that's a teacher of the year play

My teachers always did that to me

Hated those teachers

As an introvert and somehow who has social anxiety, I hated when teachers did that to me.

@@AJ-cq5pw It's good for you though

that had me dying😂😂

+rpandya97 this was the best ep yet... i ate this up cause its what the world really should be like... worshiping our future and its progress instead of the former... like the stats these sports guys know over what finance guys do and dont get cred for is kinda nuts... this was so good

+rpandya97 He was a born Mathlete!

😂😂😂😂 I'm fell out when I heard that.

😂😂😂😂

Nope It just give me people more reason to complain about American culture The barrier to entry to becoming a teacher is unbelievably low, so much so that software can replace it Trying to indict American education policy by complaining about teachers compensation is so pathetic. Teachers are quickly becoming obsolete. Computers and books are all that’s needed. Teachers are just another drain on the system.

​Just because you failed at life...

What job is not under appreciated? I don't know why we act like teachers are unique here. USA is spending more money then nearly everywhere else yet students are failing basic math/reading

I just blame it on the fact that I'm South African with no DSTV.

@@kenzito101 Dude i'm a South african who only uses DSTV for sport. I some times kick myself thinking that we do get the Comedy Central channel and I have no idea what number channel it is.

Because you're fucking stupid

How? I watched them all in 13 hours..

True.

that tagline meet the new teacher's pet thats solid gold marketing right there

It's true though! Pro sport athletes do commercials like this ALL the time! Especially during football season. I wish teachers were given the pay they deserve.

@@Tunercraze Define 'DESERVE' then? Pay teachers more, school fees go up more. Education is essential, football isn't. People pay more to find entertainment, while continuously crying about essentials being too expensive. A paradox that people create themselves. Want to be a teacher that earns the big bucks? Go teach at private schools or teach at the college level. Or get your doctorate. Same for every industry.

Nope

I'm sure it is lol. Who wouldn't want to be a millionaire:)

Yes. We are appreciated!

@NEGUS MBARKA U mad bro?

Hey hey

Teacher of the Year play for sure.

Yeah but the teacher should be helping them come out of that shell instead of letting them sit there quietly

@@gjkvcnjhygfccccccccc to what extent though..being an introvert shouldn't be viewed as something unhealthy,especially if that individual performs adequately

@@anthonyvyfhuis4983 introverts don't interact well with others, especially those they see as inferior. It doesn't matter if you're a genius, if you can't play well with others people won't hire you. Sad as it is, in this world people would rather have someone with a likeable personality rather than someone that is skilled

Good play!

Nope. It never meant to show the importance of education, just a funny sketch. You can't measure "education" with fame and sponsors like popular sport does

You do know that imbibe means to drink, right?

@@indowithbadenglish5677 on the contrary; it was a satirical look at what society values. We'd rather pay sportsmen millions of dollars over the people who lay the foundations of the nation's future in it's children. Comedy was the medium, but that doesn't mean it didn't have an overreaching meaning

@@DrRiq nope. It kinda stupid if we let our teachers become celebrity with bodyguards and gold everywhere. Because to absorb any knowledge, we sometimes must relate to the person/teachers

Kunaal Bakhtiani it was not subtle at all, but yeah, great use of humour here to convey the value of, or rather how education should be valued (not literally, of course).

Well, I mean.. if we're gonna be truthful, this skit is not any conceivable "reality", even in countries that have the best public education. "$80 million for the next 6 years with $40 in incentives based on test scores"? Lol. But it is a nice contrast because if we cared 1/16th of the amount shown in this video, we would be way better off. But the "reality" in the skit is much more than just "leaps and bounds" better.

Are u not entertained!?

Thanks for bringing knowledge to others minds

NO MORE ESSAYS, PLEASE!

@@cashnastyLive_001 just because I want some weed doesn’t mean I can’t and won’t use my essays to get them

lmao

To be honest; I feel that statement should be true. Towards all of the athletic fanboys and fangirls out there, can you honestly say that, after watching ESPN, sports in general, that these people should be paid millions for what they do? Surgeons and Doctors are literally life impacting, and for them to get the knowledge to save these athletes, they need TEACHERS. Hypothetical, insinuating this hypothetical immensely, what if another race of intellectual sentient beings came over and asked us why we pay athletes millions of dollars for them to frolic on a prepared field, compared to giving a minuscule amount to the educators of our nation who practically nourish the minds of the future. Thank you K&P.

+RaitheAirscape your point is moot. Sports generate an insane amount of revenue. Do you suggest we give the millions to the filthy rich team owners who are already billionaires or pay the players who provide the entertainment and have spent 4-10 hours a day since they were small children(many nba players start at the age of 2 or around there). Athletes work extremely hard to get where they are and if you don't think so I would suggest that you pursue a career in athletics since it's so easy and pays so great.

