Think about it though.. if they played 30 games, winning 15 would be ".500". That team won 5 more, so they are 5 games over .500. if you think otherwise your dumb and should enroll at Mississippi State or something.


You ae only adding the wins. By taking away losses you get further from .500

They only had 10 losses, not 15 which puts you further from .500 the same way a win does if you are counting from the 15-15 number.


You are really starting from 10-10 and adding 10 wins. Or you could start from 20-0 and add 10 losses.

I tried explaining it that way, to no response - but I was less articulate.
