A new service for sports fans!

LOS ANGELES, CA - October 4, 2007 - A new, free service called ProgramPrint.com has been created that allows sports fans to simply and easily print a game program. The information includes previews, statistics, league leaders, injuries and rosters. The program prints out in 2 pages which makes it very convenient to bring to the game, especially if printed in duplex mode. ProgramPrint.com allows the user to select the sporting event they're going to watch, and with one click print a free program sheet with key information. The sheet is useful anywhere you watch a sporting event, from the stadium to sports bars or just watching at home. "ProgramPrint is the perfect resource for sports fans everywhere. It's what real fans have been waiting for", says site creator Dan Parker of Los Angeles. He goes on to say, "Whether it's football, baseball, or basketball, ProgramPrint is the perfect companion for anyone who's going to the game." The site contains programs and schedules for NFL football, Major League Baseball and Division 1 college football. Playoff coverage for these sports will also be included. In addition, ProgramPrint will support Professional and College basketball when their respective seasons start.Information on the site is updated throughout the day, so the program will include up to date lineups, schedules and odds before game time. Printing options for the game programs are set by the user's printer, so duplex mode or two pages on landscape mode can put the program on one sheet of paper. Either way, the final printed program is small enough to fit in the fan's pocket when folded.
