No. It has to with a dumb statistical bias.


It actually doesn't have to do with the weighting you describe. He does it weighted, unweighted, and with a "removed bad teams" method.

The problem is Sagarin, like many staticians, doesn't understand what he is modeling well enough to construct a competent model.
