The wisdom of Children

by Lionsfan8 on Jan 7, 2012 2:34 PM EST

So my friend (unfortunately a Packer fan), put together a survey for the kids at the school he works at. A simple assessment. Predict who will win the wild card games and what will the score be. Here are the results:

Detroit Lions vs. New Orleans Saints: 71% Saints to 29% Lions. Average score: Saints 34 Lions 24. (Probably receive more respect from the kids than any other media, ha)

Atlanta Falcons vs. New York Giants: 50% Falcons to 50% Giants. Average score: Falcons 28 Giants 24.

Houston Texans vs. Cincinnati Bengals: 71% Texans to 29% Bengals. Average score Houston 25 Bengals 19.

Denver Broncos vs. Pittsburgh Steelers: 79% Steelers to 21% Broncos. Average score Steelers 32 Broncos 25.

So I suppose we shall see how the wisdom of children does against the experts and our own picks. Go Lions!

Kids are idiots

Especially kids in Packers coutry. I think they teach them how to make cheese balls in second grade and then just kind of have them wander around in a big room for the rest of their schoolin’

OK, I have to ask…

How old are these kids, and can they wipe their ass without assistance?

yes

"You simply cannot escape it. It's everywhere. There is a feeling the likes of which we haven't seen in decades. Emotions are high. Morale is climbing. People, once again, have something to talk about other than how disastrous our financial situation is and the collapsing of modern society." - Yahoo sports blogger.
