I’ve got some bad news for you. No one is eating crow.

It's like that in real life as well.  Just imho, I rather enjoy being proven wrong.  Admitting one's mistakes is a great way to learn.

I think it is fairly obvious that a good record beats a bad record, but thank you for bringing that to the court's attention.

But if you want to determine how well a team is playing Py W/L is a better descriptor than record.  I could show you some numbers, but I doubt you'd look at them.

Who was it who said you are what your record says you are? I would rather have a better record, and playing bad than a bad record when SOMETHING says you’re playing better. I could care less how well a team is supposedly playing if their record doesn’t match it, so you’re right i wouldn’t look at any numbers outside of a W-L record.
