  • Renormalizing Individual Performance Metrics for Cultural Heritage Management of Sports Records
    Renormalizing individual performance metrics for cultural heritage management of sports records Alexander M. Petersen1 and Orion Penner2 1Management of Complex Systems Department, Ernest and Julio Gallo Management Program, School of Engineering, University of California, Merced, CA 95343 2Chair of Innovation and Intellectual Property Policy, College of Management of Technology, Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland. (Dated: April 21, 2020) Individual performance metrics are commonly used to compare players from different eras. However, such cross-era comparison is often biased due to significant changes in success factors underlying player achievement rates (e.g. performance enhancing drugs and modern training regimens). Such historical comparison is more than fodder for casual discussion among sports fans, as it is also an issue of critical importance to the multi- billion dollar professional sport industry and the institutions (e.g. Hall of Fame) charged with preserving sports history and the legacy of outstanding players and achievements. To address this cultural heritage management issue, we report an objective statistical method for renormalizing career achievement metrics, one that is par- ticularly tailored for common seasonal performance metrics, which are often aggregated into summary career metrics – despite the fact that many player careers span different eras. Remarkably, we find that the method applied to comprehensive Major League Baseball and National Basketball Association player data preserves the overall functional form of the distribution of career achievement, both at the season and career level. As such, subsequent re-ranking of the top-50 all-time records in MLB and the NBA using renormalized metrics indicates reordering at the local rank level, as opposed to bulk reordering by era.

  • Cfabre-Champions Carl
    Carl Fabre 7th Grade St. Francis Middle School P.O. Box 1110 St. Francis, KS 67756 Mrs. Gibson 292 words Champions Champions! The Los Angeles Lakers has won the 2010 NBA championship! I was so excited that I was jumping up and down. I couldn’t stop jumping and screaming that day. My mom told me to settle down. She said that our neighbor Sylvia is probably wondering what’s going on in our house. My parents are not Laker fans. Every time we watch a Laker game they always go for the other team. The Los Angeles Lakers are a two time defending champions. They have won the 2009 and 2010 NBA championship. The Lakers have gone to the finals three times in a row from 2008 to 2010. The Lakers have sixteen championships which is second most in the NBA. In 2008, they were defeated by the Boston Celtics. The Coach of the Lakers is Phil Jackson. Phil Jackson had eleven championship rings, six with the Chicago Bulls and five with the LA Lakers. He has also coached two of the greatest players ever played in the NBA, Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. In 2010 when the LA Lakers won the championship, it was the most epic NBA finals games I have ever seen. In that game, Kobe Bryant was struggling from the field only shooting about 6-24. Without Kobe Bryant, the LA Lakers could barely win. Then Derick Fisher and Ron Artest got into the game and started to make some shots. They made some three pointers and finally tie the game after being down by fourteen points in the fourth quarter.
