" ... In February, A again loses 30% (poor A!), B breaks even at 0%, and C has a barnburner month, gaining 330%. The median (middle) return for the month is still B’s 0% (again, the marker is hidden behind B), but the mean (average) is the total of all three returns, -30% + 0% + 330% = 300%, divided by 3 – that’s 100% (green triangle in the chart). The mean is larger than the median. When the mean is larger than the median, the distribution is said to be skewed to the right. That basically means that the distribution isn’t symmetrical (like a “bell curve”). There are a few very large positive returns (like C’s in February), but most returns are much smaller (like A’s and B’s). ... "
" ... Interestingly enough, Brady boasts an average of 315.3 passing yards per game in his nine Super Bowl starts, but the star QB has actually eclipsed 300 yards just four times. The impressive figure is buoyed by a record 505-yard showing in the barnburner that was Super Bowl LII, as well as a 466-yard outing in Super Bowl LI the year prior, which was the only overtime game in Super Bowl history. In his last appearance in the big game two years ago, Brady finished with a mere 262 yards, his lowest total since Super Bowl XXXIX back in 2004. Although he didn’t log a ton of yardage against the Rams in Super Bowl LII, Brady still attempted 35 passes, a number that is surprisingly well below his all-time Super Bowl average of 43.5 passing attempts per game. ...

" ... It is the most hotly debated race at industry watering holes. In one lane: a classic barnburner of the old naturalistic guard, trading in grand spectacle and cozy archetypes. In the other: a tradition-bucking, ultramodern discourse, challenging not only theatrical mores but the very foundation of American society. ... "
" ... That game, actually, counted as an offensive barnburner by the standards of that series—the Spurs scored 93 points, one of only two times a team broke the 90-point barrier in those Finals. The Nets and Spurs (who won in six games) had a combined shooting percentage of 39.9% and New Jersey won Game 4 by a tally of 77-76, scoring 11 points in the third quarter. ... "
" ... There is one more play of note right now. The Ferryman is an epic British import, an old-school barnburner covering everything from broad comedy to potent family drama, with nary a whiff of source material about it. While it hasn't quite been pulling the same box office numbers, it's still grossed 81% of its potential since opening, which is right in line with the industry as a whole. ... "
