Two Links
fivethirtyeight.com is incredible. Basically, it takes the never more maligned science of polling and does cool statistical things with it using the historical accuracy of the poll, the methodology, the sample size, etc. Best of all, it's written by baseball statistician Nate Silver of Baseball Prospectus. I like anyone who can tell me why the Royals are going to lose and Obama is going to win without me understanding any of it.
Also, I don't particularly care for professional golf, but Joe Posnanski's take on Tiger Woods is, as always, a must read.
