I notice you keep avoiding my question...perhaps it's because the answer doesn't jive with your agenda.
Part of my faith in their system revolves around who uses their numbers. Top media, teams, players. There must be something behind it if people closest to the game find it useful. bob, if you had a proprietary formula that is your bread and butter would you post it out there for free so anyone could use it? Doubtful. They outline their methodology extensively on their site.
It's not perfect, as they freely admit. What it provides is an idea of how well someone performed throughout the game. If you want to argue that a -3.0 is not 10% worse than a -2.7, I'll grant you that argument. Don't get too hung up on the specifics. I use it to validate what I saw on the field...and it usually does that.
how do you know "top media, teams, players" use it?
