Greetings GFOPs (and others who have clicked on this post)! There were a few mentions on social media that I’d be publishing two blogs here this afternoon. The first was going to be a high-level, layman’s explanation for how the Premier League Mood Table I did for Men In Blazers (b|t) works and the second was going to be a deep dive into the nuts and bolts of how I built it, the mistakes I made, the ways I fixed those mistakes, and just how flipping cool Azure Logic Apps and Social Sentiment Analysis are. That second blog will form the foundation for a SQL Saturday/conference talk I intend to submit and present throughout 2018 (feel free to contact me if this interests you and your user group/conference/organization).
These blogs were originally timed with the 12/1 release of MIB’s latest Raven (their newsletter for readers who don’t listen to their podcast – register here if you’re not a subscriber) containing an interview with me, thus the handful of tweets and other social posts mentioning today as the day to take a look at my site.
Unfortunately, in typically suboptimal MIB fashion, the 12/1 Raven has been delayed until 12/8, thus Mauricio Pochettino (and I) make the sad face above. My blogs will be released in conjunction with that Raven, so we’ll see you back here next Friday. If you’re interested in soccer and/or data and/or social media analysis potentially relevant to your company, it will be worth a read. Have a great weekend and see you back here Friday, December 8!
