and the Winner of the Shaq Jersey is!

by Phoenix Stan on Apr 17, 2008 1:36 PM MDT in Contests

Remember our little contest to guess the statistical impact of Shaq?

Here's the numbers at the time of the trade and for the entire season (remember that there were 52 games played pre-trade and 30 after).
The "final stat" is for the entire season:

	Pre-trade Stat:	Final Stat:	Differential:	Category Winner:	Comment:
PPG	109.4	110.1	+.7	AZSEAfan	Offense got even better..
OPG	103.3	105	+1.7	calphxfan	Defense got even worse..
FG%	49.2%	50.1%	+.9%	JSun	50.1 FG%! Wow!
OFG%	45%	45.7%	+.7%	Mazzou and Brian13	45.7 Opp FG% is 13th in the league
TREB Diff	-6	-2.4	+3.6	Turumbar	This is a HUGE improvement
Win%	70.8%	66.1%	-3.7%	calphxfan	At this point its all about the next 40 games...

And the Winner with a mere .15 variance in all his guesses versus the actual results is... KidZero!

Runner up with a .2 variance is Hawk42 and in third place is your's truly at .3. That's some pretty darn good estimating if I do say so myself!
Oh, and playing the role of Miami Heat was JSun at 4.9

Thanks everyone for playing and congrats to KidZero on winning the Shaq Jersey!

End of Season Recap Contest

by Phoenix Stan on Apr 13, 2008 1:55 PM MDT in Contests

Season's almost over folks and what a year its been. In fact, it been far too exciting for just a "normal" end of season recap.

This season deserves better for all the entertainment its provided. The highs and lows and frustrations and joys.

So, we are thinking what better way to wrap it up then another contest.

Here's the rules:

1) Develop your recap of the season in any media you want. Video montage. Song. Graphical representation. Poem. Haiku. Video of a song with haiku lyrics and graphical animation. Or even regular old couple of paragraphs.

2) All entries have to be submitted via email to me at phoenixstan @ gmail dot com by midnight Phx time on April 16th.

3) Depending on the number (and quality) of your entries we will narrow the field to 3 or 5 and post them online for BSoS readers to vote.

4) Winner gets fame, adoration, glory, bragging rights and we are working on something special.

Put on your thinking caps. Fire up your Photoshops. And gin us up something creative, fun and relevant to the season.

Update [2008-4-7 18:10:25 by Phoenix Stan]:

We are pleased to offer a free Big Shaqtus shirt to the winner. Thanks to the good folks at Big Shaqtus Tees.

I don't believe that the the chest/nipple model is included in the prize package...
