so the is you guys probably overtime twenty to twenty
jeppesen dolphins
taking a short game-winning feel grateful for one minute
mcfaul lining up to win the game
and uh...
joe feldman rushes in
calls timeout
just as the most apt
indicators blocked the
dolphin players don't know they think they have
there they there's new life for that blocked the cake overtime will continue
but it turns out that timeouts kal
obviously joe feldman can't know that that cake would get blocked
the mistake is
the presumption
the calling the timeout
is the right thing bright
so in this case it comes back to bite him so i'm not singling out joe feldman
i'm singling out this idea of calling time out
which needs to be rethought
isn't e_s_p_n_ story today
which suggests
that philbin made the right decision
visit says since two thousand eight
kickers who had a timeout called immediately before a game winning kick
were successful
seventy nine percent of the time and kickers who kicked it
right uh... when there was no time out
made a seven percent of the time it was the deity six to seventy nine five seven
percent
differential
one that can't possibly
you're taking your leaving a lot about like whether they had any time out the
distance of the cake a whole lot other i was thinking distance of the cake as
well
since two thousand
if you got their study in two thousand ten going back all the way to two
thousand instead of a limited studies since two thousand eight by the way it
back but yet since two thousand eight covered three seasons
since two thousand at some pictures made seventy seven percent of your goals in
the final two minutes are overtime when no time out was called when a timeout
was called
they made seventy nine point ninety
shaddock time so so they make more they made more
when the time out well
but basically
if the senate
and basically these are professional kickers
who know how to kick
if u
had to do
brain surgery let's say your brain surgeon
but before you get to that one thing is popular and and i'm not gonna remember
if i don't say it right now blossom interrupting you
duties
statistics away into the playoffs
i've no idea
it says n_f_l_ kickers as the wall street journal i'm sure it's
odd chilly out from the allies for spirit so any think the here's the thing
if you're a brain surgeon
ride with him
and there's a tricky surgery and you have to attach the uh...
meron
cerebral
you've never done it before
and there's a time out called a catholic
i don't know if those in parts of the head
site took that your surgery so my foot tonight the faces nor onto the street
and you've ever done it before
rushing on to do that surgery her he would take a moment
and read about it first
what makes us think
beginning a professional athlete
time to think about what he's going to do is somehow
going to make it less likely to do
it has no basis in human nature
i would think
i what i want to run on the field after this other professional kicker
analytic etc i'll take a moment
and i'll think about this cake wherein a lot of alcohol check the wind and all
the things that theoretically but do it on the sideline anyway
and it doesn't work what i think might work which i've totally been interested
in
is this
clocks running down six
five-four the kickers lining it up
you stand next to the referee regain your middle linebacker destination
address and i'm not gonna call time out
just do this
so it contributing to this do this to the referee in the you're saying that
their professional athletes who don't you think out of anything they're not
going to look at you and think how is in a cultural team doing understand if
you're going to think about it like that only thing that strikes me that would
disrupt someone
is something that's a prices
something they don't expect but either way calling time of the presumption that
you should call a timeout
the presumption he should maybe
you know they're they're that chart which frankly the precision figley call
time out of the people call in the first place is the team
that has the balls about to make it get bug in that sense they be like
install timeout let's get everything set let's make sure were lined up for it
