I figure I'd start one up, similar to the MLB thread I set up. Pick the games, get points and bragging rights. Wild Card Round - 1 Point/Game Divisional Round - 3 Points/Game Conference Championship Round - 5 Points Super Bowl XLII - 10 Points Tiebreaker - Score of SB XLII Picks for Wild Card Weekend are locked at kickoff of Game 1. The Match-ups: NFC: WAS @ SEA NYG @ TB AFC: JAX @ PIT TEN @ SD

Beautiful throw from Collins to Moss. Looks like WAS will be in the playoffs. I love sports.

From the article in the OP: I wonder if she was wearing her seatbelt... -
You misunderstand. I'm sure the data itself is relevant, however eliminating 40% of the sample makes me call the analysis into question.
-
E1, you know I have no beef with you. One liners are how I roll.

Nice qualifier, "compared to other lefties". If people threw underhand, softball style, but only maxed out at 60 MPH, would someone who threw 65 be a hard thrower?
-
I'll make this concession. He throws among the hardest of left-handers, however he's far from being considered a hard throwing lefty. Happy?
-
Did you watch the damn games last season? This argument is foolish. It's about semantics. I don't consider 91, 92 to be a hard thrower just as much as you don't believe leaving 40% of the sample size out of data makes it any less relevant.
-
Why, all of a sudden, has the burden of proof shifted to me once the validity of the data you have used comes into question? It's disappointing you try to convince people of things and do not back them up with relevant data in this instance. You say that 431 pitches, or 39.7% of the sample, does not skew the data at all. I guess there's nothing I can say to that which will convince you otherwise that the data is not reliable. I'm sorry, I cannot classify anyone who sits at 91 a hard thrower, lefty or righty.
-
You're saying leaving 40+% out of a sample makes it less significant??
-
http://www.baseball-reference.com/pi/gl.cgi?n1=lestejo01&t=p&year=2007 rsr has a point. There's more pitches that Lester threw that are not within the sample you provided, E1. Can't really look at that data seriously, can we?

I wouldn't call Lester a hard throwing lefty.

Anyone watching the ASU/Texas game right now? Unreal turn of events... 3rd and 11 on the Texas 14, down 21-0, ASU's QB gets hit, throws a backwards pass, and bounces towards the Texas sidelines. Upon first glance, it seemed Texas recovered and ran it back in to ASU territory. But upon review, a Texas manager touched the ball in play, resulting in an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty against Texas. Half the distance to the goal, ASU has 4th and 3 on the 7, and scores on the next play. ASU makes Texas go three and out, and are now driving for another score. Instead of a possible 28-0 Texas lead, ASU is right back in the football game. Unbelievable. And as I type, the ASU QB overthrows a wide open receiver on 4th and 2.

What difference does that make? The investment is risky, putting $20 million per into a pitcher. I personally happen to think it'd be worth it but if something happens to the guy it's Pavano redux. Even if "money is no object", the investment carries a lot of risk and should be considered.

Go back to sitting on your high horse.
