Exciting Stats...

I'm really excited about some statistical analysis I have been working on for the past couple of days so I want to preview it before I actually post it.

I've heard from a lot of fans lately that youth and age are "no excuse for losing". So the question is... do the facts support that? Does the Age of a team have a strong correlation to the number of points a team gets? a weak correlation? no significant correlation?

Perhaps age is important... it just isn't that important.

The answer comes later today.

Looking forward to seeing the outcome. It would be nice to see the relationship from the younger players on an older team.

You can look at it two ways, an older team can help the younger players grow faster but then again a younger team gives more of a chance to play. In any case numbers are fun to look at.
