Games 11/23 & 11/26

[matthewcampbell10]

Anyone else having an issue loading data for games that occured 11/23 and 11/26?

[matthewcampbell10]

Am i the only one having this issue?

Found this in one of the threads below
From your python scripts folder: python nflgame-update-schedule --year 2017
This essentially rebuilt the entire 2017 schedule from scratch.
Then I ran nfldb-update. This loaded data from over 500 games! I think I am up to date now

Thanks for the info! I dont seem to have the nflgame-udpate-schedule file in my folder....cant seem to find it here either...would you mind sharing this script?
