Blog Post Synthesis 9/24

I think some people do have advantages. For example, if you have more experience than you’re going to have greater  chance at succeeding. Like if Lebron James plays Conan one on one Lebron would obviously win because he has more experience, but if Conan challenged LeBron to a funny contest Conan would win because he has more experience. Experience doesn't have to physical it can be mental, sources who are older and have more wisdom will probably be wittier. Gladwell does think some players have an advantage because into in the passage he explains the cutoff date for sports and how some players are months older then others also which, have matured more. These players that are born right at the cutoff date are stronger, faster, more experienced than all the younger players. 12 months of growing makes a huge difference. I agree with him because people who are older obviously will have a closer chance at winning. These sources were convincing because all the championship teams were born at the same period near the cutoff date.
