A great site where you can match up teams from the past in any sport you want, and a simulation is run (takes just a few seconds) to come up with a winner.

I ran a simulation of the 2002 Tampa Bay Bucs vs. the 1985 Chicago Bears at Tampa Bay with no precipitation and 70 degrees:

32-6 Bucs
10-7 Bears
19-11 Bucs
6-0 Bucs
16-3 Bears

And at Chicago with no precipitation and 50 degrees:

3-0 Bears
9-6 Bears
9-3 Bears
10-6 Bucs
9-6 Bears

Full boxscores are available, with tons of detail. Very entertaining (to me at least).

I'd love to see the algorithm of how that works. Awesome find!

Great find - you can probably waste a lot of time on that site!

I just did one, but very cool: 2004 Red Sox vs. 1978 Yankees (at Yankee Stadium)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Boston 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 1 5 8 13 0
New York 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 7 0

Nice!

I wasted about an hour today at work on it


Great fun...love to see how playing with weather conditions affected the outcome on the football games.

Forgot the link!
