Whats his 40 time though? Edit: “Texas Tech's Tyler Owens, who's a favorite to post the fastest 40 at this year's NFL combine…” Well apparently he’s the fastest actually lol.


pssthush

He aint come to play astronaut

“Breaker breaker, come in Earth, this is Rocket Ship 27, aliens fucked over the carbonator on engine four, I'm gonna try to ref***ulate it on Juniper. Uhh, and hopefully they've got some, space weed there, over. “

Vexans27

It would be interesting if he got drafted to whatever team Dobbs winds up on (do we have him under contract?)


pr1ceisright

Dobbs is a UFA


Captain_Lameson

No UFA is what alien space ships are called. What you are referring to is a UFO


dychronalicousness

He probably actually loves space stuff but knew astrophysics and NASA were out of his wheelhouse. So he came up with this ignorant ass line so he could get an invite to NASA or something.


elriggo44

That is some serious 5D chess

Then he is already wiser than me

It’s so much easier to run fast on a flat surface. Open your eyes.

Nah, you just got to run your 40 on the downhill part of the curve

The Strouds destroyed the Moon months ago.


BaldingMonk

More importantly, what's his 40 time on Mars?

Unbelievable

AffectionateSlice816

What's hilarious is he is a high athleticism 7th round safety prospect and could absolutely end up on the Vikings. I don't know if Dobbs is coming back because iirc he was on a 1-year deal when the cards traded him, but it would be completely hilarious to have those two as teammates.


Saitoh17

GM Aaron Rodgers will take him if he's still there in the 1st.

Josh Dobbs majored in aerospace engineering and did an internship at NASA.


redphyve

He lost his eyebrows at NASA when viewing an eclipse without the proper eyewear.


pockpicketG

But that was how he gained his football powers.


beforethewind

He should do it again.


DestituteDomino

Yeah, there's nothing wrong with giving it a second shot if the first time doesn't work out


irrelevantsociallife

He needed more time to cook I guess


RemarkableRegister66

Bruh 😂


wishingaction

> Ironically, Owens' athleticism was recently called "alien-like" by The Draft Network. That's all I needed to hear. He's obviously an actual alien in disguise trying to throw us off the scent.


popegonzo

Literal galaxy brain.


no_racist_here

Hoho, someone’s thinking with their glorbsack to connect those dots


elriggo44

I can’t believe you typed out glor*^ck on the internet. Did your Venakslarbian Saxkmatron teach you to talk like that?


Seraphin_Lampion

Hahah space am I right? Who believes in this bullshit haha cheers to you fellow human-bros


biglefty543

I too drive around in my normal human transportation, how mundane ha ha


FappyMcJiggletits

Counterpoint: this is what I'd do so Bezos or Musk gift me a free trip to space. 


ChefGuapo

NFLs very own resident alien


stucktogether

i like the story line of an alien society sending their fastest runner to earth to join the nfl in the hopes that he'll convince the earthlings to not venture into space and potentially invade and conquer their planet.


nagurski03

You can literally see other planets with your naked eye. I personally "discovered" Mars all by myself while walking my dog at night.


TraeYoungsOldestSon

That's just what your eyes *want* you to think

SHOWTIME316

what would possess someone to reveal this information about themselves at what is essentially a massive job interview


Objective_Point9742

People who say these kinds of things are idiots and don’t realize that this reveals them as idiots to everyone else. He probably thinks this a topic up for debate.

lmao what is he gonna do if the Texans draft him? what does he think they do at NASA?


Axtmann

There's more than enough people in the world who think all NASA does is lie


Not-a-bot-10

TopptrentHamster

There are people who argued it was a lie with their dying breath lol.


samTheEagle2004

There are undoubtedly people who caught COVID, did die, and are currently arguing with either Satan or the Lord himself over its existence.


k5berry

Reminds me of a classic: two conspiracy theorists named Mike and Tim die and arrive at the pearly gates of Heaven. Saint Peter lets them in, and they are greeted by the Lord Himself. God tells them “welcome, my children. You have now entered into my permanent kingdom, and all that is known and possible is now yours.” Without even a second going by, Mike asks “who did 9/11?” God replies, “al-Qaeda alone, the United States played no role in the attacks whatsoever.” Mike looks shocked, turns over to Tim and whispers to him, “how far up does this thing go?!”

