Yea I know the inventor of Facebook went to Harvord and clearly not everyone who is going to Harvord is going to do lame brain stuff like this.

But on a side not as to why I will never watch that movie. I feel there is the start of a trend to ignore issues in the county/state/nation/world. And just wait for the movie on the subject to come out. Dude did you hear about this guy who made facebook, he's being sued... No, I'll just wait for the movie about to come out. Hear about flight 93? Don't tell me it's on tonight at 7 and I don't wanna know if they make it or not. <-Clearly sliperly slope--

Idk, I'm thinking about basket weaving..."

Actually, considering its sports analysis, I'm willing to bet most of the people working in the collective majored in Statistics (or similar majors)

EDIT: from their website

HSAC is a student-run organization at Harvard College dedicated to the quantitative analysis of sports strategy and management. This blog features the original contributions of Harvard undergraduates, graduates, faculty, and affiliates. HSAC does research for several sports-related publications and companies.

Hmm pretty sure I didn't state a plan to quit college and spend my life figuring out what this guy was think.

What I did state was while traveling to my yahoo account an article was listed on their main page about MJ. I took a peak and found it interesting that someone spend the time going through the movie to determine this error and someone else thought it important enough to write an article about to appear in yahoo's news section.

Like I said interesting, I posted to see if other's felt the same as I did. Did I plan on a debate, no. Did I get one, eh there is a spark perhaps. You have a problem with that, TFB get over it.

So this is actually a common practice?

That is the silliest bullshit reason I've ever heard for not watching a good movie.

Haha, true but hey think about it. Why watch news on the barefoot bandit when you can just wait for the movie? I can see some links to why I watch the movie and don't read the book.

I could literally punch you in the face...

Actually, you probably shouldn't watch it if you think that the only thing the movie is about is "this guy who made facebook who's getting sued". Yeah. You should probably stay away from it.
