I am smart. S-M-R-T. Smart!
Can someone please set up a celebrity Jeopardy match with Vince Young, David Beckham, and Miss Howard Stern? I’d absolutely pay to see this. The winner would have a score of -5000.
Everyone is beginning to agree that VY’s wonderlic test was, in fact, not scored incorrectly but the story was just a coverup by the NFL because of how piss poor Young’s score of 6 was. Think about it this way, if you just went down the list and checked off the same answer for all 50 questions, you would probably get at least 10 right. It wouldn’t surprise me if Vince Young was illiterate.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the pond, David Beckham admits he can’t even do his 6 year old’s homework and that he has to let Posh spice do it.
I think it was maths, actually. It’s done totally differently to what I was teached when I was at school, and you know, I was like, ‘Oh my God, I can’t do this’.
Because you know, in the last 25 years, they’ve changed the rules of mathematics according to Radiohead principles: 2+2 always = 5.

This is a great story — “The Mail on Sunday gave examples of some national curriculum maths questions set for seven-year-olds.
“They include: “Bet went to the shop at 11:45. She came back half an hour later. What time did she come back?” and “What is 12 divided by three?”
How the hell does Beckham get anywhere on time? If he can’t understand the concept of a quarter-hour and a half-hour, he must always show up either like an hour early or six hours late.
Real Madrid Coach: “David, we have to fine you. The mandatory reporting time was half past six and you showed up at half past seven.”
Beckham: “I don’t think so, Coach. You definitely said 6:30.
His agent must make a fortune — “David, I only take 1.8% of your contract, that’s well below the 3% most other agents take. Yes, 1.8% of 200M is 97M!”
Wonderlic — If the NFL thinks that the tests mean little, then why are they using it to determine the aptitude of prospects? hummmm…