MrElectrifiedGaming You totally missed the point. I think we should be giving Teachers and Schools Billions of dollars for they're what provide the athletes the knowledge of comprehension first. I find it extremely asinine that we allow athletes to get paid millions for physical training. Yes, i don't agree with athletes getting paid highly for something that many people waste their time watching, and expunged their mental ability while effortlessly watching sweaty men/women exercise and play 'moot' recreational activities. If anything, they should be thankful for the people that adheres to their physical well being, (i.e. Doctors, Surgeons, Therapist) and also the technicians and engineers making the strive to advertise them through telecommunications. Seriously, it takes a genius mind to study and know the ins and outs of a human body, an immense amount of time to apply that learning, and also the grit to comprehend complexity. It only takes a few statements and kinetic regimes to tell a person a better way to play sports. Yeah, physical training is in there, but it's not like no one can do it, unless handicapped or disabled. It takes a teacher to teach someone how to play sports. It also took a teacher to teach you how to write and spell for your RU-vid comment to be posted, sir/ma'am, and I'm pretty sure your education is priceless to you like millions of others.

+MrElectrifiedGaming Dude, you sound ignorant, but I'm not going to judge you; do you honestly think that athletes needs to be paid millions of dollars? There is now a government tax through cable called 'sports Programming Surcharge ' and like me, thousands if not millions of other people don't watch sports. However, we're being forcibly subjugated to pay this horrendous 'tax'. Id be happier paying more taxes for military soldiers who should be paid millions for defending our country, and takes care of lame ass athletes who don't even bother to bat an eye lash at the ones allowing them to put on jerseys and sneakers and commit to doing suicides on a court and shooting rubber balls into knitted baskets.

LOL

Your school wants to accumulate cap space for next year when that happens. Hahahaha

Nothing but love however, "As a teacher myself" is redundant. "As a teacher" will suffice.

They're geniuses. No other way to explain this.

Lol I actually wondered how this sketch hasn't been made before. It wrote itself long ago when people first started comparing teacher salaries to pro sports athlete salaries

Um lemme think, because people complain that athletes make millions and teachers make nothing

@Liver Jar lol.. noice

It reveals crass consumer culture.

It's not because of capitalism, only those with income are in schools that value an outlook like this.

Yabuza Gardens high key kinda made me sad as well, like this makes so much sense, more than our reality tbh

Menehune Beachbumboogie it actually isn't, there's no possible way for teachers to be paid that much for teaching high school. It makes sense for pro sports players to make millions, because they rack in the money.

@@mailife2875 lol what? I did not noticed that education would be valued in Venezuela or in former USSR. Actually i am from former Eastern bloc country and trust me that education was valued waaaaaaaaaaay less before we transitioned to capitalism.

Jacob S-H thought it was legit an ad lmao

👍

Dude, this comment is genius!! 😍😂😂

😂

Well, a million dollars is unreasonable for any profession. But I agree with the sentiment.

It's supply in demand..Americans don't give a shit about education rather be entertained to forget...kinda like a drug lol

abraham lincoln True the fact that if America valued teachers as much as sports stars, the relative level of education would be much higher, but conversely, teachers may do it for the money and not actually care to instill knowledge into the students. In any case, it goes to show how Americans would completely commercialize education if they saw people cared about it enough. Perhaps the fact that academia at large is somewhat of a struggle is a good thing, in the sense that it makes sure only those who are truly driven and passionate about what they are studying will succeed at becoming distinguished in their field.

abraham lincoln If America required as much competition out of their teachers as they do out of their sports stars, then this would be a much better country. Seriously though, hiring and then being unable to fire bad teachers is what is killing the education system in this country, not the amount they are being payed. If more teachers in America were as educated or as competitive as teachers elsewhere in the world our education system would be much better.

we still have racism

Dude sameeeeeeee can’t stop lol there’s so many

Archie Goes Mental Agreed, it's such a strange and subtle mood here. Hard not to have pretty serious feelings after the laughs

Chicken Shawarma your own educators clearly failed you (us)

Chicken Shawarma read a book, kid

Chicken Shawarma you do know having a good teacher who cares about their students and knows how to teach is also pretty hard to come by and more valuable than any entertainment person is, right? Though you've obviously never met one, so sad for you :(.

Archie Goes Mental Teachers shouldn't be paid millions

Cause no one wants to watch the 42nd Algebra Bowl ESPN 9.

Vanger48912 LOL

Travis Mohan They do get acknowledged from where I live. Some teachers gain fame by their unique and effective ways of teaching, then students come rushing in for private tutoring sessions. After the teacher had become famous enough. They open their own tutoring center and earn exceptional amount of fortune through tutoring and endorsement for the textbook industries.

