So rather than looking at the stats themselves, their significance/validity/confidence/etc...
You focus your attention on how many bloggers got hired to an internship?
Does this give the NHL.com data-scraped blogger statistics credibility to you?
It gives the concepts and models validity, because NHL teams decided to employ them and the people that created them. That they've poured resources into improving data collection and filling the gaps doesnt change the base concept.
And yeah. I'm going to tear down your repeated attempts to build up an image of a 19 year old stats minor blogging away and getting thrown a bone to sit in a cubicle in the basement.
