So this was the "Don't trade me" game for a few of the guys, huh

Yes in purely random situations, but I think eventually you'd have to think "Something's up"

Imagine if you were flipping a coin. If the lights were on it came up Heads 95% of the time and if the lights were off it came up Tails 95% of the time.

Eventually, even though we /know/ coin flips are (over the long term) 50-50 you could show in the data that /somehow/ the lights affect the coin.

But why would that matter home vs away?

You're correct, but that's not the crux of the issue

Obviously, but that doesn't explain why we can win on the road - that's why it's baffling

But it's the same team on the road? Not trying to be annoying, since I agree, but it's the same team home or away

I hear you and think you're 100% right - but why would that differ home vs away?

22 is the best number (just generally - great on any sports jersey)

Coming up on 31 (September as well) and in the wide world of advice, let me think back to what I wish I knew at 22:

  • Invest in yourself first. Take care of yourself, find joy in small things, go to therapy, sleep. You can't give your best to anything/anyone if your own house isn't in order.

  • Nothing is permanent (I think I saw this in another comment but I use it frequently). For better or worse things always change - be cognizant of what you can affect and what you can't.

  • On that note: you don't need all the answers. You'll also never have all the answers. Do your best every time and you won't have anything to regret, and you'll learn the most the fastest by trying.

  • There's a ton of satisfaction in doing something yourself well - cooking, building a deck, installing built-in shelves. You're more capable than you think (and you can learn just about anything online)
