You are an athlete or coach. You have predicted pre-game that your team will not only win the upcoming game against the hated rivals, but win it by a specific score.

Lo and behold, the game unfolds as predicted. The score is exactly what you predicted it would be. And with just a few seconds remaining in the game, you are in position to score one more (touchdown, basket, goal, run, etc.).

  • Score, to run up the score - more is always better
  • Don’t score, in order to preserve the pre-game score prediction
