All you fantasy football junkies can now get your real-time statistics, text alerts with official NFL injury reports and scoring, manage your team while away from your desktop, and many more updates, says Sprints Press Release Department.

Sprint has team with NFL and NFL.com to create NFL Mobile and NFL.com Fantasy Companion which are made for mobile applications and exclusively for Sprint customers. You can customize the mobile companion to your Fantasy Football needs and track all the information that is applicable to you.

Sprint claims that the stats are updated “within two seconds of game action” which makes them the fastest update and delivery of NFL information for fans and fantasy players. Now you and I both know that our Vision wireless internet doesn’t refresh that quickly but Sprint allows you to setup text messages for specific teams or players and receive text messages when the action occurs. Awesome, so there is just another charge for you to deal with, and with  text message prices increasing from 10 cents to 15 cents a message, you could easily get quite a few dollars in overages.

But the idea seems interesting and the fact that Sprint has worked with NFL and NFL.com to create a better system for Fantasy leaguers to get their stats wherever they are is great.

You download NFL Mobile by texting NFL to 7777 or if you have PCS Vision you can get it from Power Vision home and is free to those customers. Hmmmmm…….. Does that mean if you don’t have Sprint PCS Vision you not only have to pay for your dang phone and text messaging but you have to pay for the service to even allow you to recieve these text messages? If someone out there is using this we’d love your feedback on this wonderful service.
