    Then why play the games at all? The computer can just predict the outcomes based on history? Also why does the SOR change so drastically after a single loss? The only "facts" that SOR provides is what has happened in the past, the rest is a prediction based on history. That's not a fact. Look, this is going in circles. I know your stance, you know mine. I guess we just need to agree to disagree.

    I guess that's what I'm trying to figure out, I have no idea what your stance is and what you're disagreeing with, or in favor of, other than you're critical of SOR as it seems imperfect? On that we agree, I'm sure it is imperfect although it seems superior to anything else. If it's not, I'm at a loss to find something that for my purposes gives more relevant and comprehensive information. The computer isn't predicting anything nor is that the intent. It's simply giving you information, you might not like the facts that it gives you but what you do with it and how you apply it to provide insight into the current year is up to you.
