@brianphillips.bsky.social I needed something uplifting during yard work, so I turned on the euphoria machine called 22 Goals for the first time in 4 years and it’s still sooo good. So many great stories and hilarious bits and pure enthusiasm

@tangotiger.com I'm trying to recreate your Marcel-style batting and pitching forecasts from scratch.

I think I finally understand var(obv) = var(tal) + var(luck) and how to calculate the 'constant' to get r=0.5

I can do that for wOBA overall, but I can also do it for each batting component

@analyticf.pl how often/when do your models update? I've been desperate for a 538 replacement and I got hooked on your models, so I'm dying over here after this weekend!

@dmitry.mclachbot.com not the biggest thing, but could you update mclach app to allow for multi-year team and player comparisons?

I'd often like to see a rolling average for a team from one season to the next, or see a player's profile over multiple years/bigger sample

@kierdoyle.bsky.social since shouldn’t be much to talk about after Morecambe, can you do a season long review of how Maresca has changed?

Seems we spent ~2 months not pressing and using subs, to lots of pressing and no more subs. Also Gusto as 10 to Enzo/Cucu as 10.

Re: Chelsea & Pellegrini offside trap, I see the high line and defenders stopping their momentum, causing them to fall behind when the attack keeps moving, but isn't the bigger issue all of those chances have unmarked attackers which allow the attack to keep moving?

I agree, yet they gave him power that he's gonna be able to wield and abuse for 4 years, and the consequences will last far beyond that

And, unlike last time, the group of people he'll empower this time won't try to stop him
