	Another reason I love Sporcle: It introduces me to new and hilarious comedy sketches!

	This is my alltime favorite Monty Python sketch. Bravo! Confucius he say, name go in book.

	What about the referees as bonus answers? They were Kung Fu Tsu Confucius, and his two linesmen, St Augustine and St Thomas Aquinas.

	I was really hoping Greece would score a meaningful goal this Copa Mundial so I could say "THE GREEKS ARE GOING MAD!!!!"

	Beckenbauer was a bit of a surprise there... But surely Socrates captained Brazil...?

	Socrates scores, got a beautiful cross from Archimedes. 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------Ahhh poor Marx. One of the all time best bits Python ever did.

	Immanual Kant was a real pissant who was very rarely stable. Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar who could drink you under the table. David Hume could outconsume Schopenhauer and Hegel, And Wittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as schlossed as Schlegel! There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raisin' of the wrist... And thats how I learned all MY German philosophers.

	Martin Luther as the manager of the German team as a bonus?

	I think the officials should be legit answers. But as a philosophy major I enjoyed this no matter what!!! Thanks.

	Not to be pedantic, but wasn't Wittgenstein Austrian rather than German?

	turner89:	Jul 12th, 2010 at 00:55 GMT		2 points
	I kant think.

	bcgm: Take it up with John Cleese. (Hitler was also born Austrian.)

	@MCORRY - that is some fan-tastic trolling right there.

	And Archimedes--Eureka! he has an idea, passes to socrates back over to Heraclitus to--oh, and there he is, Socrates with the diving header and the greeks are going mad!

	some wise phrase from germany: "Wenn man keine Ahnung, einfach mal Fresse halten." which means as much as: If dont have a clue, shut the **** up

	this quiz would be so much better if I could spell Nietzsche...

	Socrates was the Greek Captain, not Heraklitus

	The officials and Luther should be regular answers!

	TEAM FRANCE: Camus - Sartre, Diderot, Montesquieu, Voltaire - Rousseau, Comte, de Saussure, Malebranche - Descartes, Abelard.

	Rousseau was Swiss. La Mettrie would be a good substitute.

	Socrates himself is particularly missed. A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed.
