What I got out of all of this is that I couldn't hate Pat McAfee more. The guy absolutelyfricking sucks as a human being.

He needs to GO AWAY.

I thought he was trying to give a nice little lesson on per centum and how the word percent came to be.


I wasn’t prepared for how stupid this guy was.

How can one not figure out that it’s somewhat based off 100 when talking through stats? Or in school?

Idk how it’s possible for someone to miss this.




i thought he was going to go into some ancient greek shite about how cent came to mean hundred etc......nope ole Dan is just dumb af

his face when the guy said yea 2 out of 3 is 66% but if you keep going there is a 100 in there......was classic, a total wtf moment where you realize you are the dumbest one in the room by far :rotflmao:

An astounding number of people are totally mathematics illiterate

I don't think you should be able to graduate from high school without being able to manage basic fractions and percentages

The best part is the entire crew is just as dumb. It took forever but they eventually guessed percent is based on 100 but they still weren't sure.

They are all too dumb to take seriously.

Because McAfee wouldn't shut up about it. He's the guy who just pushes any situation way too far.

I'm sure he will be crushed to know KCRoyalBlue doesn't like him.

I thought he was going to discuss the etymological origins of the word percent. It's from the Latin, per centum, meaning every hundred, blah, blah, blah. Nope, this austere UConn scholar has no fricking clue what percentages are. When a West Virginia dropout looks at you like "you stupid"...

I honestly wouldn't give a single frick about what he knows, thinks he knows, or doesn't know at all.
