I did it

I wrote the article

wish me luck

Lionel Messi is the GOAT, Ronaldo is not, why just about every statistical analyst agrees

[Benjamin Morris @skepticalsports]

I love Messi, but this is NOT a good way to measure improbability of outliers. E.g. in my old Rodman series I used the Gumbel Distribution for extreme values to show that Rodman’s 94-95 season should happen ~once every 400 years, not once every billion like “6 sd” would indicate.

[Ted Knutson @mixedknuts]

Who has written the best World Cup analysis so far? Give me links so we can help publicise the good stuff to everyone else out there.

[Dai @Dai_Cymru]

@JanVanHaaren Congrats, Jan 👏

[Drew Levin @drewlevin]

Does anyone with experience in the sports analytics world (especially hockey or soccer) follow me? I’d love to talk about potential applications of individual skill evaluation systems there to League of Legends. Pls reply here and I’ll DM.

Good, clear explainer on the Llywydd/Dep issue. Very tricky for Plaid to avoid putting someone forward.

[Dai @Dai_Cymru]

That's my vote in.
Plaid Cymru is the vote for Cymru.

WHAT HAVE WE JUST WITNESSED? 🤯

Sabastian Sawe has just become the first person in history to run a sub two-hour marathon in race conditions.

Yomif Kejelcha was also under two hours for second!

[Dai @Dai_Cymru]

I cannot recommend this enough.

Well done bois an outstanding piece detailing the demise of our national sport. @will_owen9 @SquidgyGoat

[Squidge Rugby @SquidgeRugby]

In 2019, Wales were the number one rugby team in the world. Five years later, they were on an 18-match, 2-year losing streak with no hope in sight. This is the story of how negligence, incompetence, and austerity tore apart one of rugby's proudest nations-

Another example of a structural wagering theorem. I show under risk-constraint the active set (wagered outcomes) remains the same, but the wealth profile is distorted. Follow-up to Boyd et al (2016).

@Orbinho Congrats, all the best🫡

the new Expecting Goals newsletter continues my studies of the set piece revolution in the Premier League

Corner kicks and long throws have accounted for nearly 1 in 4 of PL goals scored this season

How did this happen?

There are two clear innovators -- Brentford and Arsenal

Liftoff.

The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon.

Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

My new paper is now live on arXiv that covers single and simultaneous races with multiple outcomes. There are three major results.
