homeschooled


There are basically 2 "camps" of homeschool advocates.

You have your wingnut holy rollers who feel that traditional schools are too "liberal" and whatnot, such as the Tebows. These people, while giving their kids some cool opportunities (circumcising "natives", for example), probably do more harm than good, from an intellectual/educational perspective.

Then there are the really intellectual "liberal" parents who raise exceptionally gifted kids and don't feel that the traditional educational system can provide their kids the opportunities they need to develop.

Generalizing, of course, but that's the way I see it.

Btw, Marino and Jim Kelly got 15s. McNabb got a 14. Matt Leinart scored a 35.

Just saying.

this test is absurdly easy though, anyone getting <20 is just sad. Makes u wonder how they scored high enough on their standardized test to get into school.

I've always considered this test score just an excuse a team needs to move a guy they don't like for whatever reason, down their draft board. This way, when asked why they didn't draft him, they can say "We didn't like his Wonderlic score."
