You're talking about the difference between knowledge and the skill of applying it in practice. I know what you mean. Lots of well-educated people who, despite having all the facts to reach the conclusion, can't figure it out for the life of them - they never learned crticial thinking or questioning and just don't see the connection between facts. I think it was Bill Maher who talked about the smart stupid person, on the book about coming back from heaven which was written by a neurosurgeon.
But still, I disagree on the notion that intelligent people can't enjoy football.
But I think we digress. So, 50 shits of Grey...
