FILE AS INSTANCE 48 of not really understanding that this isn't saying 'omg look at this! it's a number! all ur opinions are wrong! LISTEN TO THIS NUMBER! NUMBERS VS OPINIONS! ULTIMATE SHOWDOWN!".

Stop wanting every article to be a prophecy, and enjoy the numbers; they are a different way of explaining and talking about the sport/team you love.
