You can dish it out, but you can’t take it, and if someone takes it wrong, it’s a “joke.” I wish I had a nickle for every new poster who’s throat you’ve jumped down, I’d have at least a sawbuck.
And as I said, we wonder why there’s so much sunshine around here.

you're weird.
we make a joke every time SSH declares a game ova. it’s one of the things he does, along with providing us cubdates, relaying news about players we thought were long since retired, and concocting lineups.

perhaps start your own website where stats and probabilities and signability issues and ops don't exist?

by MarketMaker on Jun 19, 2008 3:47 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Huh?
So, as I said, they’re applied only to the players on the field? SSH can say the game is over with a lefty we haven’t seen throwing junk, and he’s right (Cub fan or no) 90% of the time, but an exception comes along, and someone calls him out on it….why?
That’s like me pointing to one case last year where the bullpen didn’t suck to prove stats are worthless.
Anyone else care to make regular bets on this offense coming back from 6 down in this situation?

i like how two games against the pirates is a small sample size
but three games against the rockies is more than enough for him to continue beating this one into the ground. i think this may actually be a schizophrenic SSH posting.

Hey, I wasn't the one around here who coined the term "Sonnanstined"
by madopal on Jun 19, 2008 4:14 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
i think you missed the point of that
the term is meant to be used when a mediocre or at least unaccomplished pitcher comes out of nowhere to dominate for one specific night against the sox. its really to disregard it as a small sample size, an anomaly, a bad night. or at least thats what i always thought.

Cubs game tonight sb over at about 10, maybe an 11:30 flight,
they’ll get in around 2, be home around 3. Then off to Wrigley for a 1:20 game.
Well we can hope for a few extra innings down in Tampa so the Cubs can go right from the airport to the park.
Pitching, defense, health.

Yeah, subtract an hour from all tomes for CDT.
Need a few more extras, or like a 25 – 22 game.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

vs. Sean Gallagher...
This could be the first time the Cubs lose three in a row this season.

Even so
Sox median runs scored = 4. Bad guys = 3.
by tommyjoepeters on Jun 19, 2008 4:22 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
is this accurate, or a guess?
if the former, where are you getting your numbers from if you don’t mind me asking. and before you answer excel; where are you sourcing the data?
by explodingpinwheelsforfunandprofit on Jun 19, 2008 4:25 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
Thanks for asking
Believe it or not, that included the Baltimore suspended game.
When you kick out that game, it’s Sox=5, Oppo=3.

Source
been keeping scores in an excel sheet for every game for AL competitors (all central exc KC, BOS, NY, LAA, OAK) since ‘05.
Except last year, when the season ended in June.
by tommyjoepeters on Jun 19, 2008 4:37 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
but he said you can't answer excel.
now go back and recount every source you got the game scores from. unless you recorded that info in the spreadsheet.

excellence?
he’s right I could be dyslexic.
call it the closest i’ll ever get to a diary, so yeah i record it.
I’m already into August. Anybody want to know how it comes out?
by tommyjoepeters on Jun 19, 2008 4:48 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
cool, thanks
i was thinking (my first mistake) whether one could infer anything from the differential between median and mean runs scored per game.
for instance, if a team has a higher than average mean r.p.g. but a lower than average median, one might discount the mean when calculating projected season records.
like i said, my first mistake was ‘thinking’.
by explodingpinwheelsforfunandprofit on Jun 19, 2008 4:48 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
While we're at it
Here’re the selected AL teams’ medians vs oppo:
SOX- 5 vs 3
BOS- 5 vs 3
DET- 5 vs 4
OAK- 4 vs 3
CLE- 4 vs 4
NYY- 4 vs 4
LAA- 4 vs 4
MIN- 4 vs 5
Don’t have the Rays (yet).
