When I get bored, I do stuff. In this case, it's trying to see which teams on The Amazing Race are the best, using statistics to get the job done. In this case, it's adding up a team's placements, then dividing them by the number of legs run. For added nerdiness, I subtract the best and worst placements, then divide for the adjusted results because damn it, I am such a damn geek.
I know . . . the 23rd season doesn't kick off until September 29, but it's either copy and paste stuff I calculated months ago, or pick through the train wreck that I imagine Survivor: Blood Vs. Water will be . . . and brother, it's gonna be a train wreck. With 22 contestants that I've never heard of before, I'd say The Amazing Race will be the more bearable viewing experience.
