I consider myself a person who appreciates statistics. And I like how -- within the article -- that there's very little context as to what this applies to, and yet I immediately relate to it.
Does this apply to RIPUL summer league specifically? I ask because, I initially thought it was just a Buzzfeed-style gimmicky jersey color power ranking article, for any given locality's summer league that uses mass produced colored jerseys. But after sharing this article on my IG story, and discussing it with frisbee friends, I'm realizing that: oh wait, the numbers are like legit based on some collection of player stats
You're not the first person to think I was power ranking jersey colors!
I've tended not to explain much in these articles. I'd say that's because I have slightly mixed feelings about posting power rankings predictions for what is, after all, a rec league. So I leave some of the context out, and my real-life friends who read the blog will know what I'm doing while non-local readers will probably not. And yes, the Elo-based rankings (the image) are based on actual data of previous years' win/loss records for players/teams. My predictions (the list of text) are just based on how I feel about each roster.
Someone at league last night actually told me they saw your Instagram story so I guess we have friends in common!
I am the target audience for this article
Why exactly is that if I may ask? (More about the "data/prediction" aspect, or more about the "coverage of local leagues" aspect?)
....yes.
