Cold dry weather will take HP over 558 as it is dense and contains more O2. A hot humid day will reduce performance. While MPG is the last thing you think of when you own that car you should still be aware that mileage is worse in the winter. More cold dense air = MAF signals computer to use more fuel. Also, while on a perfect track and day it will hot 60 in 3.6s, bad tires, breaking traction all effect over all performance. Some peoples expectations are outright absurd. Drew is expected to lead men with perfection. The facts are the facts Patton lost fkn soldiers. Six Sigma still has a potential error rate of 3.4 defects per million. The best neurosurgeon has lost a patient on the table. Drew Brees has thrown interceptions. He will throw another one.... and another one; acknowledging it is one thing, dwelling and hating on the man because of it is a bit fkn elitist. Being invidious in every single conversation because he makes more $ than anyone on these forums is pure envy. Don't begrudge a man for what he makes, if someone is to be lambasted it should be the guy that pays him. Drew Brees is our best hope for another Super Bowl.... another win this season. |

On Hubris - That is an NFL QB, while Brees made a costly error in judgement he is no different from P. Manning ending the hopes of SB 44 by throwing a pick 6. By nature of the beast taking chances and fitting balls into tight spaces (thats what she said) is what differentiates a good QB from a great QB. The greater % of their passes in the NFL are into tight spots... its a gamble.. a crap shoot.. You walk away either brilliant or an idiot... |
