In Response To: Does everybody here know this? (Phil Simborg)

For the benefit of readers who are literally minded and have trouble parsing the language of Murat the non-troll (a.k.a. Jack Mack) and/or Phil:

Murat the non-troll, in effect, wants to bet that the PR difference between two players A and B is an imperfect indication of the probability that A beats B. This is what I claim that "everybody knows" and that nobody is interested in betting against.
