Losing brings out the worst in everybody.

What numbers was he talking about?

Benjamin Grimm Sep 27 2020 07:31 AM Re: Howie Rose Has Got Your Probability Right Here

Yes, I also need some context here.

My most-informed guess is Wayne was likely quoting the postseason probability percentages proffered by the likes of Baseball Prospectus. ”The Mets have a 1.1% chance of making the playoffs”, that sort of thing.

Howie!?! Gobbledygook? Is that like horse hockey, pigeon pellets and/or beaver biscuits? (asking for a friend)

No. Not really s**t (meadow muffins is my personal favorite, courtesy of Col. Potter on M*A*S*H).

More like doubletalk or confusing language.

Whatever his euphemisms, Howie is all class. https://twitter.com/howierose/status/1310260082089897992?s=21

I do agree with Howie's opinion on those stats.

I confess that I enjoy knowing what the odds are.

Howie imo ought not be aggressively and knowingly old-school AND sensitive to critics at the same time. That said, the original tweet-ee is the one who failed to fully comprehend Howie's schtick. I'm sure irl Howie is capable of comprehending, he just doesn't like it
