I don't know about this Excel solver thing but I spent the majority of 2000 - 2005 in studying econometrics in undergrad and grad school using SAS, Stata, and Matlab to develop all kinds of linear and nonlinear regression models. And I use absolutely none of it in my job today. It gave me one heck of a solid foundation in terms of thinking analytically and finding innovative ways to answer questions with available data, but I haven't modeled a damn thing since 2007. And I sure as poo don't miss it. What are you studying?

Well I'm doing a bachelors of science in CS with a concentration in security. Also have enough ECO for a minor in economics. Don't really know why the fug we are doing regression analytics as a requirements, but it sucks and I'd throw my book in a firepit if I couldn't sell it back. Good stuff to know, but blah, fug that class.

    • I don’t go back and look at the espn but there live it definitely said 1 shot 1 goal when it happened. I guess they had not added them yet. Still allowing goals that early is rough. Blue line is a total disaster still. Even with Slavin back. Miller and Nikishin keep making mistakes after mistakes. 
    • I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.
