About AllStar Grid
What this is
AllStar Grid is a home for free daily sports grid games. The NFL section is live: the daily NFL Grid, guess the NFL player, the career path game and played-for-both lists for every pair of teams. The MLB section is live too: the daily MLB Grid, MLB Wordle, the MLB career path and played-for-both lists for all 435 pairs of MLB teams, built from the SABR Lahman Baseball Database (CC BY-SA 3.0). The NBA section is live as well: the daily NBA Grid, NBA Wordle, the NBA career path, NBA Connections, NBA Trivia, played-for-both lists for all 435 pairs of NBA teams and a page for each of the 30 franchises, built from the infoboxes of English Wikipedia player articles (CC BY-SA 4.0) and Wikidata (CC0). Other leagues will only be added once their games are ready and their data is checked. Everything runs in your browser.
Where the facts come from
Player, roster and team facts come from nflverse, a public dataset released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence: names, positions, colleges, jersey numbers, draft years, divisions. Player photos are free-licence files from Wikimedia Commons (public domain, CC0, CC BY or CC BY-SA), each credited. We never use league or broadcaster headshots. Team logos are shown unaltered to identify each team; they are trademarks of their respective teams, and AllStar Grid is not affiliated with the NFL or any team (logos via TheSportsDB).
What we deliberately do not do
We do not ask you to make an account to play. We do not sell your data, because we do not collect it. We do not show gambling or betting adverts. We do not pretend to be the official game: we are independent, and we say so on every page.
Corrections
If a fact is wrong, that is the most useful thing you can tell us: the whole value of a quiz is that the answers are right. Write to the address on the contact page and we will fix the data.
