Frank Lampard is smarter than you

By: Jack | March 6th, 2009

Move over Ben Franklin. Albert Einstein and Leonardo Da Vinci, too.  There’s a new man joining the brethren of genius.

According to the Daily Star, Frank Lampard has recorded one of the highest IQ scores ever. Dr. Bryan English conducted intelligence tests on the entire Chelsea squad, only to find out Super Frank was, in fact, smarter than he was.

“Frank Lampard scored one of the highest sets of marks ever recorded by the company doing the tests, and higher than me,” English said.

He refused to reveal Lamps’ score, but sources suggest it easily surpassed 150 on the IQ scale. The British national average is 100, putting him in the most intelligent 0.1 percent of the population.

DAMN. So not only is Franky a certified genius on the pitch, he’s a brainiac off it too. Any thoughts on what Stevie Me’s IQ is?

Thanks to frequent visitor/contributor Dave for the spot.

    @ steven – Brilliant!

    Original article notes purpose: “The doc wanted to study how playing the game affects players’ brain power.” Sooo, did they have an earlier test, or are they being tested again in the future? Hm…

    An IQ of 150 actually puts him in the top 0.0000287% of the population (meaning that, theoretically, there are only something like 20 people more intelligent than him in the UK). Where they got 0.1% from I don’t know, but the alarm bells start ringing when they make a mistake like; the other being, of course, claiming that Lampard has an IQ of at least 150…

    Oh no, I don’t have an IQ high enough to do so. Frank helped me out.

    Right, because you all have conversed so deeply with Frank that you’re in a pole position to judge his intelligence. I’m sure half of you mugs have hardly even heard the man speak. True Chelsea fans (and those unbiased and open to possibilities) know that Frank is a highly-articulate individual who exudes an aura of confidence and intelligence on and off the field, so why not? You’re all just a bunch of bandwagon boo-boys, and I’d love to know what your IQs are…

    Judging by the picture, the rumor must be true. “C’mon, Frank, show me genius.”
