Author Ted Kluck found, online, a community of computer nerds and football enthusiasts so rooted in the past and so uninterested in the future that they have created algorithms and computer software that can accurately simulate football games, seasons, and careers using fields of data that already exist on the thousands of players who have suited up in the National Football League. In this book, part memoir and part Bill-Jamesian exploration into football nerdery, The Odyssey Online Football league takes the author-a jaded journalist, a lifelong football player, and a burned-out coach-through a year immersed in the late 1970s, in hopes of rekindling his love for the game. Past Time is an homage to football's past, and a meditation on its present and future.
