Literally, how?

"You're wrong" without explaining why

I said in an earlier post:

Explain how the very data I showed proved me wrong?

Obviously I'm not going to do it for the skaters, but the relationship between draft position and becoming a starting goaltender is not nearly as strong as the relationship between the draft position of a skater and his likelihood of becoming an "impact" NHLer.

I can guarantee that if such an example was done with skaters, the graph would show an inverse exponential relationship.

ex.



You know, it's not like I'm ricardodw. I'm not making up stats that don't make sense. This is very basic stuff that many people, besides just me, have said in the past. I post on this forum to discuss things with other fans, not to contribute to groupthink. Don't take me seriously. Fine. Either stop acting like a child or put me on ignore so you don't have to post useless quips to let people know you don't take me seriously. That is not conducive to a logical discussion.
