Welcome to StatsCenter! This fun, educational parody of SportsCenter covers many major topics in the field of statistics, in a sleek and funny sports anchor format. In this intro, we outline what our purpose is: understanding the field of statistics, which is about the study of data and how to interpret it, to create a better understanding of our world. In this case, the amazing sports world! Also introducing my in-field partner in the game, Jordan Cohen, who attempts to share his love of sports in a blooper-laden pioneering episode.

Over the course of the series get ready for impersonations of ELEVEN call-in celebrity “guests,” including Stephen Curry, Lebron James, David Beckham, Charles Barkley, John Madden, Mike Tyson, Peyton Manning, Stephen A. Smith, Billy Beane, and Mike Breen!

lol I wish you where my math teacherXD

[dwong]

I kind of wish that your statistic videos were more similar to the algebra ones. The Algebra videos take place in a classroom setting which allows your students to ask questions, the same questions your viewers have. I also find it hard to compare how you're explaining statistics to other data sets other than sports.
