also i have rebutted some of phildo's points on baseball, notably the RE27 (i think) park effects argument between ryan howard and adrian gonzalez
i am not judging the quality of everyone who thinks you are stupid, but it is pretty undeniably true that the vast vast majority of 2p2 thinks you contribute negative value to the forums (to put it mildly). whatever you think about that is your own business
personally i find it great that we have a big shot lawyer who loves to argue on 2p2 that everyone hates much as i enjoy a mid-20's guy with two kids in an unwed relationship supporting his family on a deteriorating online poker industry slinging insults at everyone else
and i should have used darin erstad. came to me when i was taking a ****
Well a piece of **** team that won the world series. So there's that.
By the way, while you are here (and all joking aside - which all of the negative stuff is, whether you believe it or not) since you are an authority on the subject:
We were talking about WAR and what types of values it properly captures. How does it account for someone like Darrell Evan's who had such a great arm that people stopped running on him? Obviously his assists go way down and in the scorebook it looks like nothing happened, when in reality he kept a runner from advancing.
Thanks in advance.
I don't think I contribute negative value by the way, and I don't think anyone can say I am stupid with a straight face. I will admit that what I enjoy and do is not eveyone's cup-of-tea, but that's how it goes. If my whole body of work was put on display, there is loads of bitchin' stuff that has kept many people entertained over the years. But, most importantly, I am entertained. So no matter how much I am loathed, I still win because I am very entertained by the whole thing. If I am such a negative factor, I guess the only way to deal with it is a permaban.
I'm not a big shot lawyer by the way. I don't say that, I have never said or implied that I am a big shot. Others add that stuff to be derisive. I don't mind that they do, but I just think it is better that you are so informed.
