Sports

Pepper keeps up with the teams, leagues, players and events you follow, and tells you what happened to them. It lives in the Sports chip of the Following app, at /apps/following. The old Sports page on the web redirects there.

What you can follow

Setting it up

Two ways, and you can mix them freely:

Either way it's the same list — what you say and what you tap end up in the same place.

You can follow every league and every big event Pepper covers, all at once — those aren't capped below what's on offer. Clubs, people and countries have limits (200 clubs, 200 people — a count shared with any club Pepper has no scoreboard for — and 50 countries across all tournaments), set well past what anyone follows. If you ever do fill one, Pepper tells you which follow it couldn't add and asks you to drop one first, whether you were tapping in the app or asking in the conversation — it won't quietly leave it out.

What you see

Recent results, anything live, and what's coming up — for your clubs, plus every game in the leagues you follow as a whole. A big event that is a league's playoffs — the World Series, the Super Bowl, March Madness — shows that league's postseason games under the event itself, whether or not you also follow the league or one of its clubs. Each finished game shows the score, both teams' records, and the wire's own recap sentence where there is one.

Times are always in your timezone.

Asking about it

Following is a screen; the conversation is where the analysis lives. With it open you can ask "how did they look?", "what did I miss this weekend?", "what's on tonight?" and Pepper answers over the top of it, without you leaving the app.

When you follow people, asking for scores also brings back a short Following section on them.

The read

Under the scores, the app writes a short read — a few sentences on what the results actually mean for the things you follow, rather than a second list of them. It arrives a moment after the scores, so the numbers are on screen first.

You get one whether or not there's a scoreboard behind what you follow. For something no scoreboard covers — the Olympics, a club nobody's feed carries — the read is written from what a search can find about the events and countries you follow, and it says that's where it came from. It also refreshes more often than a read of games does, because there are no scores changing underneath it to say when it's gone stale.

When scores aren't available

Pepper reads a live scoreboard first. If it can't be reached — or for something no scoreboard covers, like the Olympics — Pepper searches the web instead and says so, so you know when a number is a confirmed result and when it's the best a search could find. It won't guess a score from memory.

Following countries at the Olympics works, and shapes what Pepper goes looking for — how your countries are doing, and the medal table — but there are still no live scores behind it, and the app says so. What you get there is the read above rather than a fixture list.
