Funny that I did delete a paragraph I wrote about how the decision basically shifts the responsibility from the Pats D (already peed itself in the 4th quarter once) to the coach.Josekinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04018800385971112626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14743225.post-48406934255074961452009-11-19T01:30:42.333+08:002009-11-19T01:30:42.333+08:00Most of my thoughts are on this post from my blog:...Most of my thoughts are on this post from my blog: http://ramblingsandgamblings.blogspot.com/2009/11/big-weekend-in-sports-sport.html<br />but there are a few new things I've heard since.<br /><br />1. Some fans think he showed too much trust in his defense. They think he thought, "if we make this 4th down great, if not, we'll stop them from the 30." Although, the fallacy in that theory is that if you think you can stop them from the 30, you should be able to stop them from 70.<br /><br />2. CC pitched on three days rest for much of the playoffs. Rivera threw more 2 inning saves than he had in a long time. You go with your best when the game is on the line. Always.<br /><br />3. If it wasn't for Belichick's decision, the last three days would have been filled with talk about the Pat's 4th quarter collapse instead. Took media pressure off the team.<br /><br />4. People in general have sudden death aversion. I think you know that term. I've written about it but it was first published by Richard Thaler.The Pretenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10344696445428286985noreply@blogger.com
