Yeah but it's a pain in the ass for me or anyone else to have to explain the same things and post the same links to the same resources over and over and over.

Not to mention a lot of the people asking the questions aren't legitimately interested in answers, they just want to raise perceived (almost always nonsensical and ignorant) objections because they reject any statistic or analytical method that doesn't say good things about the team they cheer for.

If nothing else, just recognize that whatever brilliant hole you've found that totally discredits these stats, no, you are not the first person to think of it, and yes, it has been discussed and analyzed at length.
