Today, my new calculus teacher taught everything using nothing but soccer terms and analogies, just so the resident idiot meatheads would understand. I didn't learn a thing. FML
okay, just because one student has trouble understanding doesn't mean the whole class should have to be subject to that. maybe you could volunteer as a tutor or refer to a math help center>

After all soccer is a game we let children play till they can handle a real sport like football.
Your professor is working with the children so they can step up with the big boys.
#3 I concur maybe op is the meathead. Soccer is a smart sport that has many strategies. the fact that the person thinks soccer = meat head shows how stupid op is in the first place.
Just because some one is an athlete does not mean they are a "meathead". Athletes have to keep certain grades to even play and I bet most are a lot smarter and actually do something with their lives than kids that just go to school and do nothing else.
A great mind once said something along these lines: 'Everyone is intelligent in their own ways, but if you judge a fish by it's ability to climb a tree, it will spend it's life believing it is stupid' I thought it fit.
How soccer works. Crybaby is on the ground for 5 minutes crying about a broken ankle while the rest of his team hounds the ref for a red card. On the replay crybaby isn't touched by anyone but the ref gives in and awards the red card and a penalty kick. As soon as the red card goes up crybaby stops crying and jumps off his stretcher to take the penalty kick.
Actually I've watched a lot of soccer, to my great dismay, and I've come to the conclusion that girls highschool players are tougher than "pro" male players. Seriously, fuck giving Oscars to actors give 'em to soccer "players."
I will say the sport isn't bad to play, but watching pro soccer makes me hate the sport because of the amount of twattery.
That's because you don't understand the pride of being a rugger. I'll take cauliflower ears, concussions, broken noses, and surgeries over "pretending" any day of the week.
"With the break-away, he's taking the derivative of the angular momentum of his legs to find the velocity of the ball. He differentiates in time! He solves!"
Ask him to teach the class again - normally.
If he's not going to consider all his students then you should be in a different class and he can have a class full of meatheads.
I think it was supposed (or was it unintended?) to be were OP writes "GOOOOOO...OOOL" and then he gets an A+... Meaning he gets an added A, so "GOOOL" becomes "GOOOOAL" but I highly doubt it was intentional.
Report that teacher to the principle. That's some major bull crap. You shouldn't have to suffer because other people can't pick up basic concepts of math as you can. FYL indeed.
Also, I adored the lessons where my professors made the concepts they were teaching relevant to real-life situations. It's better than the idiotic hypothetical problems that would never ever happen.
