The Fighting Irish will
be televised

It's been a good Labor Day for Jacked. The online video dashboard creator has acquired US$ 6.5 million in its first round funding and closed its first deal with NBCSports.com.

Jacked will power NBCSports.com's Play Action, an "online in-game app for the 2007 Notre Dame football season," according to paidContent.

The app is comprised of 19 widgets meant to interact with the game on TV. Widgets include real-time stats, photos, player info, play-by-play, chat, and direct buying of team merchandise through Amazon.

Jacked hopes to enable the same functionalities for other sports teams in the future.
