To Punt, Or Not To Punt?
My college roommate and I have long held, without rigorous empirical evidence, that NFL coaches punt way too often. This week's Tuesday Morning Quarterback makes that case and even backs it with some non-trivial evidence derived from a 2005 David Romer paper. This is by no means an airtight argument, but it's sound eno...
Let me also say that Easterbrook doesn't even throw on to the pile one of the considerations in favor of a much more aggressive fourth down strategy -- it would make defending third down situations harder. One major structural advantage the offense has is, of course, that the defense doesn't know what play the offense ...

Halftime: Stealth Sign that S&P Wants to Break Higher?
Again on Wednesday, investors were struggling with the market’s next big move as the S&P 500 wavered near a seven-week high but on low volume.
Lately stocks have struggled around 1333, a level closely monitored by technicians because it represents a doubling from the low reached in March 2009.
If the S&P can close above that level technical investors may consider it a breakout, and it could trigger a new round of buying.
However, the rapidly approaching earnings season may present some serious headwinds.
"Next week it kicks off,” says Jack Ablin, chief investment officer of Harris Private Bank, “and that to me is a wild card. Costs have gone up (yet) analysts continue to ratchet profit expectations higher."
Do the bulls have enough mojo to push stocks higher? What should you be watching?
Pete Najarian has spotted a stealth sign in the options market that he considers bullish. According to the Pit Boss, a larger than usual volume of calls have been trading in the Russia ETF.
Upside bets in the RSX may seem extremely stealth, but Najarian explains that the ETF is largely made up of energy and materials companies. He takes the action as a sign of increased demand generated by stronger global growth.
And as confirmation of his bullish bias, he adds, investors are now making similar bets on the commodities heavy Brazil ETF.
”Activity is all looking to the upside,” says Najarian. “It all plays into global growth,” he says. In other words he thinks we’re seeing growing BRIC economies and as a result we should also see a rising stock market.
Trader Steve Cortes is far more cautious. Although emerging markets are doing well, he reminds the Fast Money desk that industrial metals are not confirming the gains, and that may be a problem. To illustrate his point, he says copper is still down on the year.
“I think China tightening is impactful.” In other words, he thinks a China slow down will ripple across markets. He’s looking to short copper as well as short Ford.
Although he remains bullish, Najarian concedes to Kelly’s point. “True, $4 gas is a problem for consumers,” he says.
Precious metals ticked lower in afternoon trade, however gold touched a new intra-day record earlier in the session.
Brian Kelly is sticking with what’s working. I’m long gold and long silver and I’ll remains long gold and silver,” he says.
The traders also have Smithfield on the radar after the company said it was in talks to acquire a majority stake in European meat producer Campofrio Food Group for $715 million. The move would increase Smithfield's presence in Europe.
BB&T analyst Heather Jones tells us she’s long-term bullish on Smithfield though feels the deal is a short-term negative. Get all the details. Watch the video now!

The Estonian government decided at its Thursday Cabinet meeting to support the country's participation at the World Expo in Dubai in 2020.
"According to the Cabinet decision, to cover the costs related to the participation in the expo in 2019, €1 million will be earmarked in the the government reserve intended for a specific purpose, while €1 million to cover the costs related to participation in the expo in 2020 will be set out in the national budget str...
Minister of Entrepreneurship and Information Technology Rene Tammist (SDE) described the Cabinet's nod to participation in the expo as an investment decision important for Estonia, which will be of great benefit for the people of Estonia and not just the companies taking part in it.
"By taking part in the expo, we will be creating a bridge that could allow us to double our exports to the countries of the Gulf, increasing it by approximately €75 million," he said. "That would bring an estimated €15 million back into our treasury in tax revenue."
For the private sector, participation in the expo is important primarily for the establishment of business contacts and finding export opportunities, which is why the leading role in organising participation in the Dubai Expo is in the hands of private-sector companies, he added.
"The private sector's readiness to make a contribution to participating in the expo demonstrates a clear wish and need of business operators to take part in the expo," Tammist said. "Such partnership in joint marketing between the state and business operators is very common in the Nordic countries."
He also added that the country being permanently represented in the region will likewise ensure follow-up activities to the expo, which will help ensure that participation in the expo was not a one-off action, and that ties established there would persist.
Participation in the Dubai Expo will be organised by a consortium of private companies under an agreement to be concluded between the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications and the Estonian Association of Information Technology and Telecommunications (ITL). Under the agreement, the consortium to be established...
Support for Estonia's participation in the expo has been expressed in recent weeks by the National Defence Committee of the Riigikogu, ITL and the Estonian Service Industry Association. Support has also previously been voiced by the Association of Tourism Industry and the Estonian Defence Industry Association (EDIA).
Estonia's exports to the United Arab Emirates (UAE) amounted to €45.3 million in 2015 and €54.5 million in 2016. In 2017, exports totalled €67.9 million and imports €8.3 million. At least 50 Estonian businesses are constantly active on the market there.
The UAE has sent Estonia a formal invitation to take part in the World Expo in Dubai in 2020, which will be held from 20 October 2020 through 10 April 2021. The global expo is held every five years; the most recent was held in Milan in 2015.