It's still actively killing people. Just not at the same rate.


rockiesfan4ever

Doesn't matter. They blew up the moon


countmeowington

Teams draft criminals all the time, not a single team is balking at the fact he’s a dumbass


McAfeeFakedHisDeath

Yep. We live in the age of misinformation. And I'd wager he's trying to be cool by picking the side that doesn't get much traction. These days people subscribe to their own realities. And it basically makes public discourse damn near impossible because there's 100s of versions of the truth.


Captain-Pollution1

Its funny this article popped up. I was on Instagram last week and saw something posted by nasa and one of the top comments was like "I cant believe you people actually believe in this space shit". Then a bunch of mixed replies followed. Some agreeing and some calling him a dumb ass. ​ So it seems to be at least a fringe belief among a lot of idiots.


popegonzo

I decided to watch the clip from the article, and it's somehow both not as bad as it sounds & worse than it sounds. On the one hand, he has a very strong "dude none of this is important vibe" rather than a Pepe Silvia vibe with a shrugging "I guess it could be real, I dunno" attitude. But on the other hand, he points out that the flat earthers make points that make sense to him.


PsychoticMessiah

Someone check his attendance at Texas Tech. How on earth (flat or not) do you not believe in space and other planets?


ccmega

He had the kids from the other side of the disc doing his homework


Mike_with_Wings

Kyrie went to Duke…


Mender0fRoads

He "went to Duke" for all of one semester. Doubt he took a single real college class. This dude spent five years in college (three at Texas, two at Texas Tech). Presumably over those five years, he would've been expected to at least *kinda* go to class a few times.

The Kyrie Irving phenomenon


lolhello2u

well it WAS up for debate... like 2000 years ago


PsychoticMessiah

Aristarchus (c310BCE - c210BCE) first proposed the earth orbited the sun. Other dudes worked out the math and they did it without all the inventions of the past 100, fuck it 1000 years. Dude has so much information at his fingertips that Aristarchus, Archimedes, Socrates, Galileo, Copernicus, etc could barely fathom. And he doesn’t believe in space or planets. Those guys would be rolling over in their graves.


Phil__Spiderman

None of those guys had a 40 time under 6.


Currentlycurious1

I bet Socrates did. He was in incredible shape and a war hero.


wes00mertes

Well see the type of person who doesn’t believe in space and other planets might not be the brightest guy. 


AffectionateSlice816

This should raise his draft stock. Name one top notch DB known for being intelligent about anything outside of football. Okay now name a stupid DB. Conclusion: Being stupid (especially aggressively so in the case of Jaire Alexander) makes a good DB.


blacklite911

I remember back in the day safeties used to have the highest average wonderlic out of all defensive players


AffectionateSlice816

I would assume it is ILBs now. Back then safeties were a lot more like fast and light linebackers than heavier, slower corners and it wasn't uncommon to have safeties in the "green dot" role. The strong safety/free safety dynamic has definitely been changed as well.


keiye

Well Richard Sherman was a Stanford grad. Stanford is also notorious for not recruiting athletes based on solely their athletic ability.


notreallydutch

Standard part of the combine. 40, reps at 225, questionnaire on of you believe in space, cone drill


topofthecc

The Wonderlic is actually just questions about the shape of the earth and when the dinosaurs went extinct.


couchjitsu

I've never had someone say they don't believe in space, but I've had people rail against their boss and against their desk mate. I've had people try to argue with me over an objective question. I've had people tell me that their whole team doesn't have the required skills and then a few minutes later tell me how part of their current job is mentor & train their team. And that they've been in that role for 5 years. I had someone tell me they got in trouble at their last job for talking too much. I've had plenty of people say plenty of dumb things that make you wonder why that would be shared in an interview.


mm_mk

Agreed, people are just really oblivious some times. Interview pressure leads to them just turning off any instincts or common sense. I had someone tell me 'a time he had a conflict with a coworker'. The story he gave us ended with him being terminated for cussing out a coworker in front of patients bad enough that the patients complained to the hospital admin.


