I was recently attempting to see if any other sports than baseball had attempted to do sabermetric type breakdowns of their sport. Turns out that Football fans have. Here's their site and an article relating to the history of statistics in American football
Football Outsiders (http://www.footballoutsiders.com/about.php)
Football Outsiders brings you a series of brand new, in-depth statistics you can't find anywhere else. With these stats, we will attempt to bring objective analysis to football that matches the revolution in baseball writing and analysis over the past 20 years.
They have links to similar sites here. (http://www.footballoutsiders.com/links.php)
Number Crunching: Why doesn't football have a Bill James? (http://slate.msn.com/id/2092863/)
Just thought it'd be an interesting blueprint on how another sport has adopted this way of thinking.
