The time has come for us to pick a winner of the Mavs Moneyball Blog Off. We had some very good contestants and their time and effort is greatly appreciated. Thanks to all of you as well for helping us with this process.
Now we need all of you one more time. The field has been cut from eight down to the final three. I am applying one final poll that will close on Friday, please place your vote on who you think should be our next writer here at Mavs Moneyball.

"What do you want me to do?" Wright asked. "Do you want me to Derek Fisher him?"
"Give them some fucking credit, i mean for real." Jackson said.
"I just fell on my face for no reason," Bryant deadpanned. "I'm a klutz."
"Fucking right i'm preachin' it!" Carlisle replied.

Also
it’s too bad you were just handed the keys instead of having to be one of the options on the poll. Must be nice to have a brother in-law with that kind of sway on SBN.

's be real here
(and clean up the keyboard)
Even after another round of posts, zkmavz would likely still get the majority of votes, simply because he was entertaining has written and commented here on moneyball before. Well, that and the mobster methods he’s applying.
What we want is more content. And more facts, stats, skill and quality. We want to hear about nuances of the game, like pick-n-roll defense, advanced stats, trends, evidence of the brotherhood between Carlisle and Carey, etc. We want to be well informed. We want to have a place to drop by, chat a little and enjoy [the Mavs] everday, anyday. And we want to gain insight about the games we could not watch live.
We also want hilarous quotes, pics, videos. And we don’t want to have to work for it or even pay.
And by we, i really me Chuck’s Mom and me.

Well we have had steady
content on the site for a while now. It may not be exactly what you want, but life works that way sometimes.

THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS.
I actually don’t really want a contributor who only gives a “fan’s opinion”, since there are plenty of people here. I’d like to see a guy who does the game and statistical analysis, and then throws in some “fan” stuff around the place.
zk, I love you man, but it’d be much more awesome for you to show up with a drunken rant after the game or during the game.

statistical analysis is boring IMO
bitching and ranting about wins and losses is much more interesting. ha.

At least a guy who recounts games play-by-play.
Y’know, looks at key sections, specific plays which may have epitomized the entire game, observations on how this guy did this and that guy did that.
I’m all for bitching and ranting, but I’d prefer to see it in the comments rather than making up a frontpage post.

ditto.
I mean, I’m cool with ZK – i’m glad it went to someone who comments regularly.
But I’d like for one of the new posters to be a stats guy since so we seem to have what… 3, 4 new guys?

Guys we are currently
trying to find what each of us can do. We are formulating a strategy as we speak on who is going to handle what. Give us some time to get things squared away, it is going to be good.
