Ehh, I don't know the statistical significance and t-test and all that stuff, but it looks like there is a noticeable positive correlation between the percentage of homegrown players and overall wins, to me.  We are a ridiculous outlier in the sense that we have the most homegrown players and we are very low on the win percentage scale.

That sums it up, really...we are an outlier and we and the massive amount of white space between us and the next closest team plotted on that grid is pretty significant.  We are off on our own doing our own thing and it isn't leading to wins...go figure.

There is a positive correlation between wins and homegrown players, except for us where we have the most homegrown players and we are in the bottom tier of wins...that's interesting, if nothing else.  Basically, when other teams draft and retain players they win more and when we do it we win not so much.  Theoretically, we are doing something right but it isn't leading to wins like it does with other franchises which means we are doing something very wrong.
