Download or read book Pro Football Almanac written by Mark Wald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-29 with total page 678 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part reference and part history, this first volume of the Pro Football Almanac collects the betting lines for more than 13,000 pro football games dating back to 1940, including complete NFL seasons since 1954. An opening essay on the history of the pointspread sets the stage for the data that follows. In a lively, flowing narrative, Wald traces the evolution of the pointspread from its beginning as a crude adjunct to betting odds to the standard betting option for football that it is today. Debunking myths and confirming others, Wald shines a spotlight on a subject that continues to be one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented in sports. Of course, the heart of Volume I is the data. Covering three professional leagues (NFL-AFL-AAFC) and over 40 teams, historians and data geeks alike could spend five years on a sandy spit with this tome before dog-earing the pages. Featuring lists of pro football's greatest coaches against the spread and top 5 games as favorite and underdog by team, the Pro Football Almanac, Vol I is the most thoroughly researched work ever published on the subject.

Download or read book Pro Football Almanac Vol II Weather written by Mark Wald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-13 with total page 826 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Search the web and you'll find various analyses of the impact of weather on NFL games. They all have one thing in common-the analysis is good, but the underlying data is suspect. Until now, most pro football weather data are based on daily high, lows, or averages for temperature, wind, and humidity; based on city climate averages; taken from dubious league gamebooks; missing cloud cover and precipitation; based on kickoff conditions only; based on recent or narrow timeframe; unsourced (i.e., where did the data come from and when was it measured?). In this second volume of his Pro Football Almanac series, Mark Wald collects empirical weather data for every outdoor pro football game played since hourly surface observations became standard-the 1940s for most teams, back to 1937 for a few others. 12,189 games covering three professional leagues: AAFC, AFL, NFL Temperature, humidity, wind, gust, wind chill, cloud cover, and precipitation Up to four data points per game, covering three hours Measured at the time games were played, by the nearest NOAA weather station Pro Football Almanac Vol II is the most accurate pro football weather resource ever compiled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.
