Sabermetrics archive on FanHome

The sabermetrics board lost a lot of functionality under Scout. Because of the lack of unification between boards and Membership-by-Approval, it was impossible to conduct cross-site surveys of the sort that tango undertook. Additionally, since EZB deleted posts after a period that made archival a challenge.

It was once requested of me that FanHome house an archive of sabermetrics content. That is now readily possible and I would be happy to work with anyone who wishes to make sure that the content posted on this board will have staying power.

Additionally, it is worth noting that the content which is still on Scout prior to November 14th is to be 'shared property' of Scout and FanHome. Members are welcome to essentially go, retrieve their threads and post them on FanHome

Kevin, what about everything that was posted on the OLD fanhome? Is that still around somewhere?
