dEnnis the Menace Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 Please don't. We don't want the board getting into trouble for hosting material that is copyrighted. agreed. a brief summary wouldn't be bad though.
IKnowPhysics Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 I'm not afraid. If someone has it and wants to share, they can PM the text to me.

MattPie Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 ??? I think they think this is baseball or some other sport that can reasonably broken down into numbers.
Andrew Amerk Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 nothing spectacular they think that using the VUKOTA statistics?????? of Hockey prospectus that Miller is set to have a good year with a 13.7 GVT and vanek is going to go down to an 11.4 GVT and they say look out for luke adam WHATTTTT! That is pure insanity!!!
spndnchz Posted August 17, 2011 Report Posted August 17, 2011 GVT explained. You know I like stats and numbers but this is definitely some "make myself sleepy before bed" material. http://www.puckprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=233
repster Posted August 18, 2011 Author Report Posted August 18, 2011 Thanks for the lowdown. I figured in mid-August it would probably be a waste of time. I'm just kind of getting antsy for something hockey - like the TV sked or some early predictions. Too much [OT] stuff right now.

SDS Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 Just wondering what this article says. Can anyone help out with a copy and paste? Yeah, please don't make these requests. If you want to read it - pay for it. It is ESPN's right to charge for their content and we should respect that.
FolignosJock Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 Yeah, please don't make these requests. If you want to read it - pay for it.

SDS Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 SDS you mind me posting a very undetailed review? or should i leave that out next time as well? I can't control people talking about things they have read, but the copy/paste thing wouldn't be right.
FolignosJock Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 I can't control people talking about things they have read, but the copy/paste thing wouldn't be right. Understood
MattPie Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 I can't control people talking about things they have read, but the copy/paste thing wouldn't be right. Right, unless ESPN Insider requires the user to sign an NDA (:)), it can be talked about or even small parts quoted under fair use (as far as I know).
repster Posted August 18, 2011 Author Report Posted August 18, 2011 Copyright issues (I'm guessing?) didn't cross my mind when I made the request. If this is the case and could get someone like SDS in trouble, my mistake and I will refrain from a similar ask in the future.
waldo Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 Copyright issues (I'm guessing?) didn't cross my mind when I made the request. If this is the case and could get someone like SDS in trouble, my mistake and I will refrain from a similar ask in the future. For the record: In this case there are no legal issues of concern related to the reading of a copyrighted espn insider article and the subsequent discussion of its contents here. Reprinting the article verbatim without permission and selling it for profit could prove to be problematic if it happens to be a slow week in the ESPN legal department.Anything short of that , you are ok. Seems like there are many, many silly rabbits here . Your instincts in the first instance were correct. Would you like me to summarize the article and post my thoughts?

I am the insider subscriber in these parts if you would like to duel me for that right then fine... but until then keep your insider status to yourself
nobody Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 dont steal my thunder it has been done. I am the insider subscriber in these parts if you would like to duel me for that right then fine... but until then keep your insider status to yourself Maybe you and waldo should get together to do reviews of the insider articles - like the at the movies show - then you can post your opinions. You could turn it into a blog and then you could get invited to the Sabres blog summit.
waldo Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 dont steal my thunder it has been done. I am the insider subscriber in these parts if you would like to duel me for that right then fine... but until then keep your insider status to yourself :worthy: :worthy: :worthy: :D
Weave Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 LOL After all this noone is going to summarize. :doh:
spndnchz Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 LOL After all this noone is going to summarize. :doh: It's a bunch of crap written to sell a book by guys 1) do it for baseball where it may actually work 2) by ESPN, who gives soooo much airtime to hockey.
FolignosJock Posted August 22, 2011 Report Posted August 22, 2011 LOL After all this noone is going to summarize. :doh: I did summarize earlier its entirely unimportant about some crazy stat they made up
