That site is garbage, and I wish people would stop buying into it.

All he does is coin-flip all remaining games millions of times, and spits that out as his 'odds'. It's total bullshit, and doesn't mean anything.

I don't know, Squanto. Seems pretty bulletproof to me.

Then, no offense, you don't know anything about statistics.

You cannot predict the outcome of a sporting event by flipping a coin, no matter how many times you do it.

Then, no offense, you know nothing about message board sarcasm. ;)

"remaining outcomes based on relative team strengths."

Not sure what he means by that though. I assume a projection of wins/losses based on how they've fared against those teams this year, but I really have no idea.

I don't know. I thought the whole figuring out the percentages of what place we could get based off of each and every record we could get was pretty cool. Other than that, I didn't find anything on the site interesting.

I did that in 07-08, I projected how we would do in our remaining games based on how we'd played against those teams. I came up with us missing the playoffs with 89 pts. I think we ended up with 91. :/
