If anybody is hanging out watching some conference championship games, here's a place to talk about 'em if you're interested.

I honestly think that 90% of it is simply about personal experience. A lot of folks haven't been lucky enough to spend a lot of time on a field and learn what really counts. It doesn't make them stupid; it's just that the more experience you have working any particular complex problem, the more you come to understand what's actually important in those complexities and what's just tlts on a bull. It's like an accountant from Raleigh looking to buy a tractor; he doesn't have much experience so the first thing he's going to look at is the paint job. When the reality is that even some farmbilly from the red clay hills of Central Caroline has been elbows deep often enough to know from experience what's important, no matter how big a rube he might be!

At what point will you figure out that I simply do not give a shlt about pretend math? Good grief....

Thank you for more math and less football. There's nothing sneaky about him being good if you're actually watching him play instead of cherry-picking numbers to advance a narrative you've decided to dedicate yourself to.

Clearly. And I would put forth that yours is rooted in math and highlight reels while mine is simply based on actual football. You are free to rely on yours to advance your agenda and I am free to rely on mine to discuss what actually happened. 🤷‍♂️

I'm less interested in math than football. He spent the entire game disrupting multiple aspects of their offense, throwing Texan Olinemen all over the place and then made two key plays on 3rd downs in the 4th qrtr that both forced punts and actually gave the Bills a chance to win. And if you want to play the silly math game that you're trying to manipulate to make a terribly inaccurate point, ESPN has him listed #1 on the defense with 6 tackles. He played outstanding football all night long and there is no massaging of statistics designed to advance an agenda that can alter that fact.

I'm sorry, but this is entirely unfair to the legend of Captain Nemo.

Well, now we see where all of House's money went

I think this perfectly points up the size of this molehill that some folks with pre-existing agendas want to turn into a mountain. 👍

Conversely, I wonder if it might even grease the skids a little bit with other GM's around the league who are more than happy with Beane to see him messing with Roseman and the Eagles.

One of my favorites 👍 Here's another

I think he asked for his release the first time they made him inactive.

Why on earth would I waste my time on a loudmouth who knows nothing but thinks he already knows everything? Stop badgering me, I'm not interested in your foolish nonsense.

Like many other things, you have no idea how I feel, aside from sorry for you. I have seen a tiny bit of film, which only puts me a couple miles ahead of where you're at.

I already told you I didn't know, which I understand is a foreign concept to Dunning-Krueger victims.

I'm not the one running around saying nonsensical things. I'll leave that task to you.

Thank you for the further, although unnecessary, confirmation that you know nothing about him. I'm not wasting any more keystrokes on your foolishness.

I wouldn't expect him to say anything beyond that he's not reporting. But he made a point to do so. Your nonsense about Beane and McDermott is nothing but your own bias and not reflective of the real world and how players views this organization.

You don't. Yet you still continue insisting that you do. Repeatedly. https://www.verywellmind.com/an-overview-of-the-dunning-kruger-effect-4160740

Yeah, that's why he said he was "honored that a first-class organization like the Bills claimed him"
