Retrieve data from TheBlueAlliance

[Michael Hill]

I must warn if you try to roll your own, FIRST's website does some really goofy session management. For example, if you want to pull a complete team list, you'll want to pull 250 teams/page rather than the default. However, there's no way to do this through just a URL alone. You must first request a page, extract the session ID they give you from an href field (,the myarea var) then use that session ID when you pull the data. It's really silly the way they did it. They store the number of teams to display/page server side rather than client side.
