IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE INTELLECTUAL FOR YOU TO LIKE IT. Really. Once you accept that, you may even find yourself enjoying a good auto race.* And, if I've offended Peyton Manning in any way, my apologies, but I'm still not planning on challenging him to a game of chess any time soon.

That isn't what we are talking about at all. You said a good QB doesn't need to fit 3 thoughts in his head at once. That is ricockulous. You are wrong. I don't watch football for my mental stimulation but that doesn't mean these guys don't have to know anything or have any intellectual abilities to play the game.

I think really good decision makers see the game in slow motion. I heard magic break down everything he saw on a fast break and it was crazy. Me? I typically find myself on the court wondering if thurgreed did it on purpose.

I'm not arguing for the test. Ryan Fitzpatrick isn't the best QB in the NFL though he is definitely the smartest. I think the test results are interesting, but not necessarily indicative of too much.* I'm just saying it is stupid to say all QB's need to be is guys who hit other guys hard and hold a thought or two in their heads. It displays a complete lack of understanding of the game.

Indeed, I would even go beyond saying it is ricockulous. It was hyperballsy.

I think that probably athleticism (and luck/sheer will/determination) will make up for some lack of ability to think quickly and accurately, but not so much that a relatively dumb qb will last long in the NFL.

I usually don't like to reply to an Adder post for the obvious reasons, but in this case, I just have to.
I just got emailed by my first serious gf from high school. Essentially, it was like an apology email (she moved mid-year, and after a couple of months long distance, she broke up with me). We also hooked up a couple of times in college, but other than that, really no contact for 20 years. Email is about how she feels bad that she treated me poorly (she did?) and that if it makes me feel better, she's been treated poorly by her hubby for 20 years and they're divorcing.
I need a ruling here--obviously she wants to get with me right? Right? Sadly, she didn't send a picture, and you can only imagine that she can't have gotten better after 16 right? I mean she's like 39 or something. Ick.

Well since I am old enough to be Mark Sanchez's dad it is way creepy because she's probably retarded or blind or is simply helping me find my puppy in exchange for candy.

So the smart guy left a question blank with 3 minutes remaining?
Those of you impressed by football player's scores may want to take the Wonderlic Test.
The sample takes 5 minutes. But I'll bet most of you can do it in less. Remember, Peyton Manning got about half right, and he's pretty smart.

People who care about this are kidding themselves.

I care......I'm a little jealous, and I don't think I am kidding myself in that posture.

Have her meet TM in person and he can assess her looks for us. Then we can decide what to do.

Totally go for it, Flinty. I'll arrange the venue for you if it helps. Just remember, try to ignore the camera locations.

I think this is ridiculous. If you go around looking for 17 year olds, you're creepy. If you happen to meet one and she doesn't come across like she's a child (and I think any woman most guys here would be attracted to, wouldn't), it wouldn't be creepy to bang her. To sum up:
If you are looking for barely legal girls to bang, you're creepy.
If the barely legal girl you happen to meet wants to bang you and she acts like she's a child, you're creepy.
If you happen upon a barely legal girl who acts like an adult, bang her.

Way to distance yourself from your own argument. Clearly I'm the one who screwed up by engaging with you.

What if I happen upon barely legal? I would have written come upon barely legal, but that's just wrong.
