Re: Sports Statistics
John Hollinger and David Berri are doing some interesting work on the NBA in terms of statistical analysis. John Hollinger is on ESPN and David Berri wrote Wages of Wins.
For football, check out footballoutsiders.com, as previously suggested. Excellent site. KC Joyner on ESPN is interesting, but I often feel after reading his articles that a lot of what he does ends up based on a fairly small sample size.
Baseball Prospectus, of course. Duh. Baseball lends itself better to this sort of sabermetrics because it is so much more of an individual's game. The team aspects of basketball and football make it more difficult, which is why this statistical stuff is less developed in those sports.
