    this has nothing to do with Seattle, Billy Volek, or anything NFL for that matter but i had to share possibly the most tastic post in mankind's existence

    Guess who produced this gem IRL

    "you lost me at the first sentence! haha Maybe it'd just personal experience, but an education degree (by that I mean general studies teaching at the middle school or below level here in texas) Has no concrete background in relevance to what they teach, it attempts to give teaching methods but in reality they reciprocate everything from textbooks and ppts. Maybe I'm being a little harsh on educators, don't get me wrong I appreciate what they do, but most lower level teachers aren't well versed scientific studies. This presents a problem in how the information is transferred from teacher to student, the teacher forces them to memorize it just because thats their "job", but a true educator must be passionate about what he/she teaches, they must be so well versed in the matter that they want to get everyone around them curious and excited to learn more. Here in Texas we are failing at that by letting teachers for young minds fall short of this standard, and just take the most basic of classes to get by.
    Now, as a biologist (that means I actually have my bachelors of Science* not bachelors of arts!) in specifically biology, I am able to tell you there is a HUGE difference between degrees earned, AND from what university it was earned from. In addition, specific instructors make it even more of a black or white issue. The class/ grade/ hours that are required to complete each degree are vastly different. Not to mention the difference in applied sciences (which is a generic degree taking the normal core science classes required by all, and then 2-3 in environmental biology fields, which is very broad itself!)

    The fact that you haven't watched it yet speaks for itself, I guess with all that gobbling you haven't found the time. I get it haha.

    But I must admit I love science, I really really do. I love looking at something and trying to understand the most basic components of it and how it works.
    In fact one of my most challenging tasks as an undergrad was to write a research paper about any topic that pertained to human behavioral development. I undertook the daunting task of "the evolution of religion". It was very difficult at first because I didn't want to offend anyone, and I wanted to come from an un-biased approach. I used my personal background as an EX-islamic and EX-christian (yes I've read [most of] the Bible) to construct it. I investigated Judaism for the sake of the paper (due to it being the oldest major monotheistic religion). But what I found most fascinating was to close my eyes and imagine what an early hominid individual would have seen, felt, and feared from his surroundings. That is where I developed one of my theories of myth creation that may have led to the development of good versus evil, and so on as the generations progressed. It is fascinating how we can create an illusion of though from conscious and subconscious experiences into a concrete mythical situation that may or may not ever occur. The answer to how these thoughts occur lies in the evolution of our brain, how the happenstance of a developmental quirk collaborated so beautifully with the survivability of that organism into believing in something that wasn't there. That my friend is a discussion better left for some chai and attentive ears."

    Im not a huge Manning fan, though he definitely has helped the Broncos at least be relevant, but how do you figure he's the biggest choker? Phillip has yet to win the big game in the AFC.
    He is consistently on teams that look like they should be good in the playoffs, but they lose usually because of his ty performance? Like when the pressure is on?

    Based on his history this latest choke was ENTIRELY predictable as anyone without their head up his ass would see.

    Really? So I'm going to assume you were in here and called this outcome before it happened?

    feel somewhat sorry for Aggies, they have an actual reason for the 12th Man, figures that a Microsoft guy would steal another person's idea though.

    Aggy stole the 12th Man from Minnesota and Iowa and their backstory about it is full of complete lies.... I don't feel sorry for them at all, tbh....

    i don't really feel sorry, i was being a bit facetious, but didn't know they stole it. still, not shocked a Microsoft guy ripped off another person's idea.

    Its always like that. I live in So. Cal and it was Denver Bronco fans everywhere. When the Steelers were in the Superbowl it was the same, then the Patriots, then the Saints. I just don't get the joy of changing teams, its much more enjoyable to root for one team for an eternity and suffer the agony of defeat and then the sweet pussy nectar of a championship.
