    Does anybody know of an application or website where I can sync my BBcalender with my favorite sports team's schedule? Maybe something that has an alert to tell me who and where they are playing, something that reminds me before the game starts?

    I used google sync to sync my Dodgers schedule to my Blackberry. It was a .csv file from the Dodgers MLB site and it worked with a little bit of editing. You could use outlook as well.

    After import and sync I got the schedule on my BB with alerts for game times etc.....

    Roger That! No worries - enjoy. If ya use Google and get stuck with bad import message let me know I got the workaround fix, it all depends on what the csv file looks like - if you in fact get a csv file and not some other format...

    Yeah the standard message from google if its in the incorrect .csv format will say that. People try for weeks thinking the calendar is down hehehe. I had to tweak mine for it to work. I have Vista so that was my only option

    Google will not accept them as they normally are START_DATE,START_TIME,START_TIME_ET,SUBJECT,LOCATI ON etc..... I just went in and took out all the underscores to fit their requirements.....instant success

    Glad you are sorted out......good luck Celtics.

    I went to celtics.com, clicked on schedule, and the directions for outlook syncing were perfect. Then I used the DM to sync. Check out celtics.com and look at the directions. And while you're there, pay some respect to the CHAMPS.

    Microsoft will let you download office trial free for 60 days. Either that or try google calender.

    Alan is correct and I would recommend Outlook over google simply because if you wanted to import the .csv it would more than likely have to be edited a little to work on google calendars import. Nothing hard, just extra work is all... Both work great and I love having my calendar set up for my teams. That along with my alerts keeps me always in the loop of the best team in baseball. That's right!! The Dodgers!!!!!!!
