The Narrative: the West is the best

How/when/where did I “try to change the narrative?”




By concentrating on a NC, which says nothing about a division or a conference. I've said it several times, so let me say it again.

If a National Championship made a conference or a division the best, then the ACC would have been the best conference last year.

To determine who is the best team from each division. And the premise of the SECCG is to determine who is the best.. Therefore, it would stand to reason that the West Divisional Champ and the East Divisional Champ, after competing against each team in their Division, is representing their Division as "the Division's best." Stop me if you have any questions.


STOP! I have a question. Is the ACC the best conference in the country, since their best team (Clemson) beat our best team (Alabama) last year?

That seems to be the sticking point to your whole premise. Just because the west's best team beats the east's best team it does NOT stand to reason that the west is better than the east. Unless you are willing to concede that the east was better than the west in 2017....which falls right back to my premise. The east has shown it is as good or better than the west over the past couple of years.

You made the example. live with it. Enjoy it. And, you are the winner. You get to take the box of rocks home with you. You should have some facinating conversations.

Agreed. Which is why I used 19 years worth of data instead of a single game to support my case in the first place.
Fine. And I have said many times that over a large (Decade or so) of time the west has been superior. That is why I have also said MANY times that the last couple of years the east has caught up to the west. NOTE: Head to head. East teams playing west teams. Do you have a hard time reading or is it just comprehending you have trouble with?

.But then you come back and say shite like..

quote:
If you want to talk the last couple of years
That is literally the very first thing I said that you took offense to! That the west is no longer the best because the last couple of years the east has caught the wes.


Read the title of this thread, that YOU created says.

"Why is the west the best"

That is in the present tense...as in the west is currently the best. I have proven with my data that the east has caught the west the last couple of years.
Therefore the west is NOT the best currently....as your title suggests.

Do you even English?
YOU set the timeline in the title of your thread. Current. Present. Right now.




If you don't like it, change the thread title to state the west has been the best over the last 10 years, or something to that effect.

Never happened. Maybe you're concentrating on one? Which is totally understandable as a UGA fan.

Apples & oranges. If they had 3 separate teams dominate over the last two decades then the answer is unequivocally yes.

FIFY

the west has been superior
Why was it so difficult for you to understand that was the whole point of the thread?

I have a very difficult time keeping up with all of your contradictory statements. I'm curious to see if the UGA defense will be flopping to slow down Big Dick Joe as much as you flop in your posts.
