Statistical Anomaly Trivia and Question

[mavskidd02]

Guess what folks-we have not one but two sets of scores/numbers which may qualify.
The bad news is that these particular numbers don't come up until Saturday, and I don't know whether they would still qualify after two and one half days of waiting.
Anyways, I was watching scores on Espn.com on two NBA games, the San Antonio/Dallas game and the Houston/Utah games.
At precisely the same moment I saw the score of 85-83 for both games.
Then later, I saw scores of 93-88 for both games flashed at the same time.
I haven't checked the teams for these numbers yet, but did a quick scan and noticed that these numbers don't appear on Thursday or Friday;obviously with the shitload of games on Saturday, they will probably appear at least once on that day.
Stay tuned, and remember, "Your next easy winner is just a glance away."

I don't know Savage this seems like a tough call

Don't want to make it more complex-but I saw two college scores tied at 57-51 at precisely the same time tonight.
Maybe 51 and 57 would be better to play tomorrow because they are more current than the other numbers which occurred on Wednesday night.
Have to think about this one.

You can play the numbers if you want, however, I don't think this qualifies for the system for one reason.
Scores on the Internet are not always up to the second, so these scores may not have been the same at the same time. One team may have scored a bucket, and espn had just not updated it yet. The thing here is, we can't be sure if these teams numbers were together at the same time.

But a halftime, like we had in the previous two situations, means, without a doubt, these scores were the same at the time. I think the system should be limited to finals, halftimes, and quarters only, not any point during the game, because numbers change far too often to be sure they were the same.

However, this is your system ( i can't believe we take this so seriously ) and its completely up to you.

Good point-I probably won't play any of the numbers tomorrow UNLESS they seem like goodm plays based on other factors also.
I will of course keep score and see how they do to see if the "system" applies to partial scores in the middle of periods.

I bet if I keep actual records of these plays(probably won't) for any significant period of time, they will surpass probably 75%+ of the paid cappers out there who use more traditional methods of handicapping.

LOL, the "paid handicappers" probably use methods quite similar to this, as most of them don't play their own games, get paid regardless, and could care less whether they win or lose, because either way they get paid

The key numbers of 51, 57, 83, 85, 88 and 93 actually did quite well this weekend hitting around 70-75%.
However, I think that will even out over time;I am just going to stick to same scores at the end of quarters, halfs and the games itself and then confine plays to the next day or so.

Thanks-I was busy and didn't look yesterday. It appears Notre Dame and Ohio fit the criterion.
We alread know about ND from the other day, and Ohio is going on now.
