As The Worm Turns…

Brian Cook continues to, I assume, lay “groundwork” for his arguments against the mlive.com piece. This time, he’s republished a piece called “Destroy Harbaugh” in which he takes a bunch of numbers and manipulates them or outright fabricates them to essentially argue “everybody’s doing it.” He does so while slandering Notre Dame. But in the re-posting of this piece, he drops this quick note as a preface:

Editor’s note: The Notre Dame numbers were disputed by some ND readers; ND’s site lists two majors for everyone or a major-minor pair or something; it was confusing and I just ticked down a bunch of majors; I wouldn’t take the assertions of grouping below seriously. Suffice it to say that guys with 6th to 8th grade reading levels apparently average a 3.5 at ND; they’re probably not taking astrophysics.

Amazing how difficult it can be to read and copy down the majors of a college football team for someone with such a self-proclaimed aptitude for “data” analysis. To help Brian out, I’ll just re-link to our response to his original stem of fecal matter.

Also incredible: Brian’s misunderstanding of the phrase, “Suffice it to say.”
