SportsMyriad’s 2011 plans

So you’ve opened all the presents and thought, “Well, that’s nice, but what I really want is to know what SportsMyriad is planning in 2011. We’ve seen nine months of erratic updates and programming. What now?”

Basically, you’re going to see three big content initiatives:

1. 2012 medal projections. The goal is to be FiveThirtyEight.com for Olympic sports, though Nate Silver is a brilliant stats wizard and my last big mathematically hurrah was AP Calculus, all of which I’ve forgotten.

2. MLS team guides. A mix of facts and subjective analysis (or idiotic opinion, depending on what you think of it) for all 16 teams. I mean 18. 19? Anyway — look for that in March.

3. More MMA. Expect The Ultimate Fighter recaps to continue through Season 13, along with some other occasional content. My next book will be on MMA, and I expect to keep writing on a free-lance basis here and there.

And I’ll have occasional posts on this and that, mostly as time and info permit.

  1. fivethirtyeight.com is setting the bar as high as it can be set – but then if you’re projecting the Olympics, a high bar (pole vault, high jump) is appropriate!
