Why doesnt CD just scrape the FIRST website for this like, for example, FRC Spy does?

Does FRC Spy just "scrape" the FIRST website? If so, where on the FIRST website does it get individual match data for Bridge, Foul, Hybrid, and TeleOp?

Sorry, typo, I meant FRC Spyder, the Android/iOS app done by Wildstang, which probably gets it's data from a private server that does the scraping for it and maybe aggregates the FIRST web data with the Twitter data, though I'm disinclined to believe the only way to access match-by-match data is the twitter feed.
FRC Spy, the CD tool, from what I've seen gets almost all it's data from the FRC Fms Twitter feed, https://twitter.com/#!/frcfms.

Why do you say "almost"? The FRC Spy match data appears to be an exact copy of the Twitter match data. The data fields and the data appear to be identical, and FRC Spy contains all the same errors and omissions as the Twitter feed.

BTW, does anyone have any insight into what happened to the Twitter (and FRC Spy) match-by-match data for the Oregon and Traverse City events? That data is totally missing.
