Green Bay, Wisconsin, home to just over 100,000 people is the smallest market in any major sports league in the United States. Dubbed in the mid-sixties as “Title town, USA”, Green Bay is the proud home of the National Football League’s Green Bay Packers. Such a small town allows for many unique experiences. Only in Green Bay will you see a professional football player riding the bike of a six-year-old to the Clark Hinkle practice field. The team’s helmet is also present on the official city flag, along with a wedge of cheese, a roll of paper and a ship. Such a small town and a big name franchise once purchased for 250 dollars is now worth over 125 million. A big name franchise started from humble beginnings, a conversation between two men, and a drive for excellence.…

The New York Giants are a professional football team, located in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The Giants have been around since 1925, and have become a well-known organization and one that other teams look to emulate. The Giants play their home games at MetLife Stadium which was just built in 2010. The Giants are a part of my life, everyday conversation, looking up breaking news, who they are interested in taking in this year’s draft. It’s something I can share with my Dad, a fellow Giants fan, and many of my close friends. This team keeps us talking for hours as if we were on the field or in the locker room with them. There’s nothing better than waiting around all week to watch this team play on Sunday’s.…

In just seven seasons Bumgarner has become one of the best lefties to ever take the mound in the big leagues. He is 95-63 with 2.94 ERA. Those numbers prove he's an amazing pitcher and is constantly baffling hitters.…

In 1961 Dodger Stadium was supposed to open but lawsuits and landslides pushed back the construction by a year. Los Angeles Dodgers played there very first at the new Dodger Stadium against the Cincinnati Reds on April 10, 1962. Before moving to Anaheim in 1966, the L.A Angels played at the Dodger Stadium for three seasons.…

Governed internationally by the International Baseball Federation (IBAF), Baseball is an offense/defense bat-and-ball team sport. Baseball, like softball, is unlike most other competitive sports in that the defense is given control of the ball.

Big data is the latest buzzword in the tech industry, but what exactly makes it different from traditional BI or data analysis?
