When I was in college I volunteer coached a flag football team for young adults with Down Syndrome and other challenges. It was awesome.
The college football team was the bad news bears. They were almost as bad as the Chiefs. One night at a party, some football players were being assholes, spraying beer around, trying to be the Animal House guys or something. An argument ensued. At some point, I find myself encircled by half a dozen college football players with zero or 1 win on their record for the season, apparently wanting to beat me until the candy came out.
At that point, I chose to say the following:
"You guys are acting like dickheads. I coach a flag football team of people with Down Syndrome who could play the same schedule you have this year, and win just as many games..........and you want to act like big shit here?"
That same flag football team could play the Chiefs schedule and be within 1 win of the same record.
These colors don't run.....much better that my old flag football team. At least my guys would have given full effort and done something we could cheer as fans.
