Yooper yodeled:

the Occums Razor analogy since it was the first time I have thought of it since I learned about it in my Abnormal Psychology class my sophomore year at Northern MICHIGAN University 51years ago.

No wonder you communicate so well with all of us...you had a course on it!!!

Sorry I baffled you!
I'll try to refrain from that in the future.

Let's take a hypothetical situation:

A fictional poster, let's call him Merdnan, might suggest that the Packers have signed Ryan Grant because Davante Adams is a diva of the worst possible kind and is faking his injury to try and force a trade, a new contract, or to get #12 to throw him the ball more. Perhaps even that Adams was injured when #12's massive ego fell on him. A link to an article written by Greg Jennings or Jermichal Finley might follow.

Occam's Razor would suggest the more likely reason is the Packers signed Ryan Grant because they have a few injured WRs and need a healthy one.

The rule is 1 minute for every year you are old, so you're going to be there for a while. Better bring snacks.
