This is pretty interesting and fun data. The article talks a lot about what games are exciting and it basis this off of wild fluctuations in a team's chances of winning. This makes perfect sense, but there is more to it than that. If there are two teams playing each other and the score is 43-36 with plenty of ups and downs along the way, is it an exciting game? Sure sounds like it. What if those two teams are the Browns and Dolphins playing in a meaningless game in December with two backup quarterbacks? Is that game still exciting? These things are hard to quantify because the algorithm needs to put things into context that it may not be able to understand.
