Mr Davis Posted January 10, 2015 Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 If I COULD FIX 1 THING IT WOULD BE THE BOOKKEEPING ON THE STATS FROM TEAM TO TEAM!!! I HAVE WATCHED SEVERAL TEAMS BLOGGERS COACHES AND NEWS REPORTERS FABRICATE STATS BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A SYSTEM IN PLACE TO TRULY GUAGE THE STATS!!! I HAVE SEEN A KID GET 3 INT'S IN 1 GAME AND THE NEWS PAPER REPORT THAT HE HAD 2 ALL YEAR. I WATCH A KID THROW 4 PICS IN TWO GAMES AND COACHES SAY THAT HE ONLY HAS 2. I HAVE ASLO WATCHED A KID PLAY JUST 3 QUARTERS OF THE 1ST TWO GAMES AND GET 6 SACKS BUT KNOW ONE KNEW THE CORRECT #. LAST BUT NOT LEAST I RECENTLY WATCHED A REPORTER CUT A RUNNING BACKS CARRIES IN HALF(83c<179c)!!! I COULD CARE LESS BUT THESE KIDS DESERVE BETTER!!! WE ALL ENJOY SEEING THEM LAY IT ON THE LINES EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT AND IT IS TIME TO GET SOMEONE TO ACCURATELY REPORT THE STATS ON A WEEKLY BASIS!!!

prepballfan Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Are you saying they intentionally reduced or added to the stats or are you saying they did not know so they just put something down as opposed to just not having a stat? Ill be honest with you I have been doing some stat research lately for a project and I have found the stats from several locations and they have all been with in a few yards from each other.

Gabe Posted January 11, 2015 Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Do you realize what it takes to keep stats in a game? Come join me next year in the box for two up tempo teams. Not only do the reporters keep stats, we also are tweeting and updating websites on top of answering calls and texts all night. Its not as fun as you think. We don't have instant replay. Sometimes best we can hope for is scoreboard to be right on the yard lines and the best is if another reporter is there to help each other out. Most of us do help each other. Can't speak for the very few who dont keep stats at all and then expect others to hand em out. Im not a good person to ask stats from if.thats the case because chances are the stats i give a freeloader will not be right. We do best we can man. Games end around 1030 at times and we have stories to file and stats to add up sometimes in under an hour. One game this year i was so far off wasn't funny but alot played into that. Was working from on a bus. Only light was from my cell. No internet service so i was nervous how id get story in. No phone service so couldnt call office. It equaled a terrible story and stats. Beauty of it is, my mistakes didn't change outcome. I chalked it up to bad night and moved on. So dont go thinking we do things just to skip corners. Its a challenge. Once a mom called the monday after a game and griped me out for 10 mins cause her baby had 145 rushing.and i penned him for only 120. I let her vent before saying "Sorry i cost him that scholarship to USC." NDOMAKONG, prepballfan and Hornet71 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Davis Posted January 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Hey Guys I Did Not Say One Way Are The Other!!! Also, I Did Not Ask For Excuses But Resolve!!! We Get On Here And Other Blogs And Contend That We Are Valid As SETX Football But We Can't Even Get The Stats Right. Let's Come Up With A Solution And Not Make A Mockery Of A Woman Who Is Probably Thinking That The Stat Keeper That's Not Able To Do Their Jobs To The Best Of Their Ability Are The Difference Between Going To College And Not!!! I Just Wanted To Start A Thread That I Thought That Needed Serious Attention!!! If It Is Fine With You That Are In Charge Of This Area Of SETX Football Well It Is Fine With Me!!! By All Means Keep Doing What You Are Doing!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabe Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I.told that story as a joke only. Problem you will run into is # of teams and number of people able to do the stats. There are official 6a 5a and 4a stats but even there not every coach turns them in each week. And coaches can side with their.players at times. A solution seems very hard to come up with. But i offer my services to try and help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WE ALL ENJOY SEEING THEM LAY IT ON THE LINES EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT AND IT IS TIME TO GET SOMEONE TO ACCURATELY REPORT THE STATS ON A WEEKLY BASIS!!! Who exactly have you seen fabricate stats? I could maybe see what a school statistician gets out of inflating stats, but what good is it for someone in the media to make a kid's stats look better? I know we try to get as many stats as possible for each team. They can email it to us, Orangefield still faxes us stuff! But at least they help out. Short of being at every team's game and taking every stat, how else will someone get unbiased stats? Maybe you can be the official SETX stats person. You say "Lets come up with a solution" but you didn't actually mention a solution. This isn't the NFL or NCAA who have official stat keepers. The teams that do keep stats and put them online regularly (I know Newton does, among others), thank you. But even if every team had an official stat keeper, how would you stop them from fudging stats here and there? Anytime I compare our stats with the News and Orange leader, there's rarely a huge disparity. prepballfan and Gabe 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 That was deleted. Straight forward crap talking that had zero context except to be rude doesnt fly with me. Let me assure you David Berry knows how to keep stats. Lets turn this thread from bashing to maybe coming up with ideas. Mr Davis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigcam2903 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 That's the reason he started the Thread; for solutions. A little venting on his part, but it doesn't take anything away from the point he brought up about Stats. How can SETX members help??

Gabe Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Stats from everyone, whomever found to do this, would need to be uniform. No point getting stats if dont get full stats from all teams. Heres copy our stat box and I know BE is similar.

Bigcam2903 Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Bro, seems like if you want accuracy, there must be a committee together to keep up with All of the Stats accurately;still room for error though. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prepballfan Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 I listen to the 92.5 Indians games and they attempt to keep stats. I heard them say on several occasions how difficult the task is. Teams like PNG who use a fast moving offense is even more difficult.

Gabe Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 my definition of foul is a guy talking crap on another guy and also on the job he does from behind a computer. actually there is another word for it but I don't even call my kitten that word NDOMAKONG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NDOMAKONG Posted January 12, 2015 Report Share Posted January 12, 2015 Question... Are You Hitting Shift At The Beginning Of Every Word, Or Do You Have A Special App For That? No college program is recruiting off stats, so it's cool to cut them out of the paper and put them in a scrap book, but not a big deal. Now if Uncle Rico's stats were kept more accurately, he woulda led em to the ship! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
