book smart doesn't equate to street smart

I posted that earlier, smart is the application of intelligence in day to day life. Howard Hughes was one intelligent SOB, who couldn't leave his room. Of course phobia has nothing to do with either intelligence or smart... does it? Now I'm sceeeered lol

All this about Moore's Wonderlic score is a non-issue anyway - that is unless he had scored some single digit number that suggested he is incapable of learning, which he did not. A "football IQ" is not the same as a score on a general IQ test. Those talking about Moore's football IQ or intelligence are talking about his knowledge of a particular topic, and that has to do with everything from general intelligence, to natural instincts, to passion for the topic, to study of the topic to common sense, to putting all of this into action and learning from experience. There a lot of people that could completely ace a general IQ test that only understand things on an academic level, and couldn't make real world use of the knowledge.
How many times have you been watching Jeopardy!, and wondered how none of the contestants knows what seems like common knowledge to you? Yet these people answer questions that make you say, "How could anyone know that???"

My wife just took this for her new company. She got a 42. She asked me who was playing in the Super Bowl this year. On Saturday.

She asked you the question on Saturday or who was playing the Saturday SB game? There is a difference. If she asked the question Saturday then she isn't a football junky. If she asked who was playing the Saturday SB game she's daft :muttley::facepalm:

Do you have any backup commentary, or is this just a blind statement without any effort at thought?

Far more are capable of both.

Well played sir!!!
Hard to believe that was real....:lmao2:


Best one ever was on the Newlywed Game.

Q: In your neighborhood, what direction does the sun rise from?
Husbands all look puzzled, and give the right answer.

Wives come back and have to answer, not seeing how their husbands answered.
All the wives got it wrong and berated their husbands for not matching them.
None of the husbands let out a peep in protest.
