The 2020 Falcons are mathematical proof that win probability statistics are fake

This is the fourth game that the Falcons have had a 95% win probability and gone on to lose the game so they are mathematical proof that statistics aren't real. Using statistics, we can now prove that stats are fake.

The Rays are playing an exciting brand of baseball

It's a very, very exciting brand of baseball. And I'm gonna miss it when it's over. So I did not wanna sweep, so thank you.
