Why do you and FT hate them so?

If they were simply tallying stats (which is some of their stats), I would have no issue.
However, they are using kids - with no real credible football experience - subjective control over compiling stats for plays they can't even see.
I'll use the offensive tackle "pressure" stat I mentioned before. I actually emailed them and questioned why one of our tackles received bad grades in a game that Cutler went almost complete untouched (no hits) and zero sacks. They said it was pressures that were counted when he stepped up to throw as the edge rusher passed behind him.
There are many other examples of games when Urlacher dominated and got a negative grade.
Then there were the countless times that they actually got player snap-counts wrong. I have several examples.
Then you have their derivative stats like "accuracy under pressure" which has a foundation of a "made-up/subjective" stat: Pressure.
Their stats are crap.
