I recently made a bash script to pull some NBA stats from the ESPN website.
Was pretty simple, althought maybe using beautifulsoup in python would
prove to be more effective.

Anyway not much science here, just doing a lynx -dump
http://path/to/site.html |grep -n3 $1
lynx is a cmd line browser, dump will just send the site to standard ouput
and grep will filter 3 lines around whatever team I put in ($1 means is the
first atribute).

I also when it was long extensive tables I applied sed and cut to get rid
of the excess of text. This was useful on pages like statistics. Again I
would recomend python for a better formated scrapping. But hope this helps
in such task.
