Always wanted to redesign Basketball Reference. Nothing fancy (I can appreciate that the data is king), just clean it up a bit.

  we are in the process of doing a slight graphical upgrade to the sites in the near future to clean them up and make them more mobile friendly. stay tuned!

Do you work with the Sport-Reference.com sites? if so, would you mind if I asked you a somewhat technical question? Is there some sort of advanced query function? ------------------------------- Here's kind of what I'd like to be able to do http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/no-team-can-beat-the-draft/ http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/no-team-can-beat-the-dra... the first chart in there sort of fits a line from draft position to career AV (7 paragraphs in) I'm curious if you can hold for certain factors and move that line around specifically I'm curious if the line changes if you adjust for winning percentage of the player's college team ie if you did a curve players from schools w/ winning percentages >.750, .750 - .500, .500 - .250, .250 - 0, would that produce 4 noticeably different curves? ------------------------------------ it appears that all the data necessary to do that is contained between NFL-reference and CFB-reference the way I would think to do that is to scrape the data off the site and put it into an excel sheet to work with is that the best way to do that? or is there a function within the site that I can work with such that I don't have to scrape the data? ------------------------- thanks, sorry if this sort of question was outside the bounds of this message board
