Did anyone else notice Bernstein embarrass himself throughout this thing on Friday? On several occasions he would proffer some statistical analysis in the hopes he would show he was down with the cause. Time and again Sheehan told him his understanding of the statistics was incorrect. I think it exposed Dan's as a parrot with little true understanding of the advanced metrics he uses to club others.

Sheehan shot him down on his "a manager has to be on the right side of win expectancy" thought. It was great.

It was in the 5:00 hour I think. It was embarrassing. He gave some long winded lead up to his great thought and asked if Sheehan agreed. "No" was his answer. :lol:

win expectancy comments, Dan was hilariously different than Joe though.

My real point is that it exposed Dan as having a less than basic grasp of concepts he frequently uses/abuses to display other people's ignorance. It really is a great interview and worthy of a listen.
