These line up exactly where I was at mentally while picking my bracket. Phenomenal work.

No Vanessa De Jesus probably hurts big time there…
If you are a current student 18 years or older and will be enrolled through November 2026, sign up at datachallenge.smt.com
Teams of up to 4 are allowed and if you want us to help you find teammates we can do that!
Let me know if you have any questions!
Registration for the 2026 #SMTDataChallenge is OPEN! We want to see what you would put “On the Big Screen!” We want to see how you can tell stories like SMT through a metric, visualization, or interactive fan experience that could be displayed on a MiLB scoreboard!
I've been working on a form of this project since I was a kid, so really excited to share this article about Scenario Trees. Given a schedule input, scenario trees visualize all possible outcomes. Going to be awesome during conference tournaments!

Similar note: Great company culture and people as well. They were so great to me as an intern and have been since - checking in on me periodically and responding to my messages about WBB. Thanks so much y’all
Breaking from @basketball-reference.com: Women’s College Basketball Scores and stats back to 1982!!!!!!! They now have almost complete coverage of NCAA WBB. Crazy to think just 3 summers ago I interned there and tried to find records and conferences. So proud and thankful
Congrats!!!!!! That’s awesome!
Great stuff by Josiah! Great follow for WBB Analytics!
Big thanks to @acrossthetimeline.com, @basketball-reference.com, and @herhoopstats.com as well as the other various sources I was able to cite for great record keeping on the history of WNBA Expansion!
Now that the @wnba.com Finals are over, it’s time for the @portlandfire.bsky.social and @tempobasketball.bsky.social Expansion! With a new CBA, massive free agency, and 2 teams coming into the league the Expansion Draft Rules are likely different. My thoughts below:

Update for @sickoscommittee.org:
US Fistball Championship 2025 was an absolute blast!
The South Jersey Spicy Salmon men’s team took a 3-1 victory over the Wisconsin Fistball Association.
For the women, the South Jersey battled back from down 2-1 to win in 5 vs SSC.
Need a Sickos Team in 2026!
Heck of a run sir 🫡
Turns out Home Court Advantage matters in the WNBA Playoffs. I love the 1-1-1 format. #NowYouKnow #TakeCover
Congrats!!!
How did GB Tug of War get more votes than Chinese Taipei Tug of War 🤦♂️ We are better than this y’all
Current Rating of Best Finishes in TWG 2025:
1) W Fistball Brazil coming back from down 0-2 in sets to win the Gold
2) Canada Football beating Japan in the Semis
3) Hungary Buzzer Beater in Poland in Beach Korfball
4) Czechia’s Golden Goal vs Germany to send them to the Semis in Indoor Korfball
The 2 QB system that Canada just pulled out was 🔥.
Correct, according to the rules no blocking. Center is an eligible receiver though
What the (Gaby) Heck?!? Brazil utterly dominates Germany in The World Games Men’s Fistball gold medal match. Absolute must watch @sickoscommittee.org
As we saw on stream, didn’t happen but would love to see Canada Fistball become a thing!
WE’RE GOING TO A FIFTH SET! Potentially the biggest upset this World Games if Chile can pull it off!
Agreed not on IFF, but on ISBC. Reminds me of the World Police and Fire Games this summer (in Birmingham AL) when they ran out of medals 😂

IFF tries so hard with their streams and always gets screwed over during The World Games. This was an interaction I had with them on YouTube back in 2022
Probably an issue of ISBC not having enough cameras for all the events. Other sports have had games on secondary fields not broadcasted too. If you try to look back much past Birmingham, you struggle to find footage of anything TWG related unless it’s on a sport’s federation page (like IFF or IFA)
US Fistball National Championship in September?! Sign me up!
Phenomenal. I was a volunteer in Birmingham and met one of the Suriname korfball guys after closing ceremony. Really wished I had photo evidence but here’s a pic of me with the mascots during the ceremony.
HUGE shot right there to keep
it close going into the break for Suriname.
My two quad boxes from earlier this week. Need Sickos Committee to sponsor a team for 2029 Karlsruhe, Germany!!!!
