Show HN: Game Smarts – Share your sports smarts
gamesmarts.coIf what you are building has a credibility and validity engine built into it (versus just crowdsourced upvoting), this could be a valuable tool for gamblers and fantasy sports fans.
What was interesting to me was that I thought this was where higher level players could share insights on the general sport strategy.
For example, I would love to know how football teams identify the "Mike" and how defenses and offenses are read for audibles.
I've heard people say pocket passers read defenses from the outside in and running quarterbacks read from the inside out.
If I was a defensive coordinator, it would be good to know what an expert does in each of those situations.
Yep, that's my target audience: gamblers and those that play fantasy sports or are in pickem pools. I've thought about how to add credibility to submissions but decided to leave that out for now.
I really like the clean design, and the fact that there doesn't seem to be a strong gender orientation. Just neutral, organized data.
My first app written in Ember.js.
I've always wanted a place you could go to get short pieces of information about teams in a specific matchup so this is my attempt at creating that.
I would love to hear your feedback. Thanks!
