I'm going to have to see a chart.

We live our entire lives based on math and science.

I guess when we start applying them to sports they no longer matter ?

Peters and Rivet are starting their podcast, After The Whistle, soon. For anyone who has an interest. They talk about math and science a little, but also hits and how great all the defensemen on the team are.

It was just a joke, y'all gave me a few good chuckles back reading today. That said, charts, like most things, can be altered to fit a narrative based the data that is being used or not used.

Analytics are like a lamppost to a drunk… good for support but not for illumination

Josh Allen has a 137.6 passer rating on throws 10+ yards or more. It is the best in the nfl. Just a little happy cloud stat for everyone.

Your Twitter profile picture gives me a good laugh.

I just like to laugh at the expense of the living, not joke about someone’s death

Thats odd. However I won’t cry about what makes you laugh.

I guess that’s where we’re different

If you can live with making jokes about the death of someone’s son, father, husband so be it.

I don’t need to appreciate your sense of humour.

You can joke about autism or racism or anything else but you have to leave out someones death....

My fiancé, prior to working as a RN, worked at several community living residences.

Her job was to assist all those with special needs, so no, I don’t find that funny either.

I think the point is that people are generally ok with something unless it hits home personally. Gervais talks about this a lot - he will do a joke in a certain area and he will here people complaining about that one bit but not all of the other bits that didn't hit home in their world.
