Bob Ngo.com: Sociology Dissertation on Sabermetrics

A bloke named Bob Ngo is doing a dissertation on sabermetrics as a cultural phenomenon.  For his research, he’s put out a call (which he repeated in a recent forum post - and no, I’m not linking to the forum post) to interview 20-30 statheads. 

If you are interested in being interviewed, there are a few options

  1. I will be attending the SABR conference in St. Louis this summer.  I plan on conducting as many interviews as I can during this time.  If you plan on attending, you can contact me and we can schedule a time for you to be interviewed
  2. If you live in Southern or Central California, you can contact me and we can arrange an in-person interview.
  3. If neither of the two above options work, I can interview you on the phone.

If you are interested in being interviewed, or if you know anyone who wants to be interviewed, please contact me!

As if any of youz needed another reason to go to St. Louis.

Aside from his main site, he also has a blog dedicated to his dissertation.  Speaking as a sample size of one, this sounds pretty frickin’ cool.
