Anyone else have the urge to go watch The Transporter?

When I was in music in junior high, we basically just rehearsed classical pieces. While there was some learning involved, it wasn't until years later on my own that I started learning about music theory and really understanding the things I had been briefly shown when I was younger.

Do you have any thoughts on why music programs rarely teach about musical theory in a practical way? Why do they mostly ignore the music people actually listen to? Had I learned about basic chords and progressions in the music I listened to all the time, I probably would have understood the more complex stuff we played in band class a lot more.
