We've all heard ex-jocks provide analysis (with and without stats) that's
less insightful than what you or I mumble at the TV while watching a game.
Some ex-players are able to use their experience to explain what happened
on the field, and some non-players are able to enlighten us as well.

If you want to claim that there's way too much time on sports networks
being filled by talking heads with uninteresting opinions, I won't argue.
