Well, I'll chip in. Out of all the things that have been done with Win Shares this offseason, I think this is the best, most appropriate and creative use of them. Note that he's not using Win Shares to make a case for a player in particular (though he could) but he's using them to spotlight trends in voting.
I love a couple of those summary tables that clearly show how that Hall has gotten stingier in recent times.
Just a nice job all around. Mike's site doesn't get enough attention.

I agree. I dislike Win Shares and cringe at most of their use in general (sorry studes) but found this use appropriate, clear, and educational.
