For sports fans, the ticker displays up-to-the-minute information on the home and visiting team money lines, the over/under totals, and both the home and away spreads, for all major sports events and games, says the release. In addition, in-depth reports on injured players — with detailed notes on the injury — are displayed on a team-by-team basis, so fans are armed with the latest information on who’s playing and who’s not.
