Average number of pages per game thread for a loss: 25.38095238 21 losses = 533 pages
Average number of pages per game thread for a win: 19.88571429 35 wins = 696 pages

I left the decimal places in just in case there's some hollingersabermetric perthreadutilization thing that needs them.

I still like donuts. And yes, I'm obviously at work.

have you ever thought of participating in the realgm knicks forum? there's a lot more positivity there as they don't really allow dissenting points of view.
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

A thread.....

about the number of threads.......

a negative thread.........;

about the number of posts after a loss.......is more negative.

And my man posts this after a loss?

So are you part of the problem or solution?

This can be explained by the negativity bias (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negativity_bias)
I expect you'd find similar data for other teams' forums too.

I think that far more callers call into radio stations post losses than wins

But you'll notice I didn't post it in an actual game thread; (where I believe the issue was originally brought up).
I should at least get points for not skewing the data. Lumps or no.

Post don't lie!

And the more interesting question, is there even a solution?

Listen to the Peas:

What's wrong with the world, mama?
People livin' like they ain't got no mamas
I think the whole world's addicted to the drama
Only attracted to things that'll bring the trauma

Madness is what you demonstrate
And that's exactly how anger works and operates
Man, you gotta have love just to set it straight
Take control of your mind and meditate, let your soul gravitate to the love, y'all, y'all

The truth is kept secret, it's swept under the rug
If you never know truth then you never know love
Where's the love, y'all? Come on
(I don't know)
Where's the truth, y'all? Come on
(I don't know)
Where's the love, y'all?

Is it the orange and blue and white?
Apparently, not quite.

If you want to make a change, then start one post at a time.......

You can't change the world until you change yourself!

Many of your posts are about posts.

are you yourelf about the orange and blue?

Some of the threads on here are about other threads. What of it?

You're not going to bait me into counting and averaging my own posts. So there.

As for what I'm about, you seriously have to be kidding...I can freely admit to having an official Dave Debusshere retirement night Knicks pennant. I've got a Knicks badge signed by Toby Knight. Mike Saunders handed me an official pair of Knicks practice shorts. They were still in the bag. I got dunked on by Butch Beard and housed by Clinton Wheeler. How bout you?

And the sweatband thing is past over. No one even knows what you're talking about anymore. Let it go. It's not fresh and original.

I think twice about coming on these boards after a loss- I don't mind criticism or fear, but its the s***y agendas and gloating that annoys me more than anything.

Now I understand where your coming from with the "Dr J sweatband" thing came from.

How bout me? SO Am I to understand your concern with the negative thread count is premised by your fandom anchored by the knick memorabilia you hve collected?

Ok, I have a dried band-aid from Ray Williams arm, An official Tickey BUrdan flea collar, a knick badge signed by TRAVIS Knight, Mike Sunders handed me an official knick pissed on by Vin Baker pair of shorts still in the the bio-hazard bag, and Danny Whelan got liquerd up, told my parents he was also a priest and I showered with him I the visitors locker room! Top that!
