Chicken or egg?

@tabouchadi They’re wonderful, Tarik. I use them in my post-graduate course on Analytical Politics and Policymaking in Europe.

Ei schau mal @chbiermann was die Post heute gebracht hat. Freu mich auf die Lektüre – gespannt wie’n Flitzebogen!

Just for the fun of it: since it’s the 2022 #StatsBombConferenceI thought it’d be fun to share what you could call the current @MLS Moneyball charts (salary data courtesy of @AnalysisEvolved). (To help w reading, I’ve circled the “good” quadrant)

Wow. Can't believe the forensic work that went into unearthing this. Thanks, guys - amazing walk down memory lane. 🙏 (cc @srudd_ok)

@DaveLaidig 😉 Dying for coaches to be less conservative and more innovative. Innovation not typically rewarded in the game (because risky). Fear of looking foolish is a strong deterrent.

Love this

Thrilled this study w/ my great colleague @sarahobolt has found a terrific home at @WEPsocial. We examine the politics of face coverings - specifically, people's willingness to comply with UK govt advice to wear masks. Many thanks to the @BritishAcademy_ for supporting our work.

Amazing story

Fun and informative piece if you're into data analysis in football (and understanding a bit of its history).

@essobecker @MonashBusiness Fantastisch und völlig verdient. Glückwunsch, Sascha!

Across the country, parents are putting their children to bed, reading stories, singing lullabies—and in the back of their minds, they’re worried about what might happen tomorrow after they drop their kids off at school, or take them to a grocery store or any other public space.

@ee2go @LSEEI Thanks! 🙏 (Wenn die Prümer in die weite Welt ziehen ...)
