Mike and Mike posed an interesting question

If you had the chance to make one half court shot out of twenty attempts and win $20 million dollars or miss all 20 and spend 2 years in prison, would you do it? What says the MSB?
50

I just wouldn't shoot the last one.
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:06 pm to WarhawkRebel
Yes I would. I am confident in my ability to hit 1 out of 20 half court shots.
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:06 pm to WarhawkRebel
I could make a half court shot in 10 attempts
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:07 pm to WarhawkRebel
Wouldn't do it.
I made a half court shout once at a game, so I figure it won't happen again.
frick prison

I'm shooting

Federal pen or local? Definitely if it is fed pen.
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:12 pm to WarhawkRebel
Nope. Not risking 20 years in prison. Even if it's only a small chance.
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:12 pm to WarhawkRebel
This is a cop out but let me go practice and I'll get back to you on that one
I might just try it though....

I'd do it in a heartbeat. I trust my ability to hit one out of 5. Nerves would be going strong, but I think I could make at least one out of 20.

It's only 2 years in prison
Would I be treated as an excon the rest of my life?

How much practice time do I get before I have to make the decision?
Right now sitting in my office chair, if I had to go straight to the court and start shooting, hell no.

Well that's not the question. So...

How long do you have to shoot the 20 shots?
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:14 pm to WarhawkRebel
In a heart beat, I'd for sure hit one out of 20
Posted on 3/5/15 at 2:17 pm to WarhawkRebel
Man I wanna say I'd try it and would feel really confident just randomly doing it on a Tuesday night or something with no consequences, but with this on the line things would get really stressful after you miss the first 10 or something.
For $20 million, I think I'd do it though. Maybe prison wouldn't really be that terrible since you aren't in for committing a crime or anything so you could possibly get back into the workforce easier. It'd be really big news and shite so everyone would know what you're talking about in interviews when you tell them you tried this thing.

I could definitely hit 1 out of 20 just shooting at the gym, but I feel like my nerves would really frick me over here.

I don't think the confident folks are factoring in how much pressure they would be under.
