Bloops: Sports-Reference Named to TIME’s 50 Best Websites
Posted by Neil Paine on August 25, 2010
OK, I've gotta toot our own vuvuzela for a second here: I just found out that the Sports-Reference family of sites has been named to TIME Magazine's list of the 50 Best Websites for 2010! It's a great honor for us, and a thrill to know that our users get so much enjoyment & utility out of the sites. Here's to being your favorite sports stats destination for many years to come...

Pretty cool, and I was glad to see it. But the rankings were a sham for one reason: Sporcle isn't a top 5 Games website??

This is such a wonderful website, and that's based only on my familiarity with your baseball stuff! Congratulations! I have made some forays into your NBA section and will probably spend some time in the NFL section before long, too.

Congrats guys! Nice to see the site get some of the accolades it deserves.

Congrats guys, some well deserved recognition.
I have to agree with Nate @1, how does Sporcle not make the games list? Heck, Sporcle should be top 5 in the education list too.

A most deserving honor, Sean.
