League standings (rank, W-L-D, points, goals/points for & against, goal difference, streak) and team directories (name, abbreviation, location, colors, logo, venue) across the major leagues — NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, Premier League, La Liga, Champions League and more — from ESPN's public endpoints.

What it does

• Standings — full table per league: rank, games played, wins/losses/ties, points, points/goals for & against, differential, win %, streak, and qualification notes.
• Teams — the league's team directory: name, abbreviation, location, primary/alternate colors, logo, and venue.
• Multiple leagues in one run (grouped standings — divisions/conferences — are flattened with a group label).
• Export to JSON, CSV, or Excel, or pull via the Apify API.
