@PoseidonsFist if you're going to use stats you might as well use the ones that best fit the job & it seems that he doesn't understand that 4:37 PM May 29th via TweetDeck in reply to PoseidonsFist
@PoseidonsFist but for what he's using it to talk about, what he expects to happen, it is the wrong tool for the job... 4:37 PM May 29th via TweetDeck in reply to PoseidonsFist
@PoseidonsFist I'm a beat writers perspective I can understand his use of traditional stat because they tell you what happened in a game... 4:36 PM May 29th via TweetDeck in reply to PoseidonsFist
The stats Hank is talking about tell the story of what happened but have little repeatable predictive value. That's why they are silly. 4:32 PM May 29th via TweetDeck
