WIS Profile Accelerator
An accelerator is a new feature of Internet Explorer 8 that makes web navigation faster and easier.
If the highlighted content is a team name or player name in the MLB, NBA, NFL, or NHL, the WhatIfSports Profile
Accelerator will open the related profile page.

accelerators will appear. In "More Accelerators" you should see an item called "Find Team/Player on WhatIfSports". If you hover
