<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>The best and brightest college football players are gathering today at the NFL Scouting Combine in Indianapolis, where general managers and scouts will ask them the one question that matters most:"Is 11 p.m. before or after midnight?" Seriously. That was the first question on the infamous Wonderlic Test a few years back, and when Harvard punter Pat McInally saw that, he figured he'd be in good shape the rest of the way. But he made a terrible error.He scored a 50 -- the only perfect score in NFL history on the test -- which made most GMs think he was too smart. His stock plummeted in the draft.So if you can understand what team officials are looking for ... well, you're probably too smart, too. Truth is, they might not know. Vince Young reportedly scored a 6, then a 16, on the test. He was the top rookie in the NFL last year. Eli Manning, meanwhile, scored a 37. And yes, they're still testing.It struck us that maybe the league is asking the wrong questions, so we came up with a new test that more accurately determines if a prospect is truly ready for the rigors of professional football (the real test has 50, but come on, that's too long):1. Coach Coughlin says the meeting will begin at 2 p.m. What time does the meeting begin?A) 2 p.m. 1:55 p.m.C) Didn't that dude get fired? 2. This figure (O) is:A) A circle. A football.C) A square.D) Britney's new haircut.3. Tiki Barber has a $10 million contract with NBC. If agent Mark Lepselter gets 10 percent, it means ...A) Lepselter earns $1 million. Lepselter earns $100,000.C) Lepselter earns bus fare home.D) Tiki is paying this guy waaaay too much. 4. If Super Bowl XLI was held this year, then how many Super Bowls have there been?A) ex-elle-aye. 12.C) 41.D) I'm out of fingers and toes.5. Which is the shortest?A) A minute. A second.C) A nanosecond.D) A Bill Belichick-Eric Mangini handshake. 6. The new coach of the Oakland Raiders is:A) Lane Kiffin. Steve Sarkisian.C) John Madden Jr.D) Totally screwed.7. Which of these words is different from the others:A) Hummer. Escalade.C) Navigator.D) Prius. 8. Archie greets Eli. Peyton greets Archie. Did Peyton greet Eli?A) Yes. No.C) Cannot be determined.D) Please don't use them in the same sentence.9. Tom Brady is:A) A future Hall of Fame quarterback. A three-time Super Bowl winner.C) My daddy.D) All of these. 10. If a Falcons player leaves his Miami hotel room at 6 p.m. Eastern time walking toward Ocean Drive at 3 mph while a Bengals player leaves his Las Vegas hotel room at 3 p.m. Pacific time headed for the Strip at the same speed, which of the two will get arrested first?A) The Bengal. The Falcon.C) The retired Raider vacationing in Hawaii.11. Terrell Owens' worst career move was:A) Leaving the 49ers. Hiring Drew Rosenhaus.C) Alienating Bill Parcells.D) That children's book.12. When heading to the airport, you should always remember: A) Your I.D. Your iPod. C) Your playbook.D) Not to say "Yes" if Michael Vick asks you to hold his water bottle.13. Which of the following is acceptable to have around children?A) Rattles. Assault rifles.C) Tanks.D) Tank Johnson.14. If you see Jay-Z, Jamie Foxx and Brad Pitt at a Super Bowl party, you shouldA) Be sure to praise the rapper's latest album. Congratulate Jamie for his Oscar nomination. C) Remember with Brad: It's Angelina, not what's her face from "Friends."D) Leave ... because you'd be the poorest dude in the room.15. This test was:A) Much harder than my finger-painting class. An important tool that judges my intelligence.C) A complete waste of time.D) Hey, can I keep this pencil?</div>
lol. The questions were kinda funny. Seriously though, People underrate the Wonderlic because of a couple stupid questions aimed to trip up those who rush through it. Sure it's not a tell-all of a players abilities, but the 2 coaches consistently at the top of the average Wonderlic score in their draft picks is Eric Mangini and Bill Belicheck and they both did pretty well last year.

Some of these questions are dumb. On last years test, some of the questions were math problems I could do with ease in 5th grade
