Everyone has their method of selecting playoff teams and the NFL champion prior to the star of the season. Some use film study while others trust their gut. Others stick with their hometown team or choose using uniform color. This report will use buzz in social media to predict the outcome of the 2010 season.
Scores and odds are the most fundamental tools of any betting strategy. Pre-game odds give you the estimated return on your investment while live scores give you up to the minute tracking of said investment.

Baseball websites are facing financial challenges due to the hiatus, with less traffic and advertising revenue.
Determinants of College Football AttendanceConnor Weaver
The document analyzes factors that affect average attendance at college football games. It reviews literature identifying several potential determinants of attendance, including school undergraduate enrollment, conference average attendance, recruiting rankings, number of teams in the conference, number of home games, strength of schedule, national and conference championships, new coach, presence of a pro team, win percentage, weeks ranked in the top 25, and number of conference championships. Regression models are estimated using data from the 2010 season for 120 schools. The semi-log model fits the data better, with 8 of the 12 variables found to significantly impact average attendance.

Goldschmidt carried the Cardinals offense to the playoffs. He had a weighted runs created plus of 146, meaning he was 46% better than an average hitter. No other Cardinal was even close. Goldschmidt's 146 wRC+ was 25 percentage points better than his next-closest teammate, Brad Miller, at 121 (and Miller didn't hit at all down the stretch in September). Besides Goldschmidt, Miller and Harrison Bader (113 wRC+) were the only Cardinals who performed better than league average in 2020. None of the other first basemen on the AllMLB ballot were the best hitter on their team by so wide a margin, or had to hit in a lineup with so few above-average hitters. Goldschmidt was all the Cardinals had.

This document examines the effect of high-scoring offenses on attendance rates in the NBA over a 10-season period from 2005-2014. It uses a panel data set and fixed effects model to analyze how offensive output measures impact attendance while controlling for other factors. The analysis found that individual offensive output measures were not statistically significant, but the joint effect of a team's entertainment attributes was significant. Additionally, outcome uncertainty was a significant determinant of attendance demand. The purpose is to see if attendance decisions are influenced by a team's offensive characteristics across seasons.

Signing high-priced players may increase a team's profitability by driving increased revenue from multiple sources. A survey of MLB fans found that most would view more games on TV, especially when a new star player debuts for their favorite team. However, the survey surprisingly found that most fans would not actually attend more live games if a star player was signed. Regression analysis confirmed a strong relationship between a fan's excitement level over a player signing and their increased likelihood to watch more TV and buy more merchandise. However, excitement did not correlate with attending more live games. So signing stars mainly boosts TV viewership and merchandise sales revenue rather than ticket revenue.

Indian Premier League (IPL) ---2024.pptxrathinikunj60
The Indian Premier League (IPL) is one of the most prominent and lucrative Twenty20 (T20) cricket leagues in the world. Since its inception in 2008, the IPL has revolutionized the landscape of cricket by blending sports, entertainment, and commerce. This summary provides an overview of the IPL's history, structure, notable performances, controversies, and its impact on cricket and beyond.
History and Formation
The IPL was launched by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) in 2008, inspired by the success of domestic T20 leagues like the English T20 Cup and the now-defunct Indian Cricket League (ICL). Lalit Modi, the then Vice-President of BCCI, played a crucial role in conceptualizing and launching the league. The inaugural season kicked off in April 2008 with eight franchises representing different cities in India.
Structure and Format
The IPL follows a franchise-based model, where teams are owned by a mix of corporations, Bollywood stars, and other high-profile individuals. The league originally started with eight teams, although the number has fluctuated over the years due to various reasons including expansions and terminations. As of the latest seasons, the IPL features ten teams.
The tournament format includes a double round-robin stage, where each team plays the others twice, followed by playoffs. The top four teams from the round-robin stage qualify for the playoffs, which consist of two qualifiers, an eliminator, and the final. This format ensures a highly competitive and engaging tournament, culminating in a grand finale to crown the champion.
Teams and Their Evolution
The founding teams of the IPL were:
Chennai Super Kings (CSK)
Delhi Daredevils (now Delhi Capitals)
Kings XI Punjab (now Punjab Kings)
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR)
Mumbai Indians (MI)
Rajasthan Royals (RR)
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)
Deccan Chargers (now defunct, replaced by Sunrisers Hyderabad)
Over the years, the league has seen new teams such as Pune Warriors India, Kochi Tuskers Kerala, Gujarat Lions, and Rising Pune Supergiant. The most recent additions are the Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, introduced in the 2022 season.
Iconic Players and Performances
The IPL has attracted the best talent from around the world, with numerous iconic players making significant contributions. Some of the standout performers include:
Sachin Tendulkar (MI): The "Little Master" brought his legendary status to the IPL, winning the Orange Cap (top run-scorer) in 2010.
Chris Gayle (RCB, KXIP): Known for his explosive batting, Gayle holds the record for the highest individual score in an IPL match (175*).
MS Dhoni (CSK): Dhoni's leadership has been instrumental in CSK's success, leading them to multiple titles.
AB de Villiers (RCB): Renowned for his innovative stroke play, de Villiers has been a consistent match-winner.
Virat Kohli (RCB): The highest run-scorer in IPL history, Kohli's batting prowess is unmatched.

3. The Passion of the Fan The National Football League is the premier professional sports league in the United States and draws a captive of fans audience across the country who live and die with each play of their team. In the past the “passion” of fans was judged by attendance, jersey sales and fan presence in opposing stadiums. The general buzz around a team was also generated by local and national media outlets. Social media has changed that – as the fans’ voices can be heard just as loud and clear as a pundit on a pregame show. This report takes a deep dive into the fan-generated buzz for all 32 teams, predicting the divisional and Super Bowl champions based on the fans’ passion. May sound crazy, but you never know... 3
11. Picking the winners 6 Unlike many methods for season predictions, I used social buzz to select division, conference and championship game winners. My formula equally weighs five variables to predict the top teams in each division, conference and league. These variables include conversation share, positive conversation share (mentions sentimented positive by the tool), negative conversation share (mentions sentimented negative by the tool), SIM score and Net Promoter Score. To select division winners, I ranked each variable on a 1-4 scale (with negative conversation share counting negative 1-4) with the top team receiving four points while the lowest team received one point. The team with the most points is my predicted division champion. In the case of a tie, the overall mentions served as a tiebreaker. Wild Card teams were selected as the two teams with the next highest scores in each conference. In the case of a tie, remaining teams were re-scored against each other. I determined my conference championship picks in a similar fashion with a 1-6 scale and the world champion was determined on a 1-2 scale. In the case of a tie in the championship round the tie-breaker was the team with the overall highest score from all three rounds combined.
12. State of the Fan Heading into the 2010 season, the NFL had an aggregate NPS of 95%. The highest rating for an individual team was 99.98% (St. Louis) and the low was 88.9% (NY Jets). During the month I collected data, there were 527,419 social mentions of the league’s teams. Ninety-four percent were neutral, 4% were positive and just 2% negative. 7

Like many football fans, I am excited for the start of the season and have had discussions and debates in the social Web. I did the research for this report to see if this online passion and buzz had any relation to on-field performance.
