Call For Volunteers

As part of the upcoming redesign for Beatpaths, I’m looking for people who might be interested in posting commentary on the actual front page of the site, as opposed to simply leaving comments. We’ve had a fair amount of interest here from people suggesting new methods, ways to rank the confidence of picks, etc. [...]

Salon’s Panel O’ Experts

The official announcement that Beatpaths is part of King Kaufman’s Panel O’ Experts this year…

New to the Panel this year is Curt Siffert, proprietor of Beatpaths, a Web site that does something with math and charts that I’ve spent a good seven minutes trying to figure out over the last three years, without success. But [...]

Beatpaths! Beatpaths! Beatpaths!

For those that are new visitors this year, here’s a quick description of what we’re all about.
A few years back, I was reading one of those websites that purports to power-rank sports teams based off of every single in-game stat in the book. And, being a Broncos homer, I was peeved that the Broncos [...]

Twittering About Beatpaths

Beatpaths: What’s This About?

We’re getting some increased traffic (clicking my ads will help btw!), so I thought I’d take the opportunity to explain a couple of things regarding what this site is about. I’ve written about it elsewhere, but more’s always better!
A beatpath graph is a graphical representation of all of the games/matches in a season. [...]

2006 Beatpaths Strategy

Thanks for all the comments and suggestions from the previous entry. I’m also relieved that people are still reading since I put the site on hiatus in the off-season. The system is still applicable to the other sports, but I still have some work to do to make it more automated, and right [...]

NFL 2006 Preparation

Beatpaths was really fun during the entire 2005 NFL Season, but there’s been one niggling issue that I’ve been trying to figure out how to address for the start of the 2006 NFL Season.
The beatpaths graphs don’t really make a lot of sense until each team has a few games under their belts so you [...]
