[NU Sports] List Statistics

I would suggest that Fitz recruiting efforts and Persa's injury had something to do with
the increase in traffic last 2 years. 

AND there seems to be more news stories in the Chicago papers now - more conversation
starters, and more things to have an opinion on as the Cats finally became Chicago's Team.

Waiting patiently for the 2012-13 Football season to get here, I came up with some stats
(thanks to Mikes list archive)

Football (I typically assumed a 5 month window, August-December)

04-05   6-6 no bowl      228 list posts per month
05-06   7-5 Sun Bowl   339 list posts per month
06-07   4-8 no bowl      257 list posts per month
07-08   6-6 no bowl      260 list posts per month
08-09   9-4 Alamo Bowl   320 list posts per month
09-10   8-5 Outback Bowl   309 list posts per month
10-11   7-6 Ticket Bowl   350 list posts per month
11-12   6-7 Texas Bowl   427 list posts per month

That's 87% growth over 7 years.

Basketball (I used a 3 month window, January-March.  In many cases, January posts were a
mix of Bowl talk and Basketball talk)

04-05   15-16    8th   nothing    58 list posts per month
05-06   14-15    8th   nothing   189 list posts per month
06-07   13-18   10th  nothing    188 list posts per month
07-08   8-22     11th  nothing    111 list posts per month
08-09   17-14     9th  NIT rd 1    269 list posts per month
09-10   20-14     7th  NIT rd 1    304 list posts per month
10-11   20-13     8th  NIT quarters   210 list posts per month
11-12   19-14     7th  NIT rd 2     388 list posts per month

Off Season (I went with 4 months, April-July.  Womens Lacrosse was battling for the
National title in each of these years)

05    61 list posts per month
06   141 list posts per month (RW passed on 6/29, which led to much list traffic)
07    76 list posts per month
08    51 list posts per month
09    66 list posts per month
10   125 list posts per month
11   103 list posts per month

I am not quite sure what accounts for higher list traffic in 2010 and 2011.  I will have
to read further.
Certainly the list appears to be very healthy, especially during football season.
