it's being dropped because flash is horrible in terms of security and performance. It was only meant to be something to make a part of a website look pretty, not be used to drive entire websites or build apps. Firefox and one other main browser are dropping support for it, Adobe no longer is supporting flash itself, so it's only a matter of time (but nobody knows for sure how long) before the others follow suit and people will have to use an old browser to view games.

For supporters, the play-by-play data is updated live as the game progresses. I am sure you could figure a way for a new viewer to scrape that data every couple of minutes, without accessing something that you shouldn't be accessing. Of course that would be for supporters only.
