They're a franchise that's been around since the early 20th century, and they play in a sport where a season has always been at least 140 games. I know that 10,000 is a nice round number, but sooner or later every team will have lost that many games, and if we're comparing their rate of losing to, say, football teams (16 games a year), then we need to look at all-time winning percentages, yes? I'd be dead certain that over their history the Arizona Cardinals or the LA Clippers have lost more frequently, percentage wise, than the Phillies.<BR/><BR/>(I'm sure this already occurred to you, but it bugs me nonetheless, kind of like how the all-time box office list is never adjusted for inflation, so the blockbuster of the current year is always one of the very top moneymakers of all time, but does anybody really think that more people saw Spiderman 3 than Star Wars or ET??!!)Kelly Sedingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10704114189919711467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660344.post-16028247402247853392007-07-17T07:39:00.000-04:002007-07-17T07:39:00.000-04:00thanks, Dan :-)thanks, Dan :-)Sean Meadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05065687969605540072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1660344.post-46523932856310121962007-07-17T07:30:00.000-04:002007-07-17T07:30:00.000-04:00I leave it to Kanazawa to rebutt the rebuttal, but...I leave it to Kanazawa to rebutt the rebuttal, but both Gelman (on his blog) and Nexon (in his comment) read more into both the article and the rebuttal than what is actually there.
