  • 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.

  • Wilt Chamberlain Bench Press
    Wilt chamberlain bench press Continue .embed-container : position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; height: auto; .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed - position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; Wilt Chamberlain was and is the last what-if, or something like it. What he did as a player makes our current definition of dominant appearance distorted and, to be honest, silly. In the 1961–62 season with the Philadelphia Warriors, he averaged more than 50 points and 25 rebounds. Now, when I look at his career, there are so many hypotheses that come to mind. Chamberlain himself was asked a group of them. In 1997, Conan O'Brien wondered how Chamberlain would go against Shaquille O'Neal. He plays a completely different kind of basketball game, Chamberlain said. He uses his physicality and he's a big, strong guy, and that works well in today's game. If he was facing me and other guys of my time, not so well. I'm a bench boy pressing around £600 when I was at my best. A 600-pound bench is an absurd number – the kind you should see you should see believe – that makes it perfect for Chamberlain. It's natural to be curious about how Chamberlain's game would translate into the current era. Since the Sixers retired the number 13 jersey 29 years ago today, it seems like a good time to dive a little bit on this topic. (You can watch the full jersey ceremony retreat below, including an excellent opening from Marc sumoff.) Chamberlain's rebound would probably have brought good to the modern game.

  • Dolph Schayes and the Rise of Professional Basketball by Dolph Grundman
    Sport History Review, 2015, 46, 325 -335 http://dx.doi.org/10.1123/shr.2015-0029 © 2015 Human Kinetics, Inc. BOOK REVIEWS Dolph Schayes and the Rise of Professional Basketball By Dolph Grundman. Published in 2014 by Syracuse University Press (193 pp., $24.95 USD, clothback) Reviewed by Chad Carlson, Hope College, Michigan Dolph Grundman has earned his reputation as a top-notch researcher of basketball history. Indeed, his work on the National Amateur Athletic Union tournament, The Golden Age of Amateur Basketball, has been well received for its deep research, flowing prose, and insightful content. The Golden Age provides a rich and critical history of amateur basketball. Grundman’s latest book, Dolph Schayes and the Rise of Professional Bas- ketball, does not have the contextual depth and all-encompassing scope of the author’s previous work, despite its ambitious title. Nor does the author seem to have the same goals in this recent work. Dolph Schayes is a shorter volume: five chapters span only 163 pages of narrative—far too brief to detail the multiphased rise of professional basketball (Dolph Schayes retired from professional basketball coaching in 1972—two years before the critical phase when the National Basketball Association [NBA] merged with the American Basketball Association). In certain parts of the book, Grundman is reflective, as he inserts his interview experiences into the prose. The author transparently explains that Schayes was a player who “intrigued me” (p. xiii) when the author was a child, in part because the two shared an uncommon and unpopular first name. Indeed, the introduction is titled, “My Day with Dolph Schayes.” Grundman introduces some of his quotes in unique historical style, using such phrases as, “he told me .
