"Beating the odds and battling through prejudices fuel my desire to show the world who we can become when we seize the day." -Cindy Ouellet "It has nothing to do with the physique you want or not. My body simply helps me accomplish what I want. It's important to be well in your body. That people feel the right to judge the bodies of others is ridiculous." - "She releases the ball "Bria Hartley "Your passion "Watching "[Red Hook] is totally different from all of the things I've done. You don't have brakes. You don't have gears. You go fast. It's a little scary because you can crash and 50 other people can crash into you. But I like the feeling and sensation." -Francisca Campos The National League West is looking like the National League Best with three teams fighting for that first place spot and the other two looking good for a wild card. It definitely looks like these teams are going on long win streaks, but our investigation will see if they are actually streaky teams. How to find out if they are streaky or not: Put the order of wins and losses in a column (I use a simulation for this) and then see how many streaks of 5 or more are in there since it is above 50 games. In the simulation if over 5% of the dots suggest they could have a high number of streaks above 5 wins, then they are not streaky. Rockies Streaky?: Nope. They are way above the percentage for being streaky. Diamondbacks Streaky?: Nope. They are also above 5% for streaks of 5 wins or longer.
"One time, I got hit by a lineman, and I flew. Another time, in practice, one of the boys was mad at me, and he hit me hard. He knocked the wind out of me, but I got back up." -Zia Cooke "It's still a bit surprising that it took an act of Congress to kick-start the athletic equality movement, but it sure did work. Title IX is why I am an Olympian and it's why the women of Team USA continue to earn the most medals at the Olympic Games." -Joan Benoit Samuelson |
AuthorHi, I'm Jenna and I'm a sports fan! I've been avidly watching sports since 2011 because I found that by watching sports, I would be able to communicate with my dad and brother better. Ever since I got into sports, I've been able to enjoy myself more when I go to sporting events with my family. Archives
