  • Detroit's Thanksgiving Day Tradition
    DETROIT’S THANKSGIVING DAY TRADITION It was, legend says, a typically colorful, probably chilly, November day in 1622 that Pilgrims and Native Americans celebrated the new world's bounty with a sumptuous feast. They sat together at Plymouth Plantation (they spelled it Plimouth) in Massachusetts, gave thanks for the goodness set before them, then dined on pumpkin pie, sweet potatoes, maize, cranberry sauce, turkey and who knows what else. Actually, fish was just as predominant a staple. And history books say pumpkin pie really debuted a year later. But regardless of the accuracy of the details, that's how Thanksgiving Day is seen by Americans -- except Detroiters. They may have most of the same images as everyone else, but with a new twist that began in 1934. That's when Detroiters and their outstate Michigan compatriots found themselves at the dawn of an unplanned behavior modification, courtesy of George A. "Dick" Richards, owner of the city's new entry in the National Football League: The Detroit Lions. Larry Paladino, Lions Pride, 1993 Four generations of Detroiters have been a proud part of the American celebration of Thanksgiving. The relationship between Detroit and Thanksgiving dates back to 1934 when owner G.A. Richards scheduled a holiday contest between his first-year Lions and the Chicago Bears. Some 75 years later, fans throughout the State of Michigan have transformed an annual holiday event into the single greatest tradition in the history of American professional team sports. Indeed, if football is America’s passion, Thanksgiving football is Detroit’s passion. DETROIT AND THANKSGIVING DAY No other team in professional sports can claim to be as much a part of an American holiday as can the Detroit Lions with Thanksgiving.

  • Rigorous Cluster Analyses for Prospective Player Evaluation In
    Rigorous Cluster Analyses For Prospective Player Evaluation In The National Football League Max Isaac Mulitz1 Brown University December 2015 I wish to express my appreciation to my thesis advisor, Professor Francesco Di Plinio, for his guidance and support throughout the research process and to Professor Mark Dean who served as my second reader. I would also like to thank Dr. Kevin Dayaratna for his voluntary guidance and insights in discussing the issues addressed in this thesis. I also wish to thank those coaches and advisors that directed and assisted me toward this interest including: Coach Nelson Burton, Coach Tom Green, Katherine Russell, Frank Costello, Coach Phil Estes and Brown University Football, and Coach Chip Kelly and the Philadelphia Eagles Organization. 1 Abstract This study uses principal component as well as k-means cluster analysis to evaluate prospects who enter the National Football League (NFL) draft. We also explore whether such analysis creates the opportunity to take advantage of inefficiencies in the NFL draft as a market. We find that for offensive tackles, both speed and explosiveness-based athleticism have a positive relationship with career performance, even after discounting for draft position. Our results have useful managerial implications, suggesting that many NFL managers currently undervalue athleticism in the offensive tackle position when selecting players in the draft. 2 1. Introduction The National Football League (NFL) is a multi-billion dollar business (Keenan, 2014). In principle, team quality influences the size of the teams fan base, which in turn sets the market for television rights, ticket sales and other moneys the team can make selling memorabilia, etc.
