it's 1:30. lunch is gone dave

 

I find that people don’t treat analytics like “from this angle, the numbers appear to illustrate ___” and instead approach it from “these are numbers so they can’t be challenged or disputed in any angle or any context” in order to inflate their credibility over folks who combine multiple angles / perspectives into their opinion, that’s why I have a knee jerk reaction to it.

 

and we did already talk about lunch smh

 

Some of us have jobs and responsibilities.

 

chef salad with turkey from the cafeteria

6/10

(everything is 6/10 - could be way worse)

 

Where do you work that has a cafeteria?

 

You could just...not do that haha.

Also, the people who combine multiple angles and perspectives are the ones using analytics. The ones dismissing them outright are not.

 

I believe @Night Channels is the only one of us that has any professional relationship to football

 

I mainly take issue in that I dont think “using the analytics” vs “making a subjective decision” is the right framing of what happens

you’re making a decision regardless and there’s a sliding scale of how much you’re incorporating data and/or models (and which ones) into that process. I don’t think it is possible to “make draft decisions entirely off analytics” because what does that actually mean?

 

Yes, and even he has terrible takes sometimes. (no offense Night Channels, I trust your opinions about the draft! Lol)

 

@Randall Mentzos has served several Jaguars and I've served several Panthers.

 

state farm totaled my wife's car and had us send over the title to them. they've already paid off what we owed on the car and stopped paying for a rental, so my wife is driving mine and I'm driving an extra truck we have at the warehouse. they still have not paid us the difference/balance for the totaled car

wtf

 

that's crazy why didnt I hear your names this hiring cycle?

 

Settle down MAGA Mentzos

 

sorry dave!!!

 

Florio Mentzos

 

or Randall Florio. Idk if that's his first or last name or if it's a Cher/Zendaya situation

 

randall mentos, is that anything

 

I watched football on thanksgiving 2019 with Victor Green and after a couple hours he told me I’m good at analyzing football & have much more knowledge about play calls and their intent than the average fan, so that’s good enough for me lol

he played for Belichick, Parcells, and Pete Carroll. It was really fun to pick his brain. Of course I tried to play it as cool as possible and only said something when no one else was talking haha

 

vibes are a professional metric

 

because I served Jerry Richardson and Tepper wants to distance himself from that

 

idk who victor green is

 

shoutout Ed Dickson though. That dude was the best.

 

Yeah and that’s kind of my point. Using stats and analytics, a lot of the time the conclusions you draw and the decisions you make are still mostly subjective, based on how you weigh certain aspects of an extremely complex set of possible causes and possible effects… and it’s pretentious to think otherwise
