So that means their statistical analysis is invalid? I have never designed or built an airplane but that doesn't mean I can't rank/critique airlines.

I hate the "you can't have opinion if you didn't play the sport perspective." I wouldn't want Popovich as a player, but I would sure want him as a coach

That being said, there are some unnecessarily subjective aspects of PFF's ratings that limit the validity; however, I think it's still useful and interesting.

You should speak the the Soldier boy worshippers who attack anyone with an opinion about military matters who "hasnt served".


McCoy is wrong for going personal, but It can be a bit annoying when someone can't do your job attempts to tell you how to do it or critique you.

I'm a bit torn on this. It gets old hearing some dinosaur columnist rank everyone on his eyetest. Yet, it's also annoying to have people just run to WAR/VORP/QBR/whatever in evaluating players.

PFF is a bunch of bullshite so he's right about that. It has nothing to do with them having never played football though.
