International Philosophy

[demigod2324]

Accused Confucius of having no free will.........lol

[vortexbreak]

RIP Socrates :(

[2dalford]

Nietzsche would say all of us should fear the ubermench!

[padraiggreenwood]

Surely Marx would claim that the goal should be shared equally between the two teams.

[TanoBrati]

I think Nietzsche deserved a red for talking to the ref.

[BatMak23]

While watching this I like to have my spam....spam.....spam spam spam spam (viking choir)

[SlavicFront88]

Hegel should of teamed up with Marx :P

[SlavicFront88]

LOL, Naughty Nietsczhe :P

[stephanalohaatgmail]

LOL... Stephan <3

[k2sexy4u]

somebody please tell me what he is saying sooo fast at the end. all i heard was categorical imperative... something exists only in the imagination...

[DrFruedienslip]

@k2sexy4u I thnk that philosophy is all about any interpretation within being on the same page' Its like this' people dont know how to explain things that we all experience' now is that a parodox? or is it simply confusious saying that confusious is any metaphor for any human malady' any malady is within having a confusing relationship which doesnt make any sense' its a human thing' does a dog know its a dog/

[k2sexy4u]

@DrFruedienslip that didnt answer my question, but i appreciate your point of view...

[aubreydsinger]

"Name go in box!" LOL.

[SleepingZombies]

My Philosophy professor showed this in our first day class..... IT WAS AWESOME

[narutorendan56]

ofcourse, marx as a materialist and realist sees the things as they are.

[cp3shadow]

I think it might be that Marx claiming it was offside is actually a reference to Marx turning 'Hegels philosophy on its head' by claiming that the material leads to ideas not the other away around thus why he was a materialist and hegel was an idealist .

[9enine9]

@cp3shadow But that wasn't Marx idea, claiming that the material leads to ideas. It was actually Ludwig Feuerbach's Idea. He should have been playing, than Germany would have won because Feuerbach's way of playing is inspirational and new, wether Marx just stole his ideas. Once again you see that Luther isn't very versed in football (or philosophy...).

[Scooter7891]

If only I had seen this while taking my philosophy class.

[lazyperfectionist1]

Isn't there also one that pits the Germans against the English? I came across it once but I'm not having any success finding it now.

[kurei2001]

and Confucius he say "Name go in box"

[GrandMaster2350]

@kurei2001 Book not Box...

[DuchessAliana]

Classical philosophy > Modern philosophy :P

[vividDC]

If you are interested in philosophy, search "Truth Contest" in Google and click the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says. Invite everyone you can reach to participate in the contest.

[Apollo580]

"The Germans are disputing it. Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics, Kant via the categorical imperative is holding that ontologically it exists only in the imagination, and Marx is claiming it was offside."

[0zziefan]

It was a tight call (Offside/Onside)

have to give it to the Greeks they dominated by the get go. Germany were effectively a man down when they chose Beckenbauer.

[HELPTHEPICKLEISALIVE]

The look on Beckenbauer's face was brilliant when the match starts off.

[migmg019]

All philophy professors should test their students with this, if they laugh, that means that they get it. (I'm just not too sure about the part about Kant though)

[TomKaren1994]

So many people like the dead parrot sketch... but this one is the best !!

[newperve]

He was offside! Marx was right!

[infradig8]

Beckenbauer was wasted...

[ELcapalla2]

God, I wish today's comedies are as sophisticated as Monty Python.

[XcPromise]

HOW DARE they swap Wittgenstein for Marx! One of the greatest philosophers of all time to a pseudo-philosopher?

[Bense23]

Was still offsides, though... you all knew it. Marx was right.

[Sirbringabel]

Surely Plato should be the man in form?

[Chingophia]

@Sirbringabel hahaha clever XD

[nonamebrand0]

wow, i was at this game

j/k

[Rollride]

I love this skit. Have seen it over 100times.

