Excerpt:

Star Tom Cruise was in the crowd, however Robin van Persie was the leading gun. He supplied the Hollywood ending on a day of thunder for English soccer because it suggested the Premier League title will cross Manchester again at the end of the period, however this time from City back to United. Alex Ferguson owes Arsene Wenger a thank-you card because his Manchester United team would not go to the top of the league if the Arsenal manager had not offered him Van Persie. Exactly what a deal Ferguson struck in getting the Netherlands striker for a stated $ 38 million. For United fans, Van Persie's match-winning objective on Sunday alone was valuable because of the dagger it plunged into the heart of rival Manchester City.

Key:

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
