We need Stats on Roger Clemens, Stat!

| 2 Comments | No TrackBacks

I am not a doctor, nor do a play one on TV. Wharton professors refute the Clemens' team analysis of his later career years. I was a business major and had to take business statistics in my college years, but this is all Greek to me. Besides, as the Sports Freak can attest to, our stat professor was the cure for insomnia.

"Selection Bias" sticks out in the report. While I couldn't make heads or tails of 18,000 word report (which I fully admit I did not read in it's entirety), I did think Clemens' legal team might sway the stats in favor of him. Now some Ivy Leaguers seem to think that.

Still not proof that Clemens was dirty, but it does not help his case.

While I am a big believer in statistics in baseball, I don't think that stats can be used to prove or disprove the use of performance enhancing drugs. And no, I don't have any stats to back that thought up.

I've heard the rumors and stories circulating that now Clemens wife was supposedly taking HGH. Could someone explain to me why she'd need HGH?

Not too mention the saving of needles etc. Whatever the reason to save such items, it seems like it was too difficult to just allegedly toss away such things...much like Monica's little blue stained dress.

This just gets stranger by the minute.
