I preferred regular season records to bowl records for 2 reasons: 1 there's a lot more games so the result is more accurate, and 2 except for major bowl games, a lot of teams mail it in and the month or more layoff leads to weird performances.

Meant to specify: the records listed are regular-season.

Well, that's one source and it has some pretty crazy results. Here's Sagarin's, which still support your point, but not as strongly and have Notre Dame #2 instead of #40:

The Top Ten ranked SEC teams's opponents today:

It's "ad nauseam".

Who said I can't figure it out? I thought I made my view of it pretty clear:

Probably because that wouldn't fit the Jezebel narrative. Around here, you usually count as 'black', and/or get your achievements celebrated, only if you're black and liberal.

Wow this is a very well put together piece, Dvorsky. Thanks for this work.

Well, that's kind of a worst-case financial scenario.

That looks way of base.

My heart sang when it became apparent Lori was about to croak.

Sure. I do. It seems like someone should stand by their commenting - a history of comments helps establish your persona, and even real personal details over time that give credibility and context. A burner seems like a drive-by approach.

Wouldn't photoshop actually be of *more* use to a person less beautiful than Kroes? In other words, aren't you kind of being illogical?

From David and Bathsheba to the Trojan War, and on through time to the Bush/Rumsfeld pissing match with Hussein (Saddam, that is, not B. Hussein Obama), that would seem to fit the bill in many cases.

Ha, yeah that would pretty much be my thought process if I were budgetmeister.

Yeah, I get that. And personal security and wanting to avoid horrible incidents like getting yelled are legit things to worry about.

Well, just because it's an "expected response", which I do not quite concede tho I admit it's probably a common tactic, doesn't mean it's not trickery, right? If she didn't want to interact with him, she could have just said, "Look, I'm really just trying to focus on this work right now" and returned to her studies. …

Kinda seems like you're giving an awfully black-and-white lecture to a guy who just had his approach apparently work, and which approach seems straightforward, open, and honest.

That's inaccurate. Here's a fairer statement of the change to the status quo:
