"Massey, Thaler, and Romer's works have been known for more than a
decade, but NFL football coaches and owners still show near universal
hesitance to adopt their advice. For all its high stakes, pro football
is very much a conservative sport. Tradition trumps reason. Football is
powerful, irrational, and instinctual, with an almost animal magnetism.
Perhaps that's what keeps us watching."

Human knowledge has progressed exponentially since the dawn of modern science. It is no longer reasonable to accept claims without sufficient objective evidence. The harm from religion, alternatives to medicine, conservatism, and all other false beliefs will be exposed on this blog by reporting the findings of science. This blog will also reinforce what should be the basics of education: History, Civics, Financial Literacy, Media Literacy, and Critical/Science Based Thinking.
