Cool project. One suggestion I would make is to 'buffer' your infinite scroll. It gets a little sticky. You could implement something that would always be one page ahead.
On page load you get the first two sets of scroll data. When the user scrolls you show the second set of data you already have and then get the third set of data at that point.
This way you are always ahead and may make the scrolling seem smoother.
Just an idea though, looks good!

Also, I'd use AJAX fetching of the feed contents so that the site can be cached... and use MySQL associative fetch instead of numeric-based arrays! This way you don't have to remember the indexes of the columns in the JS code like you do with scoreurls[i-1][8]... (would become scoreurls[i-1].name instead).
If you want to grab some code of my own RSS aggregator, head over to http://github.com/msmuenchen/skynetrss.
Oh, and please split off the CSS and JS into its own file. Seriously, your server load will become MUCH lower as the JS and CSS can be cached (and if you're good, try out ETag-based caching for the feed content, but this is really complex).
