Absolutely not, are you and accountant for (frank) sake? (thats a joke)

how about

Selling a dream
public image
pride, lets say to work for an organisation
obtaining your goals ( or trying to)
accomplishements ( or feeling of)
etc

lots of intangible were a math formula wont give you the answer, in my humble opinion thats all

I'm not saying math is the only factor in any or every decision but that doesn't mean math doesn't apply. Studies show 98% of decisions humans make are emotional rather than rational, that doesn't mean there isn't math that applies in those situations, just that the decision maker either chooses to ignore it or takes it into account and decides against it. The math still applies in every example you brought up but the emotions of the situation lead to other decisions...that doesn't change the math or mean it doesn't apply.

Math never tells the whole story but it also never lies. The basic math point from stats and probability is that when you increase the pool of candidates you increase your chances of finding the best hire and if the french guy is the best hire that will stand up even when the pool is increased. That's all.

IF they decide to go that way. don't get too exctited.
I have a friend who hated Plante soooo much, she was sure Coderre would win easily, blinded by her hate for Plante. haven't talk to her recently but I'm pretty sure she took it hard lol.
with so many long term contracts, a rebuild won't be easy.

Who would have thought trading your best offensive forward and bringing in the biggest joke defenseman in the league would work out?

Not sure it would be wise for Gorton to bring in an egomaniac who as a player quit the Habs mid game almost 30 years ago and as a coach quit the Avs on the eve of an upcoming season. But then again, it could be on point

Really hey ? That seems quite high but font feel like arguying

I always say very little is black or white (fully) in life and the grey zone covers most of it, so yes looking at it that way we agree that there so many factors to consider in any decision, just not sure Math is ALWAYS that important, haha
