And the sabre-nerds are scouts and mathematical geniuses that create accurate formulas? Where the hell do the 13, 3, and 2 come from anyway?

Ummm.... what are you asking?

The 13, 3, and 2 are the effects each has on a game. The 13, HRs, has a larger effect on the game than a K, or 2.

He posted that earlier jntg what they meant

 

[tbo41fan]

But jntg is correct. You can't say that the human eye of scouts aren't perfect, but then say your formulas are perfect. Your contradicting yourself

You show me where I said that FIP is perfect. Go on, show me.

 

[Jntg4]

Well you said you can't use what you see because the human eye isn't perfect. But you can use FIP, so apparently you think it is perfect.

 

[tbo41fan]

You can not tell me that when you evaluate him by watching him pitch, you take into account just the things he is responsible for. So yes, I would like to use a formula, something that does not have any bias once soever.

Something that isn't biased, thus making it perfect.

Well you said you can't use what you see because the human eye isn't perfect. But you can use FIP, so apparently you think it is perfect.

Bingo

That would an assumption, of the wrong variety. I didn't say you can't use the human eye, I just said that it deceives.

Bingo

That is not true at all. FIP just takes the bias out of the equation. Way to put words in my mouth.

Hypocrite.

That would an assumption? WTF does that mean?

And I'd rather use my eyes than use hypothetical garbage.

Assumption

Okay, well your eyes are going to deceive you. But, if you want to live in the 19th century, you go for it!

I know what an assumption is, but your sentence made no sense.

You are assuming that I think it is perfect. It makes complete sense.

 

[Jntg4]

Actually "that would an assumption" makes no sense at all. "That would be an assumption" does however.

Oh my fucking Jesus Christ, are you really posting about a small, small, typo? Get a fucking life.

 

[Jntg4]

I have actually. And stop using God's name in vein. The Ten commandments request you do not do it. If you aren't a Christian, then don't bring my Lord Jesus Christ into it.

CO, don't get mad when people correct you.

And don't start attacking people and their beliefs

You shouldn't start sentences with "and." You also should end all sentences with punctuation.

I was not attacking his beliefs, I was just sharing my beliefs, because ya know... this is a religious forum.
