Who gets talked about?

  • Each box is a player, sized by comments and coloured by net sentiment
Click a team to zoom
Method
Each box is one player; its area is the comments attributed to him. Its fill is net sentiment, the positive share minus the negative, on the player rule: full heat at the season's lowest player, full ice at its highest, bone at zero, over every tracked player, so a shade means the same net in every view here and on every player page. Official keeps the players at the minimum of 5,000 comments. A team is the roster the site lists beside each name, its header summed over the boxes shown; the 7 players without a roster team at season end sit together under "No roster team" and appear only under All teams. The counts are the population's: a player too small to draw at this width is counted, not drawn.

A fanbase is the flair its commenters wear, over every player they talked about. The tick is the league average from summed counts, never a mean of rates.
