The Philosophers’ Football Match


Famous German philosophers (and one actual footballer) face off against the favoured Greek squad in this sketch from “Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl” (originally from their “Fliegender Zirkus”).

    Alguém tinha que ter pelo menos uma idéia kkk

  4. DrFugue Says:

    actually, if the dribbler with the ball has already beaten the last defender, there is not such thing as offsides, archimedes had already gotten past the last guy, so it doesn’t matter where Socrates is, he is onsides no matter what.

  5. KKiwistone Says:

    @klank99 As you can see, Socrates is ahead of Archimedes, and infront of all the germans. Pretty clear offside

  6. klank99 Says:

    How was Socrates offside?

  7. DamageIINC Says:

    so we can learn : marx was actually right :P

  8. broadmore Says:

    Socrates was actully offside !!

  9. mercapri302 Says:

    “and Marx is claiming he was offside.”

    haha beckenbauer is only there because of all of his quotes in german magazines and the press… he talks so much BS that it’s almost philosophical

  11. Guaguanco11 Says:

    Q.E.D.

  12. Guaguanco11 Says:

    The only one I know is Walter Carnielli who is a top class logician. But maybe they get to include Socrates in their team who obtained a degree in philosophy after his retirement from futebol.

  13. Shadowhog Says:

    What philosophers?

  14. BillDFC Says:

    This reminded me when Antartica played Siberia in the same tournament in an earlier tie…both sides were so niave they played football for the whole 90 minutes! What a meaningless,boring game! The match ended in a pointless 4-4 draw.
    Thank God.,if he exists,for two classic sides like these two here.

  15. Linkster2o Says:

    I love seeing Nietzsche getting into a conflict with the refs, fairly appropriate.

  16. denisesf5 Says:

    We needed Khan. (smile)

  17. 69chevysrule Says:

    socrates WAS offsides

  18. lickdeznuts Says:

    But where are the Germans getting their motivation from to argue its no goal in the first place? Confucius awarding the goal is an act no less or more real than the ball finding the back of the net. For the Germans to argue no goal, they have to testify to the reality of Confucius awarding the goal. You can’t deny the goal’s reality, and yet accept the reality of Confucius’ awarding it.
    Either accept both, or deny both. And if it’s the latter you choose, then theres nothing to argue about LOL

    i love this video wittgenstien gets substituted for Karl marx

  20. wallavious Says:

    haha

  21. ItStartsWithL Says:

    this is quite an interesting way of playing sport

  22. ironjohnlad Says:

    thats funny !

  23. Guaguanco11 Says:

    This is one version of futebol where Brazil wouldn’t dominate. With due respect to the philosophers of Brazil, they don’t have a very strong team.

  24. ColbertGamer Says:

    Also ironic was that he was arrested and executed by the greek government.

  25. TimMegrelidze Says:

    This is amazing.

    There are some attention-grabbing closing dates in this article but I don’t know if I see all of them middle to heart. There may be some validity but I’ll take hold opinion until I look into it further. Good article , thanks and we want extra! Added to FeedBurner as well

    Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.

  28. ten minute phobia cure Says:

    The following time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I imply, I know it was my option to read, but I actually thought youd have one thing attention-grabbing to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you might fix should you werent too busy searching for attention.
