SI is full of predictions <<<<

And most of those predictions are wrong. <<<<<

aaahh yes, but nobody can predict the future, why are you so surprised at this to make a whole thread about it, bored? -lol-

technical or statistical analysis based on past behavior (it is well documented that human 'and especially crowd' behavior is prone to repeatability and habit), attempts to identify trends and/or extreme anomalies that give you better than average statistical odds.

given that only 1/100 of 1% of the Screen Actors Guild ever acts in an Oscar nominated film, or about the same percent of college football players every play in an NFL playoff game.

WHY WHY WHY, would you think that SI would be a hotbed of market mavens and gooroos that could give you every twist and turn and prediction of the future, AND FOR FREE AT THAT -LOL-

and while were at it, would you like me to disrobe the emperor with the links of a few of your incredibly bad big picture "predictions"? =g=
