Ben Baldwin making everyone stupid, Part 8 billion.

Sure, it’s purely about machismo and dumb football guys not understanding math. It’s never because the presumed rate of success is a best guess and the coaches have superior information on the likelihood that his players will execute correctly.

“Enlightened” in real life is when the coach has faith in their personnel to achieve the task at the rate presumed by analytics in making the recommendation.

Because how can the formula know if your left guard sucks? Or that Jalen Carter is off the field?

Ben still evaluating the wisdom of coaching decisions without access to the same information the coaches have. It’s one of the stealthiest clout grifts in Internet history.

Why do I care? Because Ben makes BOTH football and analytics dumber.

This is the quiet part they’re not saying out loud.

*Conservative Christianity (whatever that’s even supposed to mean).

Trampoline Academy @trampschool.bsky.social · 1d

Oooh, wow, *slightly* higher. All the way up to 24%! And it’s not even sorted by denomination!

This story about Gen Z being way into Evangelical Christianity does not even tell us that Gen Z is actually more into Evangelical Christianity.

Also, is this really even a thing relative to other generations?

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

A. It’s an entirely unreasonable expectation that you would be listening to an announcer who actually does that.

B. LOL. No.

Insisting the military DOESN’T get paid at all is surely the best path to preserving military loyalty.

Trampoline Academy @trampschool.bsky.social · 3d

Yeah, but this is an exaggeration of what’s happening at the moment. Bureaucratic semantics aren’t going to give Trump a private army.

Broadcasting sports is virtually impossible to master. So I just bailed on that part of the experience years ago.

Though team announcers in baseball have the best chance to perfect it because they get the most reps.

Trampoline Academy @trampschool.bsky.social · 3d

I never understand people who complain about broadcasters. Don’t pay attention to them. Pretend like it’s a high school math teacher and just ignore every word coming at you.

So, it looks like this is just going to tell you who has the lowest price for your meds.

That can often be achieved without telling the federal govt what meds you’re on. Which is probably desirable if you’re taking meds that could identify you as a person the govt might want to persecute.

Every "Give Trump the Nobel" op-ed has the tone of an exhausted parent arguing with the other about letting their tantrum fueled toddler have the toy so they can just get the hell out of Target without child services being alerted.

I think he’s saying that this game will appear as an outlier in DVOA among other Eagles’ games. And that this may bear explanation for people looking to understand when and why the Eagles don’t play well.

Juxtaposing the reality with the rhetoric is the single best method I can think of.
