I feel like if I was out there (playing) we would definitely have a great chance of being in the (NCAA) tournament."
This is an example of bias because Nate is expressing confidence in his own abilities. Some other people may disagree with the statement. Because Nate knows the game more than most and is talking about himself he is displaying a clear bias. To clear up this is a good thing to have have confidence in oneself not knocking him at all.
"I have the right to come back so I wanted to take advantage of that. I knew Xavier fans and the coaches would be happy with that decision and I just felt like it was the right decision."
Nate Johnson here has a bias because he sees first hand to how fans react since he was a player on the team. Fans think differently and have a different mindset compared to the players
And when Johnson told his teammates, they were "ecstatic. They were happy for me, happy for the team, and we all just can't wait to run it back again."
This is the opposite of binary thinking because it is giving only one response from different people from one action/decision
