  • New York Giants 2012 Season Recap 2012 New York Giants
    NEW YORK GIANTS 2012 SEASON RECAP The 2012 Giants finished 9-7 and in second place in the NFC East. It was the eighth consecutive season in which the Giants finished .500 or better, their longest such streak since they played 10 seasons in a row without a losing record from 1954-63. The Giants finished with a winning record for the third consecutive season, the first time they had done that since 1988-90 (when they were 10-6, 12-4, 13-3). Despite extending those streaks, they did not earn a postseason berth. The Giants lost control of their playoff destiny with back-to-back late-season defeats in Atlanta and Baltimore. They routed Philadelphia in their finale, but soon learned they were eliminated when Chicago beat Detroit. The Giants compiled numerous impressive statistics in 2012. They scored 429 points, the second-highest total in franchise history; the 1963 Giants scored 448. The 2012 season was the fifth in the 88-year history of the franchise in which the Giants scored more than 400 points. The Giants scored a franchise- record 278 points at home, shattering the old mark of 248, set in 2007. In their last three home games – victories over Green Bay, New Orleans and Philadelphia – the Giants scored 38, 52 and 42 points. The 2012 team allowed an NFL-low 20 sacks. The Giants were fourth in the NFL in both takeaways (35, four more than they had in 2011) and turnover differential (plus-14, a significant improvement over 2011’s plus-7). The plus-14 was the Giants’ best turnover differential since they were plus-25 in 1997.

All of us 300 hitters read today's "Times" with mixed emotions. I regret that Yale will be losing a great coach but happiness is knowing that you will continue to make a significant contribution to American sports, in whatever you decide to do.

I will never forget the spirit we had, the pure enjoyment of it all, and the great benefits I felt that I got as a person playing for a wonderful coach, a real gentleman, and most importantly, a warm and close friend. Bar joins me in sending our love to Doris, on this significant occasion, my thanks to you for everything you did for me and for Yale baseball. Congratulations, and warmest regards, George H. W. Bush.

  • Grandich Comes out in Support of David Tyree
    Peter Grandich, Managing Member Office Location: 2431 Atlantic Ave, Manasquan (Wall), NJ [email protected] Mailing Address P.O. Box 245, Perrineville, NJ 08535 DATE: June 20, 2011 CONTACT: Peter Grandich Phone 732-642-3992 [email protected] Grandich comes out in support of David Tyree WALL, NJ - This is America, the birthplace of freedom in the modern world; where freedom of speech is not just guaranteed, it is one of the foundations upon which our country was established. In the U.S.A., everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. Except, it seems, for 2008 Super Bowl sensation David Tyree. In an online video posted June 15, Tyree made some gutsy statements about his views of gay marriage, and has since taken a beating in the media for it. Tyree, the former NY Giant whose “Helmet Catch” was the defining moment of Super Bowl XLII and one of the greatest plays in Super Bowl history, recorded the video because he opposes the notion of gay marriage, and says he’s simply voicing his opinion. “I am not political,” he says in the video. “I believe there is right and wrong. I think many things are subjective, but truth is not. Marriage [among a man and woman] is the backbone of our society.” In response to the negative avalanche of comments published about Tyree and the video, market commentator Peter Grandich has come out in his defense. Grandich, managing member of Trinity Financial Sports & Entertainment Co., blogged on his internationally-followed social and economic blog Grandich.com that he supports Tyree and agrees with his conservative stance.

The Value of Sports Teams: The Influence of Coaches, Fans, and Players on Value Montgomery Gray FYEN-125-FH Professor Kilgallen December 14, 2018 The Value of Sports Teams 1 Abstract In this paper, I argue that the true value of a team comes from the coaches, fans, and players. These are the people who influence the monetary and competitional success of a team, so are the ones who affect the value the most. Growing up, I have always been a part of a sports team and have cheered for multiple professional teams across numerous sports, but I have always questioned how a team should be valued. I have also always been in business, so I believed that the monetary value was a good source but have found that it goes much deeper than that.

Since ordinary least-squares (OLS) methods assume independent observations, results may be biased as player performance is dependent on other players. As such, a Bayesian approach to allow for non-independence among player performance is used to evaluate players in contract years relative to their peers.
