@RichEisenShow The worst victim was Lauren roberts. He had the honor in the US Open playoff which was in sudden death. NBC froze him out on the tee for 15 minutes cuz they just had to show that Bronco Chase. He hit it in the rough and lost the US Open to Ernie Els.

@Michplay_a_day We suckered iowa into that throw. We showed the corner Blitz and brought it. The safety ruled over the top. Armin thought he was wide open on the post. But Mallory ran right there from Faking a blitz up the middle and was there to make that pic.

Kevin O'Leary: The 80/20 signal-to-noise rule Steve Jobs & Elon Musk used to outperform everyone

"I used to work for Steve Jobs in the early 90s making all of his educational software. I would say, 'Steve, we've got to do some market research on Oregon Trail. It's in 110,000 school buildings. It's going to cost you 12-15 million bucks. We want to find out what the students want, what the teachers want, what the parents want.'"

O'Leary shares Steve's response:

"Steve would say, by the way, not a nice guy, not a nice guy, he would say to a room full of people: 'Kevin, I don't give a shit what the students want or the parents think or anybody thinks. It's what I want. They don't know what they want till I tell them what they want.'"

O'Leary pushed back:

"I said, 'Steve, you sound like such an asshole. You have no idea what that sounds like.' He said, 'No, no, that's how it is, Kevin. Are you making money with me? Am I your fastest growing OEM? Have we not been wildly successful and continue to be?' I said, 'Yes, Steve, that's true.' He said, 'Then shut up and do what I say.' That's how he would talk to you. 100%."

O'Leary explains what he learned:

"There's a concept that he understood that very few people focused on back then, signal-to-noise ratio. His vision of signal was the top 3 to 5 things you have to get done in the next 18 hours. Not your vision for the business next week or next month or next year. Just the next 18 hours you're awake. You're going to get those 3 to 5 things done that you have deemed critical for your mission. They must get done today. Anything that stops you from doing that is the noise."

He shares the ratio that made Jobs successful:

"For Steve Jobs, the signal to noise ratio to be successful was 80/20. 80% signal, 20% noise. And I knew that to be true with him because he would email me at 2:30 in the morning and expect me to get back to him."

O'Leary compares Jobs to one other person:

"The only other person I've seen with a higher ratio than that is Elon Musk. He has no noise. He does not deal with noise. He is 100% signal. 24 seconds of every 30 seconds. 60 seconds of every minute. 60 minutes of every hour. The 18 hours he's awake, it's all signal. And look what he's achieved."

He acknowledges the tradeoff:

"That's very awkward for him socially, because noise is dealing with your family sometimes. Noise is saying hi to a friend. Noise is doom scrolling on social media. Maybe playing your guitar. But very few people on Earth, and if you go back in history, you'll find that the geniuses of their time were close to 100% signal."

O'Leary shares another example:

"Bezos will not make a decision after 1:00 in the afternoon, because he felt that the noise was too high. The signal for him was in the morning hours."

He summarizes the lesson:

"This is a crucial aspect of success that I now understand. It defines an entrepreneur. A man or woman that understands the signal-to-noise ratio, that focuses on that, they'll be successful. The ones that can't, that get down to a 50/50 signal to noise, they'll fail. It's that simple."

Cowboy Don wanted to remind you on this morning that Michigan Basketball is headed to the Final Four this weekend, and Michigan Hockey is headed to the Frozen Four next weekend. #GoBlue

@swankywolverine I'm not surprised

@NBCOlympics Michigan to the rescue

[Connor Stalions @cpstalions]

@BoilerMuse I agree. The only reason Michigan won is because they made their shots and Purdue missed theirs. If you flip those 2 outcomes, Purdue would have scored more points than Michigan.

This is a reminder that LSU these last 5 years is the same as Minnesota, just with a lot more AP votes and more FCS wins.

[Don Thomas @REALDonThomas]

Gonzaga has the 4th-ranked defense in the country according to KenPom, and Michigan put 101 points on them.

Y’all just be saying anything. 😂

[Roger Oveur @fbear2014]

@haslametrics Best defensive five game stretch I can ever remember. Not sure it’s sustainable but they look like they have 6 or 7 guys on the court at all times on that end.

Per Torvik in that stretch, their D is 7.8 points!!! better than #2. 7.8 also separates #2 from #36!
