Roast Bill for Thanksgiving anyone?

"With 2:08 left and the Colts with only one timeout, a successful 4th-and-2 conversion wins the game for all practical purposes. A conversion on 4th-and-2 would be successful 60 percent of the time.

 

Historically, in a situation with 2:00 left and needing a TD to either win or tie, teams get the TD 53 percent of the time from that field position.

 

The total win probability for the 4th-down conversion attempt would therefore be:

 

(0.60 * 1) + (0.40 * (1-0.53)) = 0.79 WP (WP stands for win probability)

 

A punt from the 28 typically nets 38 yards, starting the Colts at their 34.

 

Teams historically get the TD 30 percent of the time in that situation. So the punt gives the Pats about a 0.70 WP.

 

So, historically on average, it was the right call.

 

Fuck you Rodney Harrison and Teddy Bruschi.

Making Life Easy...

MAKING LIFE "EASY" FOR CHILDREN USUALLY MAKES LIFE "HARD" FOR THEM IN ADULTHOOD.

 

Del Smith, the millionaire founder and chairman of Evergreen International Aviation, has often said, "Thank God I was born poor; I learned how to work." Like many others who made it to the top on their own, Smith believes that the greatest gift that can be given to a child is to teach him or her the value of work. It is a gift that can never be lost or stolen. It's a natural desire of parents to give their children material things they didn't have as children. Such generosity, however, often deprives children of the greatest gift you can give them: confidence in their ability to take care of themselves. When you make life "hard" for your children by requiring them to learn the value of work, they will have a far greater likelihood of success as adults.
