    Against the Dodgers we need every advantage we can get.

    It's important to have independent verification when something like that happens

    I have rescinded my Thanks given to the TOTALLY FAKE LINEUP in the OP.

    I would like to let the Commissioner's Office know that I am participating in tonight's gamethread, but under protest.

    Screw that noise. You keep up the good work.
    You are kicking ass. With our bullpen, we need all the vulgarity you can muster.

    I dont want the team to win under these circumstances...it would taint the whole season...i hope Snit orders the pen to give up whatever number of runs are necessary to avoid winning

    Sorry to be pedantic but I think you mean ascertainment bias

    You don’t want to be the first person there; need to let the vibe settle.

    I don't view being pedantic as a negative. I am not knowledgeable enough in this area to come close to that characteristic so when others demonstrate these qualities it gives me an opportunity to learn.

    Back to your point - I don't see how ascertainment is more applicable to this scenario than confirmation. Please explain.

    Quit being pejorative.
    Focus on imperatives:
    Mutts should be eviscerated
    GDT should have correct lineup
    Blackjack democrat- while brilliant, is a an ass
    GDT is in hot streak - do not screw with a streak
    I got Jobu some more rum and another Bucket of KFC.

    Ascertainment bias arises due to flaws in data collection.

    Confirmation bias arises because the person interpreting the data has a tendency to emphasize those data points that confirm his or her beliefs.

    In looking at your initial statement more carefully, perhaps I was mistaken and confirmation bias might be the right term.
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."
