LoveTheBobby 1 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 (edited) Little Jeff did a similar medal table on Look North last night for' NE & Cumbria' after interviewing the rower lassie from Smog . I can't remember where we stood though as I rarely listen to him . Edited August 7, 2012 by LoveTheBobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 14584 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Goldie Sayers and Phillips Odowu were both injured recently and didnt qualify for their finals this morning, both had a good cance of a medal, gold in Odowu's case. Add them to the monumental tactical fuck up that was the men's road race last weekend and our medal table couldve looked even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34425 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 Brownlee's 10k was only 1minute 23 seconds slower than Farah's. That is a mind blowing stat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, when you think they have done a 1.5k swim and a 43km bike ride I think it is AND he isnt just a 10km runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 34425 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 I don't mind a stat or two. Freakonomics is a good read, but the thought of driving to work with some Spengler in my ear reeling off numbers.... Dunno about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveTheBobby 1 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 You should listen to the Radio 4 Statistics podcast Not being funny but saw you mention it somewhere else and wondered how it's laid out . What is the format of it ? Is it like a meatfeast pizza but with stats replacing meat ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's basically a news show which picks up MPs and other news shows on the bollocks they spout and corrects reports that have not understood the numbers. If you read and enjoyed Bad Science then it's a more maths based version of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read and enjoyed Bad Science then it's a more maths based version of that. Ah right, didn't realise was specialised in that respect. Anything picking up and interpreting political stats for the horseshit they are is good with me . Regarding Bad Science, to date and to my shame, I've more of a familiarity with Weird Science .

For no rational reason it actually makes me angry watching that shit . It's possibly the pomposity of it , could even be something as trivial as the way their heads wobble with a tophat . I'm not sure yet . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
