Both could also apply to teams. Also hCalendar could describe
trophies/honours won.
The only thing really missing is a way of describing scores. A
seperate score for each team, associated with the game itself (which
is perhaps hCalendar). Could this be generic enough to support more
than just football - eg. Cricket, scores by innings, results like "won
by an innings and 53 runs" or Baseball where the box scores might be
required. Or should it be a seperate 'score microformat' for each
sport which can then be slotted into a consistent framework?
Hmmmm.. good question. I think score is certainly a beyond the scope
of an existing format that I can think of.
So, everything else relating to sports aside (I think existing formats
cover most aspects), this would be the only part that might need
rethinking.
I must admit, I'm not a sports fan so my domain knowledge is slight,
so I would benefit from seeing a nice range of examples of sporting
scores and what the important values are in relation to each other
first before ruling out all the existing formats though!
