ATHLETES BRAIN TYPES
I mentioned previously how I was so interested in how brain types affect a person and their athletic ability that I bought a book written by athlete brain type guru Jon Niednagel. In last Friday's Daily News sports section, an article about his theories was presented, as it related to Cincinnati Bengal quarterback and former USC (boo!!!) star Carson Palmer.
In it, he says Palmer's ISFJ brain type is so rare, he has never seen it in an NFL quarterback. Plus, he ranked ISFJs among the bottom half of brain types for quarterbacks.
Guess what MY brain type is? Yup, ISFJ. Guess I'll never make it as a professional athlete, let along a quarterback of an NFL team.
By the way, Palmer, who started his first NFL game this past Sunday, threw for 248 yards with two touchdowns and one inteception in his team's 31-24 loss to the Jets.
