Reply to comment by Korwinga in A study of NFL games during the 2020 season suggests a link between attendance and COVID spikes in surrounding counties 14 and 21 days later. The inferred connection held strongest for games attended by 20,000-plus fans by Wagamaga

They cherry picked 100 of the 269 games and are only looking at the worst part of the Beta variant.

Similar better conducted studies show there was no increase in covid due to NFL and NCAA games.

Wait, is this what happened? You got confused. Your "better study" is actually the one that is using (potentially) cherry picked data. They are only analyzing 101 of the NFL games over their time period. Is this where you got the idea that the OP study was only analyzing 100 games?

Ironically enough, OP's study actually discusses this study and why it got different results. It might help if you actually read the study before criticizing it.
