2114711, advanced stats aren't proofs of shit and don't have to be theory driven

they're numbers that quantify and simplify. how you use them is the moment where theory gets involved. I think that's where he's mad because you end up conflating the statistic and its application in a model/argument.

It's only funny till someone gets mad. Then it's hilarious.
