check it out

I've posted here a couple times in the last year, but wanted to show everyone the latest version. I made a video based on this week's preseason games. The only MAJOR issue I'm facing is the fact that Yahoo! has not opened up the API for Pick'em leagues. Dear Yahoo!, wake up and give us access!!! As a workaround, we have a Google Spreadsheet where the picks and spreads are copied into each week.

If anyone has ideas on how to automate getting the picks via JSON or XML, or other means, I'm all ears. Otherwise, enjoy the video and let me know your feedback.
