but you know everything about daylight and the ocean and perhaps only 10% as much as I know about sports...
why is one meaningless subject considered 'omg common sense everyone knows it you're stupid' and the other is just meaningless?
Huh?
Huh?
I measure intelligence differently. I choose to be ignorant in subjects that do me no good/don't interest me. I could care less about history. I don't care about slavery or Lincoln or who discovered America...
I do care about the Chiefs and Michael Jordan and Nolan Ryan and amazing pizza recipes and stuff like that...
I'm 27. I don't need to know where Slovakia is on the map. Does me no good.

The test is more of common sense.. If you get a low score on something like this that should be easy to pass, then the teams will know or have a better idea about how you will handle your career and money they give you..
Sure, there are diamonds in the rough that end up getting a smart money manager that will not screw them over/broke..
But when a person is lacking that bad at analytically skills, he best be a freak athlete to have the scores overlooked.. At least for a few years until you can release him when he is downhill and more then likely broke so he can go play for the Raiders..
I got a 13, the 2 I missed I did not want to scribble on paper.. The rest was done in like 2 mins.