The Dayton Valley Blue Devils Junior Pee Wee Pop Warner football team is heading to the Snow Bowl.
Dayton scored 26 unanswered points on its way to a 39-25 win over South Tahoe on Saturday at Dayton Valley Junior High. With the playoff win, Dayton (8-1) advanced to its Snow Bowl Championship Game on Friday at Sparks’ Don Mello Sports Complex.
Timmy Doyle gained 141 yards on seven carries and scored on touchdown runs of 27, 46, 60 and 2 yards for Dayton. Johnny Pollack also rushed for 158 yards on 11 carries and scored on a 68-yard run.
Dayton trailed 13-0 when Doyle scored on the last play of the first quarter, running 27 yards for the touchdown on fourth and eight. Pollack ran it in for the extra point to make it 13-7.
Doyle later scored on a 46-yard run to cut the deficit to 19-7. It appeared that Dayton scored near the end of the first half when Pollack attempted a screen pass to Doyle.
The play was originally ruled a lateral and Doyle ran 74 yards for the score, but the play was called back. Pollack, though, scored on his 68-yard run moments later to cut the halftime deficit to 25-19.
Doyle’s 60-yard scoring run and Pollack’s run for the extra point gave Dayton a 26-25 lead. Doyle then scored on a 2-yard run and Pollack ran it in for the extra point to make it 33-25.
Dayton went on to execute the fumblerooski to put the game away. Center Vincent Ortiz snapped the ball to quarterback Alex Cupp and Cupp gave the ball back to Ortiz, who scored on a 53-yard run to make it 39-25.
Kyle Firestone sealed the win when he returned an interception inside the South Tahoe 25-yard line. Bryan Thomas also caused a fumble and recovered a fumble for Dayton.
Abadan is a small town built by the British on one of the largest oil reservoir in Iran. It was considered the most beautiful city in the country, but that was before the Iran-Iraq war. I had only seen pictures of that Abadan, now it no longer looks like the pictures I had seen.
Although, many years have passed since the war, still there are many buildings bearing evidence of enemy artillery. Also evident is the art deco architecture used in many of the houses and some buildings. There are still lines of Miami-esque style houses that once belonged to English and American personnel stationed he...
One thing is still the same: the poor are still poor and they all have the same complaint, they live in the richest part of Iran and yet they have never benefited from oil revenues. Today Abadan has the highest number runaway girls in the country and is only second to Tehran in the number of orphaned children.
Last time I wrote we were in Khorramabad. From there we drove north to Boroujerd, then west to Kermanshah. There, in our hotel dining room I met a few UNHCR personnel on their way to the refugee camps at the Iraqi border. That was before the State of the Union speech by President Bush and just over a week after the ant...
As I sit in my hotel room looking across Arvad Rud (Shat al Arab) toward Iraqi territory less than a hundred meters away, I cannot help but imagine what might happen in a couple of weeks. How their fate is separated from ours only because they live on the wrong side of the river. But then again maybe there isn't a...
Even still as I look at the palm trees on both sides swinging in the wind, it's hard to imagine a bloodbath, it's hard to imagine war. If their lives were at all similar to their neighbors on this side of the river, it's too difficult to fathom they have yet to live through another war.
In our journey we have visited extraordinary children fighting against all odds to avoid becoming another victim of poverty, just like everyone else they know. In Chaman, a small community in deep poverty on the outskirts of Kermanshah, we were mobbed by single mothers begging for us to rescue their children.
One woman threw herself in front of our minivan and shoved her daughter's report card and identification papers under our wipers. Her daughter's name was Zahra and she had all A's. Today we were filming in a public bath in the center of Abadan. Once a famous bathhouse, it's been out of business for ...
Along with an older sister, they lived in one of the bath stalls. Finally last year The Child Foundation helped Fatemeh find a sponsor. The sponsor has helped her family rent a little home and pays them a monthly allowance.
I am still shaken by the conditions in which they lived. I could not live there for a week, Fatemeh was raised there since before she could walk.

Google is gearing up to bring millions of more Indians online next year.
Google and state-run internet service provider RailTel will push their free Wi-Fi internet to another 100 railway stations in India next year, said Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu.
Google and RailTel partnered earlier this year and announced plans to bring free internet to 400 railway stations across India. The two announced last week that their Wi-Fi service has reached the 100th railway station in the country.
Prabhu said the plan is to "double" the number of railway stations that have free Wi-Fi by the end of next year. He added that more trains will also be getting internet access. “The objective is to have Wi-Fi facility in all railway stations in small cities and towns,” he added.
Some media reports today suggested that 200 more railway stations will be getting free Wi-Fi next year. A source at Google, however, clarified that it’s indeed 100 more stations that will be getting the free Wi-Fi next year.
Google’s initiative, which it has previously described as the "largest public Wi-Fi project in the world", is chugging along very smoothly in India.
The company said last week that over 5 million people in the country were latching on its free internet service every month, adding that it was seeing 15,000 new users access the internet for the first time in their lives every day.
