From a scientific standpoint it's the most horrible piece I've read in a while. I'm flat out embarrassed that a credible statistician comes up with stupidity like that.

Not saying he won't be right at the end of the season, but his lopsided reasoning is beyond awful.
Hollinger is neither credible nor a statistician. He comes up with his own opinions then screws around with numbers until he "proves" them. Real statisticians seek the truth in numbers and should all be irate that Hollinger sullies their field.
