because you can't read. I said lvl 60 + lvl 71 < lvl 65 + lvl 66. Do you really not understand why?


again, lol'ing at the idea of 65+66 being better than 71+60

If you were dyslexic, this would be quite obvious.

dunno, Hounds are doing OK and we're maybe the most underleveled team in WL.

Not even close, actually.

First, I would never admit to being a statistics major (assuming you're not lying about that, which would be even more embarrassing). Second, don't claim to be a statistics major and then show a horrendously deficient understanding of statistics.

No doubt they are. Valhalla is the only one lower (by .2) as far as I can tell.

Closer, but still incorrect. Providence has a mean of 64.7 and a median of 64.

Its simple.
1) They no longer out level people

They are now finding out that they did not have better tactics then people. They just out leveled them. In fact they relied so much on the fact that they out leveled people they really don't have a good understanding of the game or how to gameplan for people. (USAPL, don't get your panties in a wad, there are some that can gameplan).

Now that all the statuswhores that used to demand in the recruiting forums "I will only play for a USA Pro league" are rolling with "I will only play for a World League team," USA Pro has also lost some of the inherent name-brand advantage they once enjoyed.

Hush!
If you keep laughing he might figure out that the 'Mentor' VA is useful.

Good point. That was their big pull for Free Agents. I wonder why SLAP is dominating?

pls, Gart, you're better than that. The former have more VA benefit, more equipment, and don't have one player in decline. Not to mention most 71s were inefficiently built and are no better than a 65/66 even before the impact of decline. It's not even a close call. Only thing the 71/60 combo has going for it is mentor which is really only helpful at certain positions.

Tell you what, you put together a roster next season of 1/2 players in decline and 1/2 season 6 players and we'll see how well you do. Up to the challenge?

lol at you if you think mean vs median is "statistics". That's more like 8th grade math. Have you gotten that far yet or are you still learning how to turn fractions into decimals?

err, season 3 players aren't declining, and are level 70.
