    DetroitBaseball it only sucks what you tell it to.
    This is a very good app.
    If you want just a ticker there is some overhead with the full reader sitting in the systray.
    It would be superb with skin/color mods on the ticker frame.

    I do not recommend NewsPiper, it is a nice program but it eats too much bandwith.
