Even though I’m still on Blogger for now, I thought I’d lay out my schedule for GSC basketball this year. The regular season begins on November 15th, and by then I plan to have all eight GSC West teams previewed. Here’s a tentative schedule: Mon 10/22: Harding Wed 10/24: Arkansas Tech Fri 10/26: Arkansas-Monticello Mon […]
Month: October 2007
First Look at Basketball Prospectus
Last month, I mentioned that Ken Pomeroy (of kenpom.com) and John Gasaway (of Big Ten Wonk) were going to be collaborating on a new effort to bring basketbal statistics closer to the mainstream. Their method: a spin-off of Baseball Prospectus with the same look, feel, and (effectively) name: Basketball Prospectus. The site made its debut […]
Nickel Creek at the Tivoli: October 14, 2007

Football Notes + Still working on the site
This is taking much longer than I expected. I have a Braves Check ready, but I want it to be on the old site. I’ll be doing a clean new installation pretty soon if I can’t get the bugs worked out this week. For now, I’ll share just a few football thoughts, note-style: The 49ers […]
Football Notes: Perhaps I should have bought someone else's jersey
NFL Notes I may have mentioned on here before that I’ll be attending the 11/4 game between the Falcons and 49ers in Atlanta. What I probably haven’t mentioned is that I bough my first piece of licensed NFL apparel in preparation for this game: a replica Alex Smith jersey. Hopefully he’ll be healthy enough to […]
