Read the whole article. He's absolutely right. By the way, he is only urging self-respecting statistical analysts to boycott, because the media and BCS blames them, dicks them over and changes the rules anytime the computer rankings give them a result that doesn't jibe with who they would LIKE to see in the BCS championship.

Considering the fact that nearly everytime OU has been to the BCS championship it has been thanks to the ostensibly unbiased computer rankings (which are always promptly tweaked the next season), OU fans should agree with pretty much everything he says. The system is broken, and dishonest.
