I made the only one I planned on making earlier when I said the following:

I am surprised anyone would argue that statistics cannot be skewed to favor an argument. I mean there’s even a saying about lies, damn lies and statistics.
It is a well known fact that statistics can be skewed to support your argument. I think a perfect example is when you were adding “offseasons” when we were arguing transfers to make the rate look lower.

How ironic that you would suggest that I skewed that previous discussion on offseasons by “adding offseasons.” I agree with you that this previous discussion on transfers and offseasons is a perfect example of skewing facts. Except I was the one who presented facts in that discussion (that we are in Gott’s 5th offseason as head coach), and you were the one who wanted to skew the facts to fit your agenda in making the transfer problem out to be worse than it has been.

It’s not really worth continuing the discussion with you. You have been beating the same drum for years, regardless of whether the facts and context fit or not. Carry on.
