Genius. And yes I am telling that a team struggling at home statistically is going to produce the end result of the team struggling at home to win. I'm not sure what other conclusion you would gather from those statistics. You know, there are smokers who have cancer that didn't get it from smoking cigarettes...

Nah, those can't happen right. You mean like the five or so individual stats that were cherry picked in this thread? Those can't be it.

Meaning simply because you observe something which might indeed be harmful, it isn't always actually the cause of the harm you've diagnosed...

August 8, 201114 yr Author Ironically, when I started the thread (sorry) I wondered if anyone had asked Ozzie or Kenny for their explanation. Ozzie was apparently asked this afternoon. He doesn't have one: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseb...0,6284243.story
