ESPN Sportsnation

One of the best features ESPN.com has besides, Bill Simmons and Streak for the Cash, is ESPN Sportsnation

Everyday a dozen or so polls are taken on some relevant sports questions. The picture above is from a poll last night. 

I love ESPN Sportsnation because it gives such great perspective. Not only are there 20,000+ people voting in these polls, but the poll is broken down to how people in all 50 states (plus Washington D.C.) voted. 

Taking a research class right now, I realize that these polls are drawn with a sampling frame bias. But, ESPN brings the greatest sports fans in the United States together. And, somehow the U.S. map results never surprise me. Take some time to look at the results from last nights poll.
