So a QB that completes 43% of his passes is completing nearly 60%? You must be a heck of a QB coach.
.
You have to look at in context. First, the normal range of any QB's completion percentage is much closer than 0%-100%. It's usually almost always between 46%-75%. Any starter with something out of that range is an extreme outlier. Therefore, your 17% difference accounts for more than half of the normal range of the best and worst QB.
Further, as numbers increase, the "nearly" is more accurate. For instance, pretend your wife took your daughter shopping. When they came home, your daughter showed you the new shirt she bought for her birthday. You told her it was a nice shirt. Then, your wife interjected and said "I hope it is a nice shirt. She paid nearly $100 for it!" If you found out that your daughter only paid $84 for it, would you go back to your wife and tell her she was wrong and that your daughter didn't pay nearly $100 for it? Of course not.
Pretend you manage a team of 38 employees. Your boss tells you that you have to let 16 of them go that day. You came home and your wife could tell that you were distraught. You explained to her that you had to let nearly half of your employees go. When she asked how many, you said "I had to let go 16 of the 38." Do you think that anyone reasonable would say "16 isn't nearly half. It's 16 vs. 19, those are't close"? Of course not. It's context.
Likewise, somebody saying that "nearly half of that $38 million was raised a certain way" (16 vs. 19 out of 38) is nearly half.
Also, what month did the HS close down, and what month is it now? Rounding in your favor is something you do really well.
Without looking again, I believe it was June of 2011 and another reference to it being August of 2011. Therefore, at the longest, it would be 7 years and 4 months. It's standard to round down if it is below 5, hence 7 years. You really aren't good with numbers, are you?
And your claim that I am rounding up/down to my advantage is also bogus when you look at my examples above.
See, this is what the position coach does best. He argues about minutea that really isn’t important to the discussion and wears you down with persistence and volume.
Who the fvck are you kidding? You're the one who has spent the last two weeks making bullshit allegations, then when proof is shown that you're wrong, you hide. Hell, how many times do I have to tell you to explain how my first post in that particular thread was wrong in any way only to have you continue to hide, then claim you aren't hiding, yet refuse to answer? How many times have I said to take each of your allegations individually, yet you refuse to respond to the proof? You're the one who throws shit out, and when none of it sticks, you try another throw only to ignore being called out for your previous bullshit.
I had no idea when Williamson consolidated. I didn’t bother looking. I knew it was more than 5 years ago and not 15. A decade sounded about right. Who cares?
No, no, no.
See, this is why you aren't very bright and are a hypocrite. You asked where it was that I was getting my statistics and then inferred that they were bullshit like you have incorrectly accused me of before. I showed where my stats came from. Then, when you presented statistics, I called you out the same way you did to me. The difference is that I had references for the correct statistics that I used. You, on the other hand, presented bullshit, which you incorrectly accused me of doing, and now want to hide behind it being irrelevant.
It's called being stupid and being a hypocrite. You've mastered both.
