# Sports Manager Development
## Manager Architecture
All sports managers inherit from base classes and follow consistent patterns:
- **Base classes**: [src/nhl_managers.py](mdc:src/nhl_managers.py), [src/nfl_managers.py](mdc:src/nfl_managers.py)
- **Common functionality**: Data fetching, caching, display rendering
- **Configuration-driven**: Behavior controlled via config sections
## Required Methods
```python
def __init__(self, config, display_manager, cache_manager)
def update(self) # Fetch fresh data
def display(self, force_clear=False) # Render current data
```
## Data Flow Pattern
1. **Fetch**: Get data from API (with caching)
2. **Process**: Extract relevant game information
3. **Filter**: Apply favorite team preferences
4. **Display**: Render to LED matrix
## Logging Standards
- **Structured prefixes**: `[NHL Recent]`, `[NFL Live]`, etc.
- **Context information**: Include team names, game status, dates
- **Debug levels**: Use appropriate log levels (info, debug, warning, error)
- **User-friendly messages**: Explain what's happening and why
## Error Handling
- **API failures**: Log and continue with cached data if available
- **No data scenarios**: Distinguish between API issues vs no games available
- **Off-season awareness**: Provide helpful context during non-active periods
- **Fallback behavior**: Show alternative content when preferred content unavailable
## Configuration Integration
- **Required settings**: Validate on initialization
- **Optional settings**: Provide sensible defaults
- **Background service**: Use for non-blocking data fetching
- **Caching strategy**: Implement intelligent cache management
