Fuld defined a clutch hitter as one who hits better at more important moments.

[/ QUOTE ] so, what he did was use data and applly it to his definition of a clutch hitter.

How did this crap even get printed?

[/ QUOTE ]

Is there another,generally accepted, defination that you would prefer?

Gay. A lot of people mentioned on how the hot tub was getting old, so I decided this would be a good substitute. Me = wrong?

[/ QUOTE ]how about we use a definition which that doesn't rely on completely objective situations to define it?

It would be kinda hard to do a statistical analysis with a subjective definition. I wonder how many people back in the 1800's said "Some moron has decided taht cretain situations count as at bats, and other cituations ount as hits, and he has created a statistic called batting avereage based on his own definitons. How does this crap even get printed?"

Fine, I'll continue my quest for a new one. The point remains in tact though, posting about poker in OOT = the gay.

your example is horrible. One can easily define what an at bat is, and what a hit is. Defining what a big moment is, is simply ridiculous. two people could have completely different definitions for a big moment.
