once the dickin is out of the way, what else is left to do?

It's about that time... :excite:
I guess it depends on what the criteria is. Are we talking championships? Playoff appearances? Playoff wins? Losing records? Division wins? Etc.

NBA champions I would think would have the least parity oat at t. There's only like 3 franchises that have ever won a championship. NFL I would think is not too far behind... out of the last 10 or 15 super bowls (20 or 30 teams), I would bet there are only 8-10 franchises. That's less than a third of the league.

I find it a lot easier to argue my points when I don't bother verifying their accuracy. Women figured this **** out long ago. I feel dumb

apologize a lot

I'd think a real easy measurement would be to what degree a teams previous seasons win totals correlate with their current win totals (autocorrelation), and it would be a really easy thing to plug into a program like SAS. It doesn't look like anyone's bothered before afaict.

twss?

youre good at fake statistics

well for one teams changed divisions and two there used to be 3 wild card spots and 3 divison winners and now its 4 division winners and 2 wild cards spots so its not the same to compare pre 2000 to nao and 3 there are also less teams per division

If there's high autocorrelation it would indicate a lack of parity and vice versa.

well i have to go to work i hate working nights

It's good conversation. Lately my first dates have typically lasted at least 6 hours. No kissing or sexing involved either

don't talk about it be about it

The low parity is more a testament to how well the top nfl organizations are run. You pretty much have to have higher parity when ur players have 25% the avg career length.

Greg was right let's talk about something else

So much fail in here.

I'm unmotivate ... would be a lot easier to actually find some study that's already been done

**** you, you don't get the last word.

I'm always right tho

I completely concur.

a first date that lasts 6 hours sounds completely terrible

Mine last about ~13 minutes

30 minutes in the meet and greet phase, 5 hours of ****in, 30 minutes explaining why she cant sleep over

sounds good to me

.

yeah, you wish

It's like 3 dates combined into one, more like an adventure. Usually involves about 3 different location

lol i'm ******ed
