PSG looked pretty good for a warmup game but how will they do in the pinnacle of all club competitions against the Seattle Sounders
Actual engraving on the trophy: "But today, we are witness to a new age. The golden era of club football: the era of the FIFA Club World Cup. The pinnacle of all club competitions. Inspired by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, the tournament, first staged in 2025, eclipses any precedent."

I’ve long used FiveThirtyEight’s interactive “Hack Your Way To Scientific Glory” to illustrate the idea of p-hacking when I teach statistics. But ABC/Disney killed the site earlier this month :(
So I made my own with #rstats and Observable and #QuartoPub ! stats.andrewheiss.com/hack-your-way/

I'm back in the blogging game with my first original writing in a bit (that isn't a mock draft) about what to make of #GrindingTheMocks data at this point in the cycle and Quinn Ewers's just-made decision to declare for the 2025 NFL Draft. Enjoy!

Liverpool's defense in the early season has been fantastic.
Only one xG conceded above the league average.
Only two xG deficits, from which they did not lose.
And they're currently holding Spurs to under a goal of xG.
[As a Spurs fan,] Yikes.

Let's take a look at trade and free agency activity around the Winter Meetings. That last day of meetings really ups the urgency on the trade front. Little more of a steady build and decline for FA signings.

I am thankful for all the new followers here on BlueSky. It feels nice that some of you might be interested in my thoughts! Here's a nibbler about the 2025 NFL Draft Class. Which player's draft stock has risen the most since the summer (log-adjusted of course)? Hint: if it quacks like a duck...

I have to give credit to the Browns. They have pushed the Steelers to up their game! Best of times.

It's so nice to see a team get aggressive and really take it to the Steelers. Make them pay for playing such a low-variance (and low fun) version of football.
