Ep 81 | Greatest NFL teams perform with their unique attributes in data-driven Breakaway Football
<p>Breakaway Football is one of the more unique entrants into the world of #tabletopfootball games: stats-based yet card-driven, data-rich yet colorful and accessible. </p> <p>Not only that, but this game thusfar is based on replicating the key attributes of some of the most iconic teams in history, from 1958 to the present – hence, beginning with normalizing stats across eras. Given alternate names and logos in deference to potential licensing issues, these teams are given unique qualities, like random Bum Rap bad-luck outcomes for the representation of the 1980 Oilers. Your Saints become the Sinners, Packers the Stackers, Steelers the Blacksmiths, Buccaneers the Privateeers, etc.</p> <p>And, the just-released Team Creator lets Breakaway Football fans create teams of their own.</p> <p>Arthur Franz IV walks us through some of the most important game functions and the thought process that led to them (hint: he watched a LOT of game film to determine how, for instance, the 1978 Cowboys [“the Horsemen”] used and profited from the then-rare shotgun formation). Notably, Arthur has coached football at several levels, starting right out of high school, which adds to his perspective on translating the action on the field to the tabletop.</p> <p>Arthur and the rest of the Breakaway Football design team will join us for the first time ever at our third cards-and-dice football event at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton on Aug. 24-25.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Buy Breakaway Football:</p> <p>https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/breakaway-football<br></p> <p>Breakaway Football group on Facebook:</p> <p>https://www.facebook.com/groups/244866002738026</p> <p><br></p> <p>Uplink Underground Games:</p> <p>https://uplinkunderground.com</p> <p><br></p> <p>#football #nfl #footballgame #footballgames #footballhistory #nflhistory #tabletopsports</p>

We conducted this interview right at the entrance to the exhibits because the playoffs were going on in the learning center and we had to choose the lesser of two evils in terms of background sound. I might attempt to filter the background noise on this later, but for now let this suffice.

Ep 79 | Data kings: Sports Info Solutions informs how the big leagues, game companies do business – and busts the Derek Jeter myth
<p>Sports Info Solutions is one of the foremost players in the game of big data and how it informs not only the game on the field of play but on the tabletop. Mark Simon, content lead for SIS, is a former newspaperman, ESPN staffer and one-time Strat-O-Matic player who run the SIS baseball podcast. Mark shares with us some of the intricate workings of acquiring big-league sports data and the critical job of the SIS video scouts – not a few of whom have gone on to careers with major league teams like the Rays, Orioles and Twins. It is the keen eyes of the SIS video scouts that glean reams of advanced playing data from broadcast after broadcast. PT Games recently signed an agreement to use SIS data to inform its PC-based football game — and Mark shares his work with SOM on a recent MLB article simulation project, as well as his gaming history with Strat, MicroLeague and Diamond Mind. Mark is also a huge fan of Keith Hernandez and strongly supports Keith's entry into the <a href="https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCqZkk0G1C5w1E1CTVVzqLFA"> @baseballhall </a>.
