In response to "I don't think it was a brave choice. At best I would call it a desperate choice. At worst I would say an extreme lapse in judgement." by Redmond

It was a winning call and the right play. Had the guy not muffed it, you aren't saying a word right now.

I would still say it was the wrong call and he got lucky if it worked. But we can agree to disagree. - Redmond Nov 15, 21:07 9
- Whereas most everyone else would be saying it was a bold call, and the reason he has those rings. - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 15, 21:10 8
  - It was a bold call, but I guarantee that even Bill will admit that there was a sequence of poorly executed plays down the stretch that hurt. - TFox Nov 15, 21:13
  - "I like it when a coach makes a bold move to win a game instead of a conservative play to not lose a game." He made a bold move that lost the game. - Redmond Nov 15, 21:13 6
    - "...to win the game." Not "...that won the game." - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 15, 21:21
    - But of course we will. Because it didn't work. Not saying it was brilliant, but the fact that 99% of people will call that dumb when it doesn't work - TFox Nov 15, 21:15 4
      - C'mon people, there was an entire episode of Sports Night about this very thing! - the wrong element, bad guy Nov 15, 21:25
      - I posted this before the snap of the ball. Because I felt there was no way he does something that stupid. -- (link) - Redmond Nov 15, 21:19 [Backboard] 2
        
        And then you hedged your bets, saying he had balls, and not that he was dumb. -- nm - TFox Nov 15, 21:19 1
        
        My definition of having balls isn't that you are smart. I could go punch a MMA fighter because I have balls but I still get my assed kicked after I - Redmond Nov 15, 21:26
