Best For: Those who want to review each team's season-long performance

Most Active: Year-round
Best For: Those who've an interest in statistical modelling
Content: Mostly projections of which teams will make the Finals (though occasionally other things are simulated)

Best For: Those who've an interest in statistical simulation
If you're a first-time visitor to the site and are mainly interested in the Wagers and Tips material, this post from early 2016 gives a good overview of how and what predictions are made here on MoS. You can also find an introduction to the Team Rating Systems used on MoS in this post, also from early 2016.
The Navigation Bar on the right of the screen provides access to other content on the site, including the Probability and Statistics blog, where I talk about more general statistical topics, and MoS' Historical Archives, which houses the newsletters and associated files from the early years of MoS (when it was called MAFL).
You'll also find a range of Search options in the Navigation Bar that will help you locate content by keyword, category or tag.
Lastly, if you'd like to be notified whenever new content appears on the site, there's a facility at the top of the Navigation Bar that lets you subscribe via e-mail (just click on the envelope). I hate spam as much as I'm fairly sure you do, so I'll certainly never share your e-mail address with anybody else.
