*Nerd Post* Cognitive Biases In Football
« 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?

Very interesting actually but an 8 goal hammering at OT is going to take a great deal of intellectual theorising to make it seem palatable to the more academically-inclined Gooner isn't it?

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.

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

I couldnt care less if Sinnott wants to wank about all week, as long was we play to the best of our ability and/or win
