Who is the smartest person you know in real life?

We were just sitting here talking about getting someone to do some work we have... and I thought this might be a good topic for the huddle.

I've known a guy, name is John, since like 1995. He's about 60 years old now... he's a programmer/GIS specialist that I've worked with off and on for many years. My old boss, who worked with him for even longer said that they once took IQ tests in the early 90's when they both worked for Westinghouse and John's IQ was 180.

This guy has a photographic memory and I've seen it in action... he could remember stuff like specific lines of code we had written like 7 or 8 years previous. I can call him anytime and have him write programs and batch files that do exactly what I want... it's pretty cool actually.

Who do you know?

My oldest sister, brains for miles. Deans list at UNC-CH, went to Duke for a summer smart kid program while in Jr High.

I've had specialists tell me since I was in 5th grade that I have a photographic memory. Never believed it until I started playing music

Smart or Intelligent. IMO there is a difference.

Smart people figure out how to make the best of life wheather it means making money, living in certain areas, or being healthy.

Intelligent people can read code, remember certain things that don't mean anything, are good at Cross Word puzzles.

Big difference.

One of my best friends. Brilliant. Witty as hell too. It seemed he could have an in depth conversation about anything and he wasn't bull pooting you either. He had degrees in something with computers, another in philosophy and a law degree. Found out from his parents he had a super high IQ, which wasn't all surprising. Not because of his degrees, you could tell he was smart just from conversation.

However he killed himself. Too smart for his own good. He was awesome.

      Draft Taylen Green

      By micnificent28 · Posted

      My tailoring green idea was not for him to be the starter but to add some value beyond just a developmental quarterback I think size speed is something Bryce doesn't have he has those and would immediately feel the fourth and one package and possibly red zone and some power packages for us

      Do you have against Willis I believe you're around when we have the draft with corral and Willis were on the board and me personally I was banging the table for Willis as early as round one but a lot of people thought corral was better but it's amazing with a little coaching and time can do with me I always go with potential and upside versus oh the guy just plays football you know sometimes that's not enough

      Would kenyon sadiq fill 2 needs?

      By micnificent28 · Posted

      I know or needs and this probably isn't with a lot of people want but if he's available at 19 I don't think you can discount that he would be the best player on the board I think with 43 speed he's as fast as leggette. 63240 something he would stretch the field  Strike fear over the middle of opposing linebackers and also probably cure our long time history of no serviceable tight end since Greg Olsen I think a lot of needs like tackle maybe linebacker could be filled and free agency to the point like they did last year where we fix a lot of this and draft the best player we can on the board.  After his combine and the numbers in the 43-in vertical I'm not sure that he will be available but if he is I bet that he's highly considered what say you
