Warrior General Games

Since sdumont & the Cock N Bulls didn't join us in A ball this season, I took it upon myself to take Caledric's spreadsheet and crunch the numbers.... format may be totally f'd for now but should improve as I get the hang of copying & pasting from Excel.

If I remember correctly from seeing this in season's past, the accuracy of the predictions tend to improve as the season goes along and more data's included. I doubt the Kaisterslautern/Kobenhavn game, for example, will be a 159 point victory for either team....

Parma Panthers vs Passion Fruits (44-19) Spread: 25
Manchester Spartans vs Stalingrad Snipers (44-30) Spread: 14

Very interesting.
Thanks

lol @ continuing edits!

im going to finish 6th

These results should definitely get better as the season goes on--I don't think the computer really has a feel for who we are yet, and has a VERY limited sample size to derive its predictions from. For example:

Kobenhavn will destroy the other K-team I can't pronounce.

Stockholm will beat the Union Jacks.

Manchester most likely wins by more than 17.

Argonauts will win by, hold on now what did our soothsayer predict? Oh yeah, 16 points.

I do love reading these though, especially as the season goes on--thanks very much for taking the time to post this!

Interesting!

Great job on this although I am going to pull a reverse Pete Rose and take the Bull Riders plus the points. No way we cover in this one.

He blew those chances when he made the decision to inject all of his players with HGH...good thing for us that East Cairo is on another continent from you European clowns so we're not subject to the same drug testing protocols.

How the hell did it manage to pull that number out of it's hat for the Falken/Red Devils game? Must be all of those super slow build guys we have hanging around the locker room, rumor has it they've been pulling some practical jokes on the opposing teams, better watch out A #1

it must be this asshole of a player who is holding us back http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1194308

Try as I might, I can't figure that one out... the high spreads in the Hat Tossers and Stallions games, while way out of proportion, can at least be easily understood since they're both playing gutted teams, neither of which have scored a point this season. But neither Falken nor the Devils have played garbage teams, and I'm not about to sit here & proclaim I in any way understand the formulas involved in the spreadsheet.

To that end, put me down for a hundy on the under.
