Re: Study sees racial bias in calling fouls

I applaud those who actually took the time to read the report. As I said in the original post, my initial reaction was skepticism too: it just doesn't seem likely that the study could have taken into account all the myriad factors. But the more you read, the more you realize how many factors were actually considered.
Having said that, I'm not ready to conclude the study is valid or invalid. I just think it's ridiculous to dismiss the findings outright, as so many (here and in the media) are doing, without actually bothering to read the damn thing.

honestly, most people would take an entire day to read through the paper and even gain a basic grasp of what is going on in the paper
i don't want to come off as condescending, but it's above their current skill set.
