If you have been following this blog, you know that my picks are legit and that I am giving you solid picks, better than most professionals, for FREE.<BR/><BR/>The decision to support the model post week 4 or post week 5 is somewhat arbitrary. Coming into this season, I did not know when a good time would be to start because last year, I was still fixing bugs until week 9. <BR/><BR/>Most of us were "using" the picks after week 3 of this year. You can accuse me of data snooping since after the fact that the model picked up well some trends on week 5, I decided to make the rule that starting week 5, the model is "useable". <BR/><BR/>If you do not like the stats on the top right of the page, please feel free to remove 5 wins and a loss and recalculate.<BR/><BR/>JaimeJaimehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16907581331686653661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580227844881123874.post-50695034949599018192008-10-22T10:36:00.000-05:002008-10-22T10:36:00.000-05:00I too feel this is a misrepresentation of the accuracy of the model. You clearly have developed a robust predictive model, but we need to maintain the integrety of this site by potraying the results accurately. I couldnt agree more with the two previous posts, please adjust the results to properly represent results post week #5.Trustthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17785564111621185514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580227844881123874.post-81047231119930002842008-10-21T02:17:00.000-05:002008-10-21T02:17:00.000-05:00I agree with anthony. Since you have been saying all year your model kicks in after wk5, then wk 5 should not be included in ATS on front page. You even specifically said during week 5 NOT to use those picks.<BR/><BR/>While I really support your efforts and enjoy your site, adjusting your front page to now say "ats after week 4" so you can include that 5-1 week #5 in your overall results is typical in the industry and smells fishy to me. You aren't charging for picks so just keep it REAL.Kimhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07405977335088702389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8580227844881123874.post-46648442878539654922008-10-20T09:45:00.000-05:002008-10-20T09:45:00.000-05:00your post week 5 stats on the top right of the page should only include week 6 and 7 picks? right now they include week 5.Anthonyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01893723952154438220noreply@blogger.com
