    I prepared a detailed graph to deal with the issues raised in this thread.

    One more JC Denton style graph. I told you so a long time ago! Why did you previously berate me on this. I always knew I was right.

    Statistical Genius eh? 12 Games proves ALL of your "points" over the years correct? Ever heard of sample size?

    Good evening Clutchfans. I would like to discuss a few premises that I believe are now agreed with by the majority of people here. I will list them briefly:

    1) JCDenton is either an absolute moron or troll whose posts and threads are a waste of our time (minus this post ;) ). This bufoon boasts on and on about how great he is, but fails to realize that this is the internet, and he is essentially anonymous. Therefore he is a nobody, just like the rest of us.

    2) He blows at stats.

    dude the reason people think your a troll and call you names is because your post are not good. You don't leave them open to discussion, you just try to prove yourself right using terrible stats and analyse.

    I still remember the graphs. As a statistics major at UT it made me shudder.

    When I get on Clutchfans, I'm just concerned about whose pessimistic projections are right so that I can pat them on the back for it.


    Not.

    I'm here to discuss the current team and have constructive conversation.

    I will admit, posting remarks like this doesn't add much, but I just don't have the self control to ignore so many dumb threads and not say anything.

    lol. you are the only poster with these criticisms and now you want credit as being "ahead of the curve"

    you're an Internet poster on a message board.

    your opinions are worthless.

    Sums up my feelings as well. I've had 7 years participation of NON-rebuttal, patience and open mindedness all the way through. I have gotten some rep points for objective comments and keeping and even keel (thanks guys, I don't give out enough rep in return).

    But those days are done :eek: You can identify the straight jackasses from the reactionary kneejerk threads at times. I don't see why the jackasses should get protection when its obvious they're not contributing meaningfully.

    Back in the day they would tar and feather village idiots like you and run you out of town. Do the right thing and stop posting.

    The main reason I still frequent Clutchfans is for JCDenton's graphs - so detailed and complex are they. Two axes, you say?! Statistical genius is an understatement.

    JCdenton, how about you honor your bet and never post here again? Like you gave your word you would?
