Wow... I had the exact same idea (even the terms you used for some of it) and was gonna start implementing as soon as I'm done with my current project.
I guess you saved me some work :-)
I wish you a lot of success. I would love to see the site grow and become a great place for soccer fans to get their news. You can count me in as a member. I'll join soon.
Thanks, and I'm glad to have you on board. If you have any ideas, drop me a line.
First observation, I'm logging in from a laptop with a small screen (15") and I have to scroll left-right. It would have been nice if it fits into the page (like news.yc).
Huh really? I'm logged in from a macbook (13 in) and it fits fine. Its also a fluid layout so it should resize automatically. I'll take a look and see what's causing it. Anyone else having this problem?
Edit: alrite... I've deployed a fix to the CSS. It should fit the screen now. Can you try it out and get back to me?
It's looking good now but i'm using Firefox on Ubuntu.. Earlier I was looking at it in Firefox on a PC running Windows...
I'll look at it again tomorrow from my windows machine at work and get back to you.
You probably don't need to. I think it was an error on my part in the CSS file. In either case, let me know if it recurs or there's another bug. Thanks for the input :)

"...allows you to gain points (like Digg/Reddit) and then wager those points on matches being played."
That's a really nice idea! Good luck with it.
Its a digg like website for football (soccer) news that I launched yesterday. It allows you to gain points (like Digg/Reddit) and then wager those points on matches being played.
Built using Ruby on Rails. Thoughts?
