re: Spinout Thread RE Faulk - Conclusive Photo Evidence

This is directly from wikipedia: Occam's razor (or Ockham's razor) is a principle from philosophy. Suppose there exist two explanations for an occurrence. In this case the one that requires the least speculation is usually better. Another way of saying it is that the more assumptions you have to make, the more unlikely an explanation.

So again, you have no idea what Occam's razor actually is. Its not what you said it was. You don't know what you're saying. You are not very bright. Please explain again why I am wrong because you only make yourself look like you have no idea what you are talking about.

Holy frick! I...I did not have to look it up. Since you have to do research, here's a clue -- don't stop at the first link you see. Seriously. What you just wrote is a modern, inaccurate shorthand of what Ockham actually said. If you took the trouble to learn, you'd be amazed at the facts that could penetrate your brain. My summation was entirely correct, and the version you used has actually led to bad science over the years. I'm literally chuckling out loud at your inept attempt to seem learned.

Now, for the easy part -- what assumption seems more unlikely: some TAMU staffer decided, after a win, to seek out some LSU staffer and punch him in the chest for no articulated reason; or there was jostling on the field, as always after a game, somebody got hit, and an overemotional Faulk overreacted after the frustration of losing a heartbreaker of a game? And then, being the standup guy that he is, Kragthorpe threw his buddy to the lions and got Faulk fired by LSU or heavily punished by the SEC....er, Kragthorpe took up for his buddy, I mean, and tried to make Faulk's actions excusable. As I said originally,they're both possible. But you require a helluva lot more speculation to decide that the TAMU guy just went around punching people for no reason after a win.

Edit: Anyway, I'm off to bed. Gotta go into the office this week instead of working from home. VPs suck. I just want you to know that I get why you're trying this hard to push your narratives. You're angry and unhappy and you keep seeing non-LSU fans not sharing your feelings. That was a rough game last night and I'm being sincere when I say I understand. But...you need to stop and think before you engage. It's hard to resist impulses sometimes, for all of us. That includes me. But it's really worth the effort in the end.

I mean even if all of that were true, it wouldn’t justify Faulk running up on the dude and throwing punches.

I'm still waiting to see the picture of Faulk throwing a punch. All I see is Faulk grabbing Fisher's thuggy nephew. I haven't seen where the punch picture is so maybe you can show it.

I see no reason why Faulk would pick that kid out of all of the people there. None. Every picture shows the kid in a chaotic attack mode. I dont see Faulk in any provocative motion that makes him seem like the aggressor.

seriously? its very reasonable to assume that he saw this kid running around and getting in the faces of people like karg, thinking he saw something that he didnt see, and then reacted. thats a very reasonable thing to assume. just as likely as him randomly punching karg just because

I don’t think anyone at A&M gives a shite. This is only a “thing” among whining LSU fans.