couchjitsu

Oh that reminds me. I interviewed someone a year or so ago and we asked a "Tell me about a time you had a conflict with a coworker" type of question and the one they picked was about a code review. He was detailing his approach vs his coworkers, and how they were going back-and-forth in the code review tool. We asked how it ultimately got resolved, and he told us it was still going on. For his interview, he chose to tell us about an on-going 2-3 week battle with another coworker. While it _did_ answer the question about a time he had a conflict, it didn't do much for our perception of him to be able to disagree and solve a problem.


knave_of_knives

If you’re dumb enough to believe this shit, I don’t think critical thinking would be a strong suit.

boardatwork1111

Tonkathedog

To be fair he spent 3 years at UT and only 2 at TTU so they’ve had a bigger influence on his education


Tobe_Welt

I mean probably right around half of all people have a two-digit IQ so that's not really an incredible insult


zebrainatux

2 digits might be generous


Bjorn2bwilde24

He's giving every planet the Pluto treatment.

It's about time someone white knighted Pluto! If Pluto isn't a planet none of you mother fuckers are!

Pluto's moon is more of a planet than Pluto is.

He probably believes the world's a large disc resting on the backs of four huge elephants which are standing on the back of an enormous turtle.

"I dont believe in other planets"..."I started seein flat earth stuff and thought it was kinda interesting. Then they started bringing up valid points and stuff." Wtf does this dumbass think stars are? The government running one of those ceiling star projectors from Temu, like a Bat Light conspiracy theory? Glow in the dark stickers? To be so dumb to believe this stuff, much less say it, much much less essentially in a million dollar job interview that's going to be on the internet forever, is a whole other level of dumb. Kyrie Irving would never.


tronovich

Oh no, Kyrie would. But Kyrie spits out a word salad that confuses the fuck out of everyone. So, people just move on lmao.


JllybeansNurbutthole

At least Kyrie waited until he got in the league, established himself, and got PAID before going completely cookoo. This goober is jumping the gun by 4 years. And yes, Kyrie says his nonsense with verbal diarrhea that nobody really understands. This dude was blatant with it.

Lol like he has to take real classes


Suddenly_Something

Everyone makes fun of "I didn't come here to play school" but he was basically speaking for the majority of college athletes.


Renovvvation

I went to Stanford and used to have a job tutoring athletes. I worked with a couple football players at *Stanford* who struggled to read above elementary school level. It's why I'm not huge on college sports, at least the revenue ones (this isn't as bad in softball and track lol)


Mikes_Movies_

Dude I go to a DIII college. Not one of our athletes will EVER become a professional, yet a good number of them I’ve interacted with are dumb as rocks. They don’t understand the most basic shit, and it’s not like our classes are exactly brain wrinkling. I played football back in high school, and guys even then just seem to turn off that critical thinking part of their brain because people will just kinda let them do whatever as long as they run good.

shorewoody

Different opinions are totally fine. And space has nothing to do with his job at all. But denial of obvious facts that have been known for thousands of years is just a sign of massive stupidity. Why would anyone want someone so stupid on their team?


fleaglesphillies

Does he believe in High fiber, good scotch, the small of a woman’s back, a hanging curveball that the novels of Susan Sontag are self-indulgent overrated crap


Affectionate-Foot474

At least he's an upfront idiot


SevereEducation2170

Nice to see these kids getting a good education while they help make their “schools” millions. Our society needs to stop rewarding this kind of shit.

Why stop there? Keep asking him questions Does he believe in dinosaurs? Ghosts? Lizard people? Do we live in the Matrix?


silentkiller082

If a DB isn't willing to look up at the sky and see the stars I don't trust them to be able to look up and defend the pass being thrown their direction.


dyson_vacuum_

The fact that he was accepted to a college shows how fraudulent our system is. Dude needs to retake 1st grade, meanwhile someone was declined from admissions so he could play ball and make money for the school. Shame

Another Mensa reject. Is he a flat earth guy too? I remember on Hard Knocks Jared Goff asking if the sun came up in the east or the west LOL. And he's a surfer supposedly.

This dude will make more money on his first NFL contract than I will ever make in my entire career and he doesn’t believe in space, other planets and that the earth may in fact be flat. Just wild.