[enlightenmind5]

i saw this in class :D

[GoodSirGundam]

LOL did not even notice Beckenbauer.

[loqutor]

But...Wittgenstein was Austrian!

[feel194]

@loqutor its "großdeutsches reich" so german is okay

[SteinbrecherBack]

@feel194 Wittgenstein was born in 1889. Which is to say that the idea of one Great German Empire was dead for 18 years at the time of his birth.

[SteinbrecherBack]

@loqutor Epictetus was from Hierapolis (Turkey) and Empedocles was from Acraga (Sicily). So much for that.

[haaseongwoo]

interesting!

[pyrochemists]

"Nietzsche accuses Confucius of having no free will, Confucius say 'name go in book'"

Classic

[rimu5]

Eureka!

[skrufbajs]

THERE'S THE BALL, THERE'S THE BALL

[LeoofAugust]

eurikaaaaaaaa!!!lol

[zahcary]

Marx was completely right, he was offsides. should have been no goal

[duhlhorn]

@zahcary you're wrong.

[wasmachstdugern]

am i wrong or did the greeks score in their own goal?

[fportales90]

@wasmachstdugern it's the second term xD

[zahcary]

it was the second half so they had probably switched sides

[Brak82]

true

[my3tots]

@wasmachstdugern Well, regarding an actual soccer game, I'm not sure. If you mean in a metaphorical sense, it would make sense that a philosopher would "score" with those who thought like him ;)

[PaulLaak]

Haha this one is really funny :) Schopenhauer is quite funny, so is Marx.

What an idea to fix such a video! amazing

[chinwaggerable]

Great goal. It's amazing what a bit of inspiration can do. I particularly like the ball from Heraclitus to Archimedes. It reminds me of Pele's pass to Carlos Alberto in the 1970 world cup final. Archimedes looks like a very good player.

[canadiahung]

@chinwaggerable douche.

[odinsothereye]

"..... and Marx is claiming he was offside." haha

[martini1179]

@odinsothereye Marx would have thought that the goal was more like a bourgeois plot to divide the proletariat.

[Philosophocus]

@martini1179

you've misses the joke then. That comment is hinting at Marx's concluding remarks on the theses on Feuerbach and his abandonment of philosophy.

[Penumbra505]

@odinsothereye hmm, marx called it right.... well broken watch and twice a day and all that.

[YardsaleStudios]

Beckenbauer

LOL

[denisesf5]

I only we had had Khan...(smile)

[PlatoTheForms]

you mean Kant?

[davevontexas]

Nietzche is arguing with the referee...

[lolinacc]

BRUTAL!!

[alialialiaway]

wonderful!!

[patpat76ds]

1:36  Socrates , my favourite player !! haha

[msah1]

Haha...The greeks are going made... :-)

[gheefreak]

I think this is my favorite Python sketch. It's so accurate.

[atomicmatt3]

@gheefreak That's the thing too! You know the Greeks would be the first to say "Hey guys we are playing soccer: Lets talk about this later."

... or they would trick Socrates into thinking something profound had happened, playing off of that Socratic Humility.

[agrobotics]

I'm taking both Greek and German philosophy this summer semester, this is brilliant and hilarious! Big thumbs up.

[Hamakeis]

I was for Germany but Marx entered the game waaaaaay to late.

I'm the with him in the first half, the result of the game would have been reversed.

I'm still bitter though, this game should have been a draw. Socrates WAS way off-side.

[soterios11]

HELLAS!!!!!

[Albertanator]

Go Greece!!!

[BVoe]

epic! classic! brilliant!

[colinniloc99]

brilliant. "...and Marx was claiming he was offsides."

[fathermocker123]

Marx a substitute?To hell with that!

[phantoms93]

i think socrotese was offsides

[naraunig123]

Wittgenstein was no German!

[bellinivernon]

.Exelente ! ; gracias ,desde argentina....

