Book smart was a poor choice of words probably, but you don't graduate from Stanford with a 4.2 if you aren't smart. Non of the things you listed make him not smart. All of the things that are listed as to why he is dumb point to a few things. Most notably head trauma and a quick temper. IMO

I don't think it's head trauma - the dude is a highly emotional human being - that whole defense was. It's just how they are wired. It's a part of what made them great. People want to accept all the positives that wiring brings - but then get all fucking judgy and high brow when they make a mistake based on the same wiring. Can't have it both ways. It's utter bullshit and it is tiring. And you know all these judges are cheetoh fingered beer bellies judging from their couches while the Shermans of the world go out and shine.

this whole debate reminds of the trans/gender debate, where when presented with logic and scientific reasoning, they just change the definition to more accurately fit their narrative; "intelligence is just a social construct! It's fluid, and created by the patriarchal colonialization of Africa! He yelled after a huge play, so by definition he's stupid!"

Fritos are a good snack because they're really good for a handful or two, then you can put the bag down. Doritos, on the other hand, I have to bitch slap myself to not eat the whole bag in one sitting. And don't even get me started on Pringles.

Have you ever checked the calories on Fritos though. I only have them about twice a year because of it.

I bought a 3.5 oz bag which is medium sized which can be easily finished at lunch with a sandwich and you look at the back and it says 160 calories and think not a big deal. But it is 3.5 servings! so 160 x 3.5 = 560 calories! lol

This reminds me of all those athletes who have struggled outside the game. So many talented individuals who excel at a sport but are clueless when it comes to real life.

The 4.2 GPA was from high school not college.

Hey it looks like PFF grades are available. I don't seem to have access any longer.
I forgot my password and got locked out for too many failed attempts to log in. I then contacted them and some dude there named Mitch Kaiser sent me a new password and that didn't work so i finally cancelled my subscription.
