Sports Analytics - Has It Made Sports Better or Worse?  Episode 58 - Sports Guyz

The Sports Guyz dive into a topic that is on all sports fans minds the last several years - is Analytics in sports hurting or helping the games?  Or is it a complicated Mixed Bag?  We take a look at an important article on the topic from the Washington Post which summarizes nicely the pros and cons of Analytics in all the major sports and creates a lot of thought-provoking questions that need to be answered. 

How do we know Analytics has gone too far?  What can be done to preserve the natural beauty and spontaneity of the games while continuing to improve team and player performance?  The Sports Guyz look at the huge hit movie MoneyBall from 2011, which launched Sports Analytics into the limelight, and created big momentum for the data movement in all sports.  We get into all these questions for sports overall and then do a sport-by-sport analysis on Analytics and come to a conclusion at the end of the program.

Please drop us a comment on what you think of Analytics in Sports - is it a good thing or bad thing or a little of both!