[fntime]

The problem with philosophers, they ask the right questions, but they limit themselves to answers, that only make sense in the 'racinating portion' of their mind. Plato though, was great. The Greeks have more to offer than the Germans. I like Nietzsche though. German philosophers, sending too much time in their 'mind', seem to have pyschological problems. It probably would have helped them as men, if they did play soccer!

[Mauroheck]

I think the goal was offsides; FIFA should resolve the dispute in a philosophical way.

[duhlhorn]

Socrates was in no way offsides; he received the ball from a player who was already past the defence.

[zahcary]

doesnt matter because it was a forward pass to a player in an offside position

[azotos]

"en oida oti ouden oida - the only thing i know is that i don't know anything" Socrates' comment for Carl's claims..

[BillDFC]

The Greek goal was a wonderfull piece of flowing football,fit to win any game.

[kopite2222]

1. Socrates is clearly offsides lol

2. "Beckenbauer obviously a bit of a surprise there" LOL

[Drakodan]

"I feel as if this is more just a clever thing and not really comical. Then again, I am an American"

We can't really expect you to know a lot about Philosophy then, can we?

Not that I'm trying to be racist, but there aren't a great deal of good American Philosophers.

[augustinian2017]

Actually, America has had its fair share of Philosophers. Both William James and Charles Peirce are examples of America's contribution to Philosophy. Though America's quantity of Philosophers hasn't been as high as Britain, for example, the quality is nearly proportional. If it weren't for those like Rorty it might even be higher. Then again, my best Philosophy prof is British...

[Drakodan]

There's also Plantinga, but its still nowhere near the number of philosophers in other regions. The fact that Greece had such a focus on philosophy thousands of years ago, and its largely ignored now, is disheartening.

[augustinian2017]

Funny you should mention Plantinga; for about a week I was convinced his name would be spelled Plantinger because of my prof's british accent. Angus Menuge--great man really--he specializes in logic and the philosophy of mind.

[photrick]

Have you heard of the Pragmatists? If America was around the same time as the ancient Greeks with an established civilization then you would have as many famous Philosophers as any other culture or nation. You have to realize it was the Greeks who established Democracy over 2000 years ago.

[NASOUBAS]

we won!!!

[clemensmann]

Mm. Yes, indeed. But that was really tight. A little humility wouldn't hurt.

[TheGeezre]

the description for this is incorrect. it says "soccer" in Britain and most anywhere else except here, it's called football. why we call it soccer...i have no idea.

[Jezsc]

I feel as if this is more just a clever thing and not really comical. Then again, I am an American

[Alchrat]

"Enlightened Greeks"

[Alchrat]

manager martin luther... LOL

[beodorn]

best footbal match i ever have seen.

and the most funny one.

[bellinivernon]

Exelente ! ; gracias ,desde argentina.

[jansenxvs]

"..and the Germans are disputing it! Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely a priory adjunctive of non-naturalistic ethics. Kant, by the categorical imperative, is holding that it ontologically exists only in the imagination -- and Marx is claiming it was offside."

WIN

[MCdogma77]

I can't stop touting this video.... 7 stars!

[impaledfan666]

LAWL

[MCdogma77]

Really a great video... I never even knew that humor could be this smart and that funny!!! 6-stars!

[MehefinHeulog]

existential philosophy & football, they go together as perfectly as jam & marmlade

....logical positivism is another ball game altogether of course

[johnnyrye]

"...and this is Nietzsche's third booking in four games." LOL :)

[christelwink]

He accused Confusius of having no free will, and Confusius he say "Name go in book!"

lol

[petertopurov]

Eurika from eurisko :)

[cbreezy122112]

existential philosophy & football, they go together as perfectly as butter & jam

[AngryReb1]

Why is our civilization not producing humor like this anymore? Truly, truly genius.

[JPLjanitor]

offside, marx was right

[scribleran]

Right, and I like that Socrates scored off a header.

