The bizarre thing about this site is that it has totally robbo-written basketball analysis. The statistics are fed in and a software program writes and tailors the narrative analysis based upon the staistics fed into the computer. I am not so certain that it is a good idea to eliminate the human genius, creativity, and bias from sports writing.

It sure is efficient though. Certainly reduces the number of employees. And, I believe they report that they have like 345 sites for each Division I school up and running. The stories, recaps of past games, updates, and previews of future games are all written by story writing software. The developer says he believes that 80% of the people never question that this is all artificially created.
