Very true. YET, there are many out there playing races by doing 'calculations' of data that claim they not only are successful BUT also know the game.

So, why wouldn't I know more about these sports by crunching data than the guys spending 20 hours a day in the film room or those out there scouting the opposition? Imagine all the money that these franchises could save by emulating the PA model.
