What are your other two data sources? I don’t want to go back through hundreds of pages to find it and am eager to have raw data on this subject.

Not my problem.. maybe use google or something.
You are so smart, you will figure something out.
You did post the graph from FSU that proved the medium guy was so far off base that it proved our point. Was there something else? Something with data?
Sure was....But as the FSU link said it doesnt include a huge amount of data.
There was another link you just refused to pay attention to it.
Whats funny is I acknowledged the Medium flaw way back, I even acknowledged it way before when that info was posted months ago, and noted it many times. I even agreed with you many times that it was flawed. You know way before you joined......supposedly.
But you continue to argue and continue to try to say Sports media watch is a good source. Because you cant admit that having a minimum amount of data is just as bad as counting minimum data as 0.
Anyway, done arguing with You.
It goes well beyond sample size. The guy is taking data from 3 games and dividing it by 12 games instead of dividing it by 3 games, dropping their actual average of 1,055,000 to 264,000.
Sure, I'd love to see what their viewership looks like if they played all of their games on networks that report numbers, but I doubt it would drop their 1,055,000 actual average by any more than 100,000-200,000. It definitely won't drop them to the 264,000 viewership G5 program that they were labeled as by some.
So on Monday of this week you were using the flawed data from the medium website to make a point that you allegedly said was flawed months ago. THE SPORTS MEDIA WEBSITE IS WHERE THE MEDIUM GUY GOT HIS NUMBERS!!!
My god....what is it with you guys. I acknowledged it is flawed, and not correct.
How many times do I have to say that. Maybe reading comprehension is difficult for some.
Jesus.
But Sports media watch does not have enough data to be correct too. My god.
Yup you are right they both suck.
As I have said from the beginning.
Goodbye, thank god for ignore.
We will leave it alone when you say the sports media guy is posting numbers. The medium guy took those numbers and construed them in a way that wasn’t factual. And people here said “well look at this”. Including you. Maybe even me. But the sports media guy has data. The medium guy is the only one flawed.
They both don’t suck. Only the guy who bastardizes the data sucks
Dang. I’m sorry you ignored. We were almost there. One site posted
data that was available. We agreed. Then one guy analyzed the incomplete data set. We agreed saying its conclusions were wrong. Then you made conclusions on that incomplete analysis. People called you out. You cancelled
Didn't Johnny Orr once say nothing good happens after midnight? I'm pretty sure he was talking about realignment/viewership discussions in 2023....
I KNOW. LONG. But, heck it was fun to write...
From the hindsight seat, this is how I saw things played out:
Texas: Sweet deal we have with LHN. Largest $$$ of any school
ESPN: Not so fast. We screwed up giving you that deal cause it's not panning out for us. Expect a dramatic cut in LHN revenue next round. BUT, we have a better idea. We'll foot you, not quite as much, but more than this conference if you move over to SEC, but only if you get OK to come with you. That way we can dissolve the B12 conference, make SEC even more profitable, and get other B12 brands to the SEC for a song after they disband.
Texas: How much we talking about?
ESPN: You had your chance with LHN, but because you sucked during this time, we couldn't get the revenue we expected from it. So, we hold all the cards here now. Don't worry. You'll still get a big paycheck. Just not as much as the LHN.
Texas: Crap. Hey Oklahoma, have we got a deal for you.
A&M: WHAT? Psssst. B12. Guess what's brewing?
B12: WHAT? Hey Houston, UCF, Cinci, and BYU. Have we got a deal for you.
ESPN: For crying out loud. This whole thing is backfiring. But, we still hold the cards. Well played B12. Plan B. Let's try the same thing with the P12.
ESPN: Hey Fox, let's face it. Our budgets were blown on the B1G/SEC contracts. But, here's our plan which works out for both of us.
P12: C'mon guys. We're worth more than that.
ESPN: Hey B12, we gave you that sweet deal for other P5 teams for a reason. Now use it.
Fox: We want to help you B12, but we're too busy onboarding the bigger P12 brands to our B1G plan.
B12: Hey CO, you've been bleeding $$$$ since the P12. You just extended yourself for Prime. You NEED the money. And, you're a crucial piece in ESPNs master plan.
CO: Not a bad idea. Ok!
B12: Hey AZ. CO is going to move, so best for you to get discussions going now so you, too, can have full share.
AZ: We are SOOO on board for this cause we likey your basketball league
B12: Hey UT and ASU. You're so screwed. But, hey, we're nice guys. We've ponied up from the other members to bring you in on equal shares.
UT and ASU: Grrrrrrrr. But hell. We have no choice.
Oklahoma: 11:00am kickoffs? WAHAAAAAAAAA!
Texas: Georgia, Alabama, Auburn, LSU, and Florida in the same season? WAHAAAAAAAA!
B12: Ohhhh BOYS. Basketball is being broken out now. $$$ gap shrinking. Our parity is selling more. Networks likey likey.
No kidding.
You wouldnt think a 20k post thread could get hijacked, but here we are with 3 pages of "I know you are, but what am I?"
If I was a mod doing that would be a 30 day ban for both.
Man, I would be thrilled to bag a 7, 2-8's, and a 9, even if there are some stikeouts in there.
For me to do that, there would be a lot of strikeouts. I'm not rich enough to do even the 7.
