Its funny cause its true.

Who makes up that number and based on what? Literally no game of no sport should have more than 75% odds, even less in a final
>>74126371
>Up by 25 points with 17 minutes left
>99.6%
Basically they use data from past games, to show that if a team had that lead (up 25 with 17 minutes left) 300 times, that they'd win the game 299. It was an all-time great comeback in NFL history, and it was in the fucking Super Bowl of all games.

Oh, these numbers are from halftime. I thought they were from before the game
What's the big deal then? Of course they'll have 99% chances, no team has made a comeback of more than 10 points before, let alone 25

Something is wrong in the formula because a silly number of teams ended up winning with odds near impossible.Every other week Carr and Stafford were BTFO of this chart, and San Diego was doing the converse. Fuck, according to this formula, the odds of San Diego blowing those stretch of games ended up being like 30 million to one.
Either we're living in the Underdog Timeline, which seems quite possible considering (Trump, Cubs, Cavs, 28-3, etc) or...
>or it's intentionally hyperbolic to make idiots think every week is a fucking miracle
>>74126432
But all Patriots, Trump and Cavs were favourites before the finals mate
They starting bad but ended up winning, that's not being underdog
>>74126421
The big deal is the improbability that the Patriots won, we may never see that in a Championship game ever again.

the number is from the third quarter, with about four seconds remaining, and the falcons up by 19. the number is "made up" by an algorithm. i don't understand what you're asking by "what's the big deal?" obviously, the big deal is that the falcons had their first super bowl in the bag with a quarter left to play and the pats still won
also,
>Literally no game of no sport should have more than 75% odds
you're fucking stupid

no news outlets or polling sources/aggregates gave trump favorable odds of winning the election, even day of. the spread only favored the patriots by 3 points. i don't pay attention to basketball so i can't comment on the cavs, but based on everything else you've said, you're probably somehow wrong about that too
