If you're completing the rest of his sentence, then my bad. I could argue that, in that case, it doesn't need to be said, but whatever.
To me, it sure sounded like you were making a rebuttal--a rebuttal to an argument nobody has ever made (which was the entire point of my post). But if you weren't, so be it. Mea culpa.
I know analogies can sometimes be misconstrued, but let's break this one down.
The
topic is process not always yielding positive results.
The
example provided is someone betting 50:50 odds on a one in six chance--yet winning the bet.
That is an example of how bad process can lead to positive result, which is
EXACTLY the topic of the little tiff you engaged in.
So do you see how this analogy shows the folly of the logic at hand, while not claiming the two different topics are equal?
I know you're angry, but this isn't about me. The person you were disagreeing with was
@CBBI. Remember,
you started trying to clown on him with the Power Rangers gif. I know it can feel bad to get called out on your bullshit, but you have nobody to blame but yourself.
Nope. I don't care about you at all--just the arguments you put forth. I've sad many a time, you could be Hitler for all I care--I only care about the words on the page.
Nope.
I don't wonder about this at all.
You couldn't be further off base.
The opinions I respect the most are the ones that challenge preconceived notions I have.
However, when people have takes that are built on rocky foundations, they should be exposed as such. **WARNING: I'm not saying you,
@buzzdog do this. I'm using a hypothetical** If you want Stefanski fired, but your entire reason for doing so is that he "hides behind a play sheet" then you really shouldn't expect your opinion to be respected and accepted. It should be criticized and ridiculed not because of the conclusion--but because of the lack of work and insight that it grows from.
Some people, like
@Randolphkeys thought that Ogunjobi was best suited to play a 1-tech or 0-tech in our defense--that he was showing signs as a pretty solid run blocker. I always thought that Ogunjobi had zero value at that position, and his only value in this league was as a penetrating 3-tech. He did the work, had examples and reasons for his opinion, and nobody said a peep about it.
It's almost like process matters more than result.
Boom. Full circle.
