So true. People have no concept of how huge variance is in sports. Even on this forum with people who should be smart & know poker, the Sporting Events forum is full of insane result-orientation. The reality is that two teams or two players could be nearly identical in true ability, but through variance one of them becomes a "clutch performer" and an all-time legend and the other becomes a "choker".