[MehefinHeulog]

well Ron, in my view Leibitz has never had a chance in that team

that ref Confucious is just a transmitter who invented nothing and he's always had scant regard for the off-side rule

[12cacho12]

beckenbauer obviously a little bit of a surprise there

ahaaaa

[toxicated01]

"Here's Marx; Lets see if he can put some light in this German attack- evidently not."

"The Germans are disputing it. Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics, Kant via the categorical imperative is holding that ontologically it exists only in the imagination, and Marx is claiming it was offside."

LOL BEST SKETCH EVER

[ikegraham]

...and Marx is claiming it was offside."  LMAO. Such great comedica timing.

[i620793]

Marx is right.

[iSago]

This is pure genius.

[Tunze73]

Congenial!

[SongOfStorms425]

EUREKA!

[TomLocura]

best vid...ever

Fodi-me a rir com este video. Aahhahaha

[larrybagina]

ja eu fodi a sua mae

[Freizer16]

Estas a mentir, pk ela morreu no parto seu atrasado mental! nem te tinha ofendido

[larrybagina]

Opa, desculpa-la te confundi com outro gajo que fodi a mae, nao foi tu nao

[Freizer16]

As desculpas n se pedem, evitam-se.

[larrybagina]

Ja falei que foi um engano, nao precisa me ofender caralio.

[fabiokosovo]

sois todos gays

[Deusex86]

WTF this is soooo ilarious!

[DanDYpr88]

ahuahuahuahu bellissimo

[lebolax]

What is the word for word dispute by Hegel?

All I can understand is: Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunctive.....

Thanks

[LordChozo]

"Hegel is arguing that the reality is merely an a priori adjunct of non-naturalistic ethics."

[lazyconquistador]

I'm glad they put Leibniz and his stupid monads in the goal.

[faddy24]

The tackling was non existant for the greek goal. Shocking defending ha ha

[IsCumaFut2]

Beckenbaur how did they get him fantastic

[intheatremode]

"And Marx is complaining it was offsides."

LOL

[pcroyaljets]

The referee Confucious checks his sand....

[444DeanMachine]

this is incredibly funny! I agree they don't make it like this anymore

[AvmanM]

Why did the English midfield not also include John Stuart Mill and Bertrand Russell? Or did they play in attack or defense?

[Iker888]

english midfield?

[AvmanM]

At the end the commentator notes that the Germans had triumphed against the English midfield trio of (Jeremy) Bentham, (John) Locke and (Thomas) Hobbes. That's why I asked about Mill and Russell. (Locke was Scottish by the way).

[ppatt78]

they just dont make comedy like this anymore

[FireGuy90]

no kidding, but then you need a scant bit of intellect to find this funny...something thats been absent from television for awhile now

[palimony]

haha the replay was different from the orginal goal

[humanitiesnerd]

"and Marx just claims it was offside." So brilliant! I love that Martin Luther is the manager for the German team! St. Augustine and Thomas Aquinas as the linesmen! Great!

[dubya3cdotcom]

You think Marx would suggest the goal be distributed equally and Shapenhauer (I am typing quickly) claiming all are the same there for all scored.

[zaika5]

Beckenbauer obviously a bit of surprise there

[ktototutajtaktupie]

why ain't they playing on Euro 2008?! ;]

[ElPichula69]

Jajajaajajjajajaja, sencillamente BRILLANTE!!!

[hgfhsdfsdsh]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAAH­...Archimedes has and idea...EVRIKA!!! HAHAHAHAH

[Reicita]

ñoñoooo

[pulenyo]

realmente hermoso

[GREENgummydrop]

very clever :D

[wolfgar2]

This ranks as one of the most intelligent, clever, and accurate pieces of humor I have ever seen. Nietzsche accuses the referee of having no free will...brilliant!

[huesoscarrasco]

and Marx claims it's offside, lol

[marimeister]

what a riot! Marx and Nietzche, the studs.

[usulordo]

Brilliant!
