Title: *Nerd Post* Cognitive Biases In Football
Post by: Jimmy Hill on September 21, 2011, 03:50:06 PM
I found this post fascinating: http://stumblingandmumbling.typepad.com/stumbling_and_mumbling/2011/09/cognitive-biases-in-football.html

How many of these biases do you think you're guilty of?

The stupidest example of this is when retards criticise managers for not being more passionate on the touchline. But this is just the 2% of a managers' working week that is the most salient.

I assume from your considered response that you are not in agreement with the contents of the article then....or do you just not understand it?

At the end of the day, its the only 2% that actually matters.
