Actually I pinned it on my cubical wall - along with a football calendar so that people could get the joke. That was back in the good old days when programmers could get away with almost anything.

Jerry Lucas (a basketball player) is also a famous memory expert. He co-wrote "The Memory Book" with Harry Lorayne. When he was a kid he would mentally re-arrange the letters of words in alphabetical order (i.e. 'alphabetical' would become 'aaabcehillpt').

I play football/soccer...very poorly, but I play it. And I've been told that I'm intelligent. So...there you go.

Not everybody understands the offside rule, you know. Or are are we talking about the "other football"? In which case I reckon they must have precious few brain cells left looking at the caging they use to protect them, never mind any thought about what would make you want to play that game if you had more than a few to rub together.....

:p

A headh knock is when they get hit, kicked or smashed in the head. Generally any kind o head bashing that could result in brain damage.

I play at least two, usually three games a week. It has been pointed out that this proves my lack of intelligence. Of course this is coming from someone who wants me to sit back down and just drink beer.

Intelligent Footballers?

Oxymoron?

Aliantha · 08-29-2007, 02:27 AM

You know, I was just looking at this thread title and thought the same thing myself. That must be snapworthy.

Out kicking a ball around a cow pasture for millions of dollars... yep, they sure are dumb.

Aliantha · 08-30-2007, 12:51 AM

yeah...a lot of them are very dumb. If you don't think so i guess that's your opinion.

lookout123 · 08-30-2007, 11:31 AM

That concept you just missed is called sarcasm.

Aliantha · 08-30-2007, 07:27 PM

I don't think so lookout. I'm pretty sure I was spot on.

Aliantha · 08-30-2007, 07:51 PM

What I mean by that is, if I said ths sky is blue, Bruce would argue it's green.
