    database building software?

    I wondering if there is a software that either automatically scrapes box scores and detailed team and player stats or can be set to scrape sports data and then I can go in a create a model that for example searches the database for how teams that are coming off back to back loses on the road of 4 or more runs (MLB) their win percentage when the next game is at home and they are home dogs ect.

    You can do this pretty easily with excel. But I don't think its really going to lead to you making any money.

    If you go the Advanced Search page and input scraping as the search term, select post titles only and select Handicapper Thinktank only.

    You will see quite a few interesting useful threads on the subject.

    i specialize in coding such. after coding a dynamic database, it is then possible to test many scenarios - not just the one you proposed.
