Welcome to ML Sports! I’m the Founder of Machine Learning Sports—a 48-year-old sports enthusiast and automation fan. My interests include the TV show Good Eats, indie music, Big Five hoops, Great Value brand microwave popcorn, fitness, and any sitcom syndicated since 1991. I often find myself wishing I could have been on Pros vs. Joes or that I’d invented that little cardboard coffee-cup sleeve.
I played both NCAA football and baseball after growing up just outside of Philly. The biggest heroes of my youth were Bo Jackson, Hannibal Smith, Guru, Stewart Copeland, and of course Randall Cunningham. I do like to keep a low-profile, so the Chief Operating Officer Mike Ullberg serves as the daily leader of our support staff.
Some might say, my fondness for sports math was given direction after borrowing the book Curveball by Jim Albert and Jay Bennett from my local library and receiving one particular Christmas, a copy of Mathletics by Wayne Winston. Plus, another shoutout to Joe Peta's really excellent book Trading Bases.
