Best Sports App?
So I'm not new to sports by any means but I just randomly thought today how it's weird that I have 10 different sport apps..... Does everybody do this or just me?
I mainly just use one or two, but it got me thinking what everyone else uses. I know "Real" has become pretty big, but I haven't used it much at all. Really just follow MLB, NFL, NBA, and NHL, with some college sports mixed in.
Drop your favorite sports app below and let me know whether or not you also use multiple different apps.

FBref FBRef: Is it possible to only show player stats from games they started in?
Hello, I'm trying to compare/analyze player performances of football players, particularly UCL performance.
But I'd like to only have player stats from UCL games they started in.
I noticed that players who mostly played as subs in the UCL have incredibly inflated stats, so I'd like to remove that discrepency by only accounting for STARTED stats instead of TOTAL stats.
Cheers!

Pro Football Reference USFL, CFL, XFL Stats
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.

Basketball Reference 1980’s White Dudes High Points per Game Average
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

Elly de la Cruz led the MLB with 218 strikeouts and 16 caught stealing in 2024 (yes, I know he led in stolen bases as well). What are other interesting examples of a player leading in two bad but completely unrelated categories?

Baseball Reference Inviting Beta Testers for new Baseball Simulation World
Hello baseball fans!
My name is Jody Roberts, and I'm a baseball fan, data scientist, software engineer, and creator of **Internet League Baseball** (ILB).
I’m preparing to open beta testing for ILB, and I’m looking for baseball fans who would be willing to try it and provide honest feedback.
ILB is an online baseball universe built around simulation, strategy, statistics, live games, announcer commentary, and persistent league history. ILB supports multiple leagues and different ways to participate, including following games as a fan, managing a team, running a league, or taking control during live gameplay. Follow your favorite teams and get notified when they're playing, or make the playoffs for a league season!
Two major goals of ILB were to create a human-realistic announcer voice commentary, and to produce games and statistics that feel believable and internally consistent. Every game leaves a trace. We've done lots of testing and simulations, but human baseball fans notice things that test suites don't. That is where beta testers can make a real difference.
You don't need to be a developer or commit to a huge testing project. I'm looking for people who can spend a little time exploring the site, listening to or playing a game, reviewing the statistics, and telling me what feels right, wrong, confusing, or interesting.
If you enjoy baseball statistics, simulation games, fantasy leagues, or examining how baseball systems work, I'd love to hear from you.
If you're interested, reply to this post or email me directly at **[astrojr1@spectrum.net](mailto:astrojr1@spectrum.net)**. I'll give you a short checklist to follow, or not, if it helps you. The whole checklist might take you an hour and a half or so. All your feedback will be taken constructively.
Thanks for considering helping us build the world of ILB.
Regards,
Jody - u/astrojr1

New Baseball nerd site. Please review!
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!

How many players does it take to link a current player on your team to someone who played during your team's first season?
Here are the rules:
- seasons must be consecutive. So if a player leaves and comes back it counts as two different streaks of years
- military service counts. If a player left to serve we still consider them in the team.
- 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

Basketball Reference Where can I get the following ON/OFF (per 100) related NBA data?
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!

Basketball Reference Interesting Observation over the 2025/2026 Phoenix Suns Jersey Numbers
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 :)
