If they read it, they will just dismiss it (judging from the replies after you posted the link, that is precisely what they did, dismissed the article).
I posted the same article weeks ago when the issue first arose. I worked for over 25 years as a data analyst and dealt with data correlation on a daily basis. Part of my job was to keep people from making the mistake of inferring cause based solely on a finite sets of data. These people were usually either misinformed or lazy. Sometimes they were simply dimwitted.

On the other hand, I would at times use this false correlation/cause type of scenario to imply a result that really did not exist. This was usually used in sales and advertising.

I'm leaning towards misinformed because they are lazy. We no longer live in a vetted news cycle, the interwebs has filled the public space with e-pinions from individuals who's goal is not to become a credible information source, but rather to generate the most clicks. What was once space pretty much owned by The National Enquirer is now around every click and scroll and societies gullibility has increased 100 fold.

The whole run=win has been going on here for years albeit in a slightly different form.. Remember 'Ingram needs more carries to run well'? Just the slightest bit of critical thought about that statement should lead you to at least one assumptions if it is true. Ingram will never run well in the first or third quarters because he has not had time to build the mythical 'rhythm'...

Yes, the boiling water in the red kettle is 212F. The water is not 212F because the kettle is red lol.

I disagree with some of this statement. My work is pretty physical and that mystical rhythm it's not mystical. It's true. Can't speak for other people but I can account for how I feel and perform. And yes one can start off slow and sluggish then the blood really gets to flowing( I'm usually starting to sweat by this time) and this little thing kicks in called adrenaline which really helps to keep up that mythical rhythm you speak of. I'm no work out junkie like most pro atheletes are and can only imagine how strong and alert they become once they find a rhythm but in no way shape or form is it a mystical thing.

We have to put in another guy to throw long which alerts the common 12 year old fan to defend either a bomb or a qb sweep. They will be ready for it next season. Come next season my expectations are minuscule . Because I’m done getting burnt by the eye candy.

Nope. It doesn't make me mad. It makes me more sad that it leads the ignorant into believing the incorrect and repeating it as gospel to other uninformed who then take it as fact.
