Haberstroh wrote an article about CP3 and Foster on his substack but he tweeted out this stat and it’s astounding.

reddit wants me to add more thoughts so I’ll just add that Scott Foster is closely tied with a corrupt gambling ref and shouldn’t have been allowed to officiate for the last 20 years.

Foster is the official who received 134 phone calls from disgraced referee Tim Donaghy between October 2006 and April 2007, as originally reported by FOX News. That was the same period during which Donaghy admitted to betting on NBA games. The report said that Donaghy called Foster more than any other ref and that he didn’t call any other official more than 13 times.

      I can’t tell if you’re serious but you do realize the statistical method you’re using works with events with an ACTUAL 75% chance of occurring and you’re using it to apply to scenarios where betting markets or journalists think it’s a 75 chance right? Those aren’t the same thing and it means you can’t just blindly do a binomial distribution and declare it proof of match fixing lol.
