The main problem with this kind of economic analysis for sports is that sports franchises don't compete with each other the way businesses do. In...
The fewer people playing, the greater the impact of any one person. Assume that the distribution of basketball playing ability has something akin...
He was arrested for resisting arrest. That means they didn't have anything real to charge him with other than being drunk and obnoxious at 2am....
The guy was just reposting my typo. I disagree with what he's saying, but I would ease off on mocking anyone over a typo, especially when its...
First thing I responded to was Wilt's athletic ability. Not only was he by far the best athlete of his generation, but he would still be the...
I forgot to add one thing: From 1955 to 1982, the penalty situation gave a player three free throws to make two on a shooting foul. Thus, there...
I think everyone agrees that Dwight Howard is the best center in the game now, right? He's maybe 6' 10" tall, a great defender and rebounder and...

OK, here's my list, but not in any order. All I'm thinking about is guys that I have seen who could completely turn around the character of a...
It's a stupid list, and its entirely driven by stats. Russell should be way higher. Wes Unseld should get a mention on any all defense team,...
They should draft Rubio and then trade him to the Lakers for, maybe, Adam Morrison.
I'd like to see a system that leaned heavier on divisions and thus promoted actual rivalries. If you have to keep the regular season at 82, then...
We complained about it when Malone did it, again and again. And I complain when Kobe does it, time and again, and gets away with it. Let's...
