You don't have to be "fake proud" about anything. There's just no use in bashing his statistics - stats that everyone uses. I don't see any of your FIBA or SIERA or MSODFIU stats on MLB.com - which if we're going to be seeing those stats on the backs of baseball cards in 5 years I would assume they'd have them somewhere, right?

Maybe you don't mean to bash Mitchell, but that's how it comes off to almost everyone reading. You are terrible at arguing, which is unfortunate since it's your favorite past time even ahead of sabermetrics. Your goal seems to be to get people to buy in to this way of thinking about baseball. If that's the case, then have an introduction, body and conclusion of your thought process and why/how it matters rather than simply thinking we should all buy in and if we don't we are morons stuck in the 1960s.
