Also, the entire league is slotted between 85 and 97 points (and seemingly randomly).
When you build models, one of the simplest and most important tests of the model is to see if the results make sense - are they reasonable?
And when they are this far removed from 'reasonable', they are either breaking new ground (unlikely) or the model is garbage (more likely). In this case, the model is CLEARLY garbage. The fact that hey tweeted out the results is astounding, as it just makes them look like idiots.
