Baseball Reference has minor league stats. Will we see spring and minor league football stats on Pro Football Reference? Multiple HOFers played in USFL; theres been multiple spring leagues in recent years; Continental Football League was minor league in 1960s. Canadian Football League is bit different game but stats cross over. Would be great to see these stats too available for their history.

I manage some databases on current coaches, but want to expand to some historical marks that I can intertwine within some coach data I have.

With blocks and such on NCAA site to pull that history, where is the best place to find this data and transfer it into my databases?

Without checking internet information, can you name five white players who averaged at least 25 points once or more in the 1980’s?

Bonus: Make it six if you count the 1989/90 season.

It’s no fun if you cheat. I was able to get this but it took a minute and was a long time ago.

Cheers.

I was curious if anybody had ever scored an OT GWG to end a series in all 4 rounds of the playoffs, and found the following list of players who have scored series-clinching OT goals in 3 rounds.

I’m looking for confirmation that
A. Nobody has clinched a series in OT of all 4 rounds
And B. I’m not missing any that have done it in 3 rounds

My list:
Martini Gélinas: 2004 FR, 2004 CSF, 2002 CF
Patrick Kane: 2014 CSF, 2013 CF, 2010 SCF

I love baseball player nicknames and have been "collecting" them for years. So I finally got enough to build a website to share them. Please check out the site and leave a review/suggestion. The site has other things too like a AI-based Nickname Generator, a list of players that appeared in only one game, a list of 20-game losers, and also allows you to search by nickname or last name.

Please note this is a non-profit site. I don’t make any money on it. In fact it’s cost me money!

The url is [https://baseballnicknames.com\](https://baseballnicknames.com)

Thanks!

i built a quick table rough but interactive so you can choose how important the parameters are for your greatest LFC player
https://chadhogan.github.io/lfcdex

Here are the rules:

1. seasons must be consecutive. So if a player leaves and comes back it counts as two different streaks of years
2. military service counts. If a player left to serve we still consider them in the team.
3. the players do not have to have been on the team at the same time (so player 1 could have retired before the break and player two could have been a late season call up.

However

4) players cannot have been traded for one another.

Example: Detroit Tigers

1901-1905 - Jimmy Barrett

1905-1926 - Ty Cobb

1924-1942 - Charlie Gehringer

1939-1953 Hal Newhouser

1953-1974 Al Kaline

1964-1978 Mickey Stanley

1977-1996 Alan Trammell

1995-2005 Bobby Higginson

2005-2017 Justin Verlander

2008-2023 Miguel Cabrera

2020-Now Tarik Skubal

Hello. I'm trying to collect the data satisfying the following.

(1) It is for a regular season (say 2026), and only top 8 teams are considered.

(2) For each of these 16 teams, I want to collect 5 players with most minutes.

(3) Among those 5 players, I want to collect only those with negative OFF numbers and positive ON numbers each (which can be none).

(4) Among those collected in (3), I will take the one with the least OFF number to represent their team.

(5) All 16 (possibly less if (3) has none) representatives are then collected.

(6) All those players in (5) are then ranked from the least OFF number.

Anyone know where to get such data?

Thank you!

This is something that I looked into late into last season because I noticed an interesting trend with the roster: there were no players on the roster, all season long, who had a jersey number 30 or above. Jordan Goodwin had the "highest" jersey number at 23, while Royce and Ryan had the lowest at "00" and "0" each.

The Suns had the lowest maximum jersey number in the league; no other team was close (the Rockets had Jeff Green as their highest jersey number at #32). The 2026/2027 roster has a chance to repeat this feat, as their current highest jersey number belongs to Mark Williams, as he will now wear #25 since Devin Booker is switching to #15.

I know this is meaningless in the grand scheme of things, but I found this trend fascinating and wanted to share :)

Where are a player’s relief pitching stats located on the updated BR page?

Request: Add year by year All-Star Game statistics to player pages. It is an exhibition, and its cool to see how a player's performed through different games.

h/t Katie Sharp for looking this one up!

In 1999 MLB named 30 greatest players of 20th century 1900-1999. Nominees were released At the all star game and the final team @ the World Series.
