Time for some meaningless stats!

Since we're near the middle of the season, thought I'd throw out my HTHTHTHTHTHTHTHTH standings, plus a few bonus stats!

Current standings:

1)Crows - 5-2
2)GOATS - 5-2
3)Grill - 4-3
4)Draft - 4-3
5)Spoon - 3-4
6)Cool - 3-4
7)HOOOSE- 3-4
8)EH - 3-4
9)Rocket- 3-4
10)Pooler 2-5

Of course, some people catch bad breaks here and there (having a huge week, only to catch a matchup with the highest scoring team of the week). If we each played EVERYONE else every week, here's what the standings would look like:

1)Crows - 43 wins
T2)Grill - 39 wins
T2)Spooner - 39 wins
4)Draft - 35 wins
5)HOOOOSE - 34 wins
6)Coolah! - 32 wins
7)EH - 29 wins
T8)Goat - 24 wins
T8)Corn - 24 wins
10)Poolah (still) - 15 wins

What do we learn from this? Tony's good, Pooler, not so much. AJ has caught a few breaks along the way, and everybody else is about where they need to be based on scoring.

Some other interesting stats:

Toughest schedule (highest per week average against) - Pooler, his opponents are scoring an average of 100 points per week.

Easiest schedule (lowest per week average against) - AJ, his opponents are scoring an average of 80 points per week.

No surprises with highest and lowest average scores (Crows and Handwich).

The GOAT's have been the most consistent team week to week: his average score is 82, his median 82, with a standard deviation of only 12 points.

I've been far and away the least consistent: average of 97, median of 88 (my 148 point week helped with that), with a standard deviation of 28 points!

Something that I've thought about undertaking (but won't) is looking at everyone's record had they played their "optimum lineup", in an attempt to gauge the relative strength of everyone's team (but even I don't have enough free time for that).

I'll try and get the spreadsheet up onto Google docs sometime today for those of you interested. I'm sure Sweet Dee will be doing some kind of statistical analysis on the teams in the next few weeks as well.
