I spent the majority of my time looking at the website Statistics in Sports. Often times when I'm watching games on tv the announcer's provide statistical information from games and seasons of the past. But you never really stop to think about all the time and work that goes into compiling those statistics or who for that matter is compiling those stats. This website provides information and links on just about whatever sports category you interested in. Since I'm a sports junkie I liked the Sports Data Resources page that give links to sites such as MLB History, Current NBA Stats, NCAA FInal Four, NFL Statistics Golf.com PGA Tour Statistics. This site also has a Career in Sports Statistics which says, "sports statisticians for teams do not require the academic training of most professional statisticians in statistical history, models and applications. Their primary goal is as collector/validator of data. Their secondary role is identifying newsworthy items of statistical interest at the level of exploratory data analysis".
The Journal of Quantitative Analysis in Sports is one of the premier reserach statistical journals. This journal publishes current research which is peer-reviewed on the quantitative aspects of professional and collegiate sports. It measures player performance, tournament structure, frequency and occurence of records. The site also gives information about yearly conferences and meetings from New England to Northern California. This site is a very good resource tool for professionals in teh sports world who conduct statistical research and raise issuesans ask questions that relate to quantitative sports analysis.
