Of course that’s your contention. You’re a first-year analytics intern. You just got finished reading some Sabermetric historian—Bill James, probably. You’re gonna be convinced of that ’til next month when you get to the latest Pitching+ update, and then you’re gonna be talkin’ about how SIERA is the only "true" measure of skill because it accounts for the complexity of the batted ball profile to CSW rates.
You have no thoughts of your own. You’re just looking at a movement plot and trying to sound smart. You’re gonna realize in a couple of years that you spent all that time calculating "Expected FIP" based on a "Skill-Interactive" ghost, when you could’ve just looked at the K/BB ratio and seen the whole picture.
The sad thing is, in about five years, you’re gonna realize you’re not that bright. You’re gonna be talkin’ about Skenes’ "Expected ERA" while the real experts are just looking at a box score and realizing that if a guy doesn't walk people and he misses bats, he's gonna be fine.
You dropped $100,000 on a Data Science degree to learn how to run a regression on a pitcher's "luck," when you could’ve gotten the same predictive value for five cents in late charges by looking at a K/BB leader board at the public library.
They promoted Chomsky’s Manufacturing Consent to distract you from reading Parenti’s Inventing Reality, which was written years earlier and is far better.
🇺🇸🇲🇽 Epstein won the LOTTERY multiple times for his Zorro Ranch near Mexican border, where the sex trafficking was
That it’s impossible he won randomly. It was a set up to funnel
Wow this sucks anyway care to comment on this email between your mentor Peter Thiel and Jeffrey Epstein where they talk about how engineering the collapse of America would be beneficial to them

Some autographs I got TTM recently plus an amazing Steve Carlton relic/auto/serialized card my wife got me for my birthday.
I haven’t been on here much and will more than likely delete this app soon. If y’all wanna keep up with me, I’m on Instagram @societal_scope
@DanielEvensen84@ScottiePippen Aye dude, I’m a huge fan of yours and a content creator centered around baseball history myself.
I wanted to hit you up about a potential interview/collaboration but my phone is outdated and I can’t msg on here. Can I give you my email?
