I'm not "hating" on it... but I will provide my opinion.  If you want to base a life changing decision on a random encounter with some guy at a gas station, I will not judge you for it. 

I personally would not do that and think it's a dangerous way to live.  In general however, Boston is more set financially than pretty much anyone on this board will ever be so if he wants to let some random dude decide whether he makes millions in Buffalo or LA, then... ok.

Imagine applying that to our lives? Have a job offer from two different companies. Go home to discuss it with wife and family.

 

Wife: We should discuss this.

You: No need honey.

Wife: Why?

You: Well one is in the northern part of the state and the other is in the southern part. On my way home I saw a guy who looked just like Tim Allen. Tim Allen was in the Santa Clause which is my favorite movie and Santa is from the north pole. So I saw that as a sign to choose the company in the north.

To paraphrase Milan Kundera, man is so in love with the idea of fate that we fail to notice all the other many coincidences in life that do not connect to our romantic idea of ourselves and what we value with meaning.

The chargers are a good team in a good state. He has a better chance of playing time. He's just a self-important goofball like the rest of us.

I have no ill will toward Tre and I wish him well.

As to the story, if all other things were equal in his mind, then I don't see a problem with him making his decision this way.

If all things are equal, yes. But all things are rarely equal, only similar. Chance encounters should not be used to direct your life. That's letting your emotions make decisions for you. Your emotions will get you in places you can't get out of.

Would it have been better if he had flipped a coin?

There are times when all factors are equal in someone's mind. In cases like that, someone may choose to look elsewhere.

It would have been less dramatic but just as reasonable.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion in Here)

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.

      Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor.

      Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