It's all about economics and business. NFL for example, the NFL makes over 45 billion dollars. There's 32 teams that's over 1.4 billion each team. The team's have around 40 people on the football team, they have about 30 more in coach staff and front office. There's only about 1300 players under contract, so it's a really limited job. They believe they deserve to make a lot, and the only people stopping them from making too much are the NFL itself that sets a cap max. The teams have enough money to give to the players, and still make enough profit as well, so they aren't really worried about it. Sense the value of the NFL keeps going up, player value goes up.

Travis Mohan because sports is a mega multi-million dollar business with a very small percentage of people actually becoming professional athletes. Simple economics. Teachers on the other hand are plentiful, and theres actually too many of them in most places. It doesnt take much to become a teacher, but it takes everything (including genetics) to become a professional athlete.

Didn't even realize it was part of the sketch lmao....thought it was a youtube ad

Rayray I was about to turn off, then I realized ...

+MrQuickwit09 Let me poke some holes in what you said, if I may. First of all, I live in North Carolina, to give you an idea of what teacher pay is like elsewhere in the country. My mother and my sister are both elementary school teachers, both with a Bachelors and Masters in elementary education. My sister is a national board certified teacher. Between them, that is nearly 15 years of schooling. On average, both of them work between 12 and 16 hours a day. It is extremely foolish to think that a teacher only works while there are students in the classroom. For example, my sister is on maternity leave and still spends, on average, 16-20 hours a week working on lesson plans. And for teachers who actually care about their work, summer break is not a break at all, and no, teachers don't get paid 12 months of the year and only work 10. They get paid for 10 months split up over a year. And what do my sister and mother make? Less than $30k a year. And the cost of living here is either at or above the U.S. national average cost of living of $58k a year. So yes. I would say that teachers - at least here - are less than scraping by. It's much harder and more valuable to teach a person how to be a valuable member of society than it is to run a 4.3 40.

Firstly, regarding "anecdotal evidence," my evidence on teacher qualifications and salaries and the cost of living as it relates to those salaries where I live is far from anecdotal. Those are facts and statistics that the most meager of Google searches can uncover. Secondly, your "50% of America" gets paid far better than most teachers, and with the same qualifications. Lastly, and just to understand your point, athletes well deserve tens of millions of dollars to entertain us by running fast and catching balls? I'm sorry but the ability to jump high and put a ball through a hole does not a societal contributor make. To use the words of second century Roman poet Juvenal, America's public is more concerned with panem et circenses, bread and circuses, than they are with the wider concerns of society, and you are part of the problem.

+MrQuickwit09 There is more to our school system than teachers and their benefits. If you really want to form an opinion on this subject I suggest you look into those other factors so you can see the full picture.

+MrQuickwit09 Until you go through the struggles of becoming a teacher, and working in the system you don't have any room to talk.

+MrQuickwit09 in sorry you obviously know so much about teaching and I had no idea you where an expert, would you like to try to teach all my classes? Let me let you in on something 50% of all teachers drop out after their first year the same rate of army Rangers that dropout during training. These are people who dedicated 5 years of college trying to learn to teach and failed. It's not a cake walk and if anyone wants to tell you otherwise they don't know what they're talking about

God Agreed I had my fair share of shitty teachers telling 10 years old kids they won't be good for anything else than picking up trash. But on the other hand, I had an English teacher, a science teacher and an economics teacher during junior high whom I really looked up to. Then at high school there was this English teacher I was constantly having arguments with until midway through my 2nd second year. By the time I made it to my last year we had mutual respect for each other and he even asked me to start calling him by his name. There was also an economics teacher at high school playing the bossy type but he really cared for all his students and on each final week of school he would cancel the classes and have us meet for lunch and have a chat with us about vacations, hopes and dreams, giving us advice. A really great man.

dasriM civozdeR I know I'm way late on this but I don't think people realize this is a reference to another K/P video.

Not sure about the whole world, but this was partially true at least in ancient India about 5000 years ago. Teachers (called Gurus) weren't GET PAID by the King of the kingdom, instead they had RIGHT TO ASK ANYTHING they want from the King. Gurus were most respectable persons in the society. In fact they would get more respect in the society than the wealthiest business man, the undefeated and most powerful warrior or the King. Because they strongly believed that the future and advancement of the society is heavily depend on the education and training given by the Gurus to their students. The relationship between the teacher the student (Guru and Shishya) were not only util the education period, but for the whole life. Shishya would ask for the guidance, with all respect, to his Guru anytime in the life if he stuck somewhere. That's why, at that time, Grus were not only teachers but also called guide (Marg Darshak) of the society.

If you don't like it get out

Yup, I was about to say, that *was* a BMW ad. And it was a really good one too, wasn't it. They should take it mainstream, though. What do I care about some athlete driving a car? That's not inspirational. Inspirational is a teacher, a doctor, a poet, a civil rights leader, etc.

And I thought it's "he's gay"

They could replace teachers with many things, nurses, etc... the message would be the same... it's a shame society isn't like this... but watching people teach is just not exciting or entertaining

teachers could probably make more if we cut the military budget
