Giamlarrahan Posted 6 March, 2014 Share Posted 6 March, 2014 For my dissertation project I quizzed Matt Le Tissier, Franny Benali, Neil Maddison, Gordon Watson and Nigel Spackman on philosophy. They had to answer five football-themed philosophical questions and were given no longer than a minute to answer each one. They were then given points by a philosophy expert, forming a league table. The outcome is pretty funny so I'd appreciate it if you gave it a watch! Each episode is 7 - 8 minutes long. http://footballvsphilosophy.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintbletch Posted 6 March, 2014 Share Posted 6 March, 2014 That was excellent Glam.., Lianhag.., larryhananm..., mate. I really enjoyed that. Very professionally put together and good fun. A little bit repetitive, but nothing that fast forward couldn't fix. Franny didn't come across too well though; stupid Kant. But tell me, if you're the manager of a football team that has Roman Abramovich as Chairman, and you are about to pick the starting 11, is there really such a thing as free will?

Halo Stickman Posted 7 March, 2014 Share Posted 7 March, 2014 Excellent work, Gianlarrahan! I thought all the participants performed their roles well, with MLT, naturally, being head and shoulders above the rest. It would be good to see the five parts spliced into one, with the repetitive bits deleted. Suggestions for a follow up: 1/ With a nod to bletch, above, it would be interesting to see those blokes answering the free will / determinism question, especially as regards to, say, MLT’s penalties. 2/ With a nod to Monty Python, you could ask: “Which great opponent of Cartesian dualism resists the reduction of psychological phenomena to a physical state and insists there is no point of contact between the extended and the unextended… and do you think HCDAJFU? All the best with the dissertation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
