Name:	Yardstick
Product URL:	http://www.thefanyard.com/about_the_yardstick
Description:	The Yardstick is FanYard's measurement of the community opinion on which team is favored to win, and by how many points. The Yardstick is calculated from individual fans' predictions of which team will win by how many points. The data from all fans predicting a particular game is aggregated, then shown as how many points the public feels the favored team will win by, as an easily understood, overall measurement of all fans' predictions on the game itself – the Yardstick. The Yardstick allows the fans and media alike to have an accurate, non-betting related view into public perception about each game.
