Virginia Giant Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I expected Texas to be way in the red for Romo, I assumed him being out and the team losing would only strengthen their love for him. Guess I was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 And...... In no way does that poll have any real meaning...there's over 300 million people in this country....even if say quarter of them are football fans, if all of them voted, I'm sure the numbers would look very different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Storm Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Polls shows the trend, most often they are right. I could see that argument if there were at least over a half million votes....It could just be more people in New York voted or more own computers...12,000 just isn't a big enough sample size...

Nesta Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 12000 is more than the sample size of most gallup and presidential polls. But anyway, we think it's funny. It's not like it means anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like it means anything. I sometimes forget that on sportswrath, you have to tell people if something is meant to be funny or if it's meant to be serious. Also, you've been away for a while, steer clear of sarcasm until you get the feel back of the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nesta Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 here's another poll Best team in the NFL Giants 52% Titans 48% 29,000 votes enough for ya debbie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 here's another poll Best team in the NFL Giants 52% Titans 48% 29,000 votes enough for ya debbie? Stats is bullshit math. Okay, so 15,000 people say the Giants are the best team in the NFL. 14,000 say the Titans are. Expand that to the several million football fans in the country and I might consider their opinion. Other than that, the fact is, the best team in the NFL until the Super Bowl is the team with the least amount of losses. Sorry for the Madden-esque expression.

A ton of states were red tonight and McCain still lost...and all that means is less people live in the states that were red and Obama won the states with higher population and therefore more electoral votes. Eli won bigger states(all of them) by a slim margin. Sure it's a fun stat but "statistics" (a poll) like these are meaningless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well considering 49 states were blue, and one state, Texas, was gray (within margin of error); you're wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
