What I'd really like to do as a next step is to identify a Linked Open Data advocate who happens to watch a lot of one of the sports for which more data is becoming available, and then encourage that person to get in touch with one of the stats-oriented communities within that sport to help make these stats available as a SPARQL endpoint. If it was soccer, Uche would be an obvious candidate, but judging by http://www.sportsstandards.org/oc the NHL, NFL, or MLB seem to be the best places to start. At the next Boston/Cambridge/semweb/LOD meetup, I suggest you keep you eye out for Red Sox, Bruins, or Pats-themed clothing... Bob
