the site did update yesterday. Today we had an issue and it’s deploying now.

Anyone want to start a real award to rival the Ballon D'or that isn't just who won a trophy or two?

This is a big one. I've shared the 1978-1993 PBP that @quirkyresearch.bsky.social and I have put together over the years with Pro Football Reference. You can now find all the play-by-play back to 1978 there and in their Stathead query tool. Enjoy!

we have heard no other reports of the site not updating in a timely way and we typically get dozens when the site doesn't update. May be a caching issue with your browser.

next time you might try a hard refresh on the page to see if that fixes it.

In what way. I'm seeing this.

It's been at least half a dozen years, perhaps more than @aaronschatz.com @sean-forman.com @frantic.org and I have been talking about partnering around this. So freaking excited to announce it to the public. That's right, @pro-football-reference.com now has PxP and all sorts of new stats back to '78

That’s what TikTok and reels are for.

We’ve discovered a literal miracle with almost unlimited potential and it’s being scrapped for *no reason whatsoever*. This isn’t even nihilism, it’s outright worship of death and human suffering.

Please help us out.

I hope so. My son will be a sophomore in college next year at Pace and he's already had 10 or so magic gigs in the city.

Yes we had a build error today. I do not believe we will be able to resolve it.

Site last updated.

we also have the site update time at hte bottom of hte pages.

I just looked at the site and the boxes were updated at 4:30am today. If you see this in the future coudl you send me a screenshot?

Like how much later? The build takes longer ever day with more players and games to generate. How much of a change have you seen?

Maybe that's why he's trying to make it so fucking hot here.

Football fans buckle up because we've got something huge coming out later this week.

This Sunday, five players will be enshrined in the @baseballhall.org 🏆

Baseball Reference founder @sean-forman.com shared his approach to casting a ballot for Cooperstown.

I made it to around 2036 with Hertha Berlin.

Leyton Orient to the champions league?

I took Crewe to the champions league in one go around.

Does the game just ignore the fact that you are a 125yo football manager?

A second tulip craze.

I was saying that Fula was a mistake in 2106, and he certainly should not have been between the posts in 2110.

For the first time, we have two entries to Tier 0. The State of Analytics in MLS is here: www.americansocceranalysis.com/home/2025/7/20/state-of-mls-analytics-july-2025

Feels like there is an opportunity here to move en masse into a new player's league.
