Understood, completely, and I don't necessarily expect everyone to cite research at the level you would, although statements about complex issues are best served when backed with (at least) a bit of substance. However, when a person claims t…

When talking about the use of scientific method, the biggest problem we face is that it will not produce a useful result if the underlying basis is flawed. The quality of its output depends upon the quality of its input. The prison example i…

HarveyCanal said:The retrospective look at Dre's entire career seems to be a case of him being into and even succeeding at things that he wasn't really into. He wasn't into wearing make-up and funny suits, but there are the Wrecking Crew photos. One…

He might want to think about toning it down a bit. Now for real entertainment, try Jose Canseco's Twitter feed, containing gems like: If I shrink our Sun to the size of a grain of sand the milkly way would still be as big as all of the…

Bon Vivant said:Steven Ridley is a fumble machine. Are you sure about that? A quick lookup after you mentioned it shows his fumble rate to be below average. More importantly, that's a team stat, and if you look at it, the Pats have averaged half t…

This thread is slightly hilarious. I haven't taken a 'side' on this, and I won't (but for disclosure, I'm a lifelong Seahawks fan, and I don't believe deflation played any role in the SB). I do have some thoughts and questions. It's ve…

PatrickCrazy said:First off, there's very little historical context on cases like this as there have been very few cases where something like this has been caught on video. So only cases caught on video are considered valid historical context? No o…

I'm not even sure how one hears this and thinks "ham". I mean, if it's not your cup of tea, then OK, but even then it's hard to argue that Otis didn't kill it.
