Contract Data
The contract data will be taken from http://www.CapGeek.com
Using Player IDs:
- The latest player id is probably 2352 (assigned to Biggs, Taylor, who signed a new entry level contract on 8/9 at 19:46). See http://www.capgeek.com/latest_contracts.php and look for the highest entry for an new signing.
- The first player id is 11 (1 through 10 all give a no player id page).
- Contract history for players by id (e.g. 213) is available from http://www.capgeek.com/players/display.php?id=213
The player name is in a page level 1 header, followed by position and team name (which is hyperlinked) in the page level 2 header.
We want the Contract History. Specifically, the header data, then the following section data. We should also take the known clauses...
There is a bug in the script tha leads to contamination in the data. This can be removed with s/.*CONTRACT DETAILS.*\n//;
Buyout data
All known (to capgeek) buyouts are listed on the page http://www.capgeek.com/buyouts.php
