bodriversblog: I’ll never forget the day I met Coach. There was a pep rally going on because men’s baseball had made the playoffs. Matt, Frank, and I were ditching it, of course. We didn’t give a shit about sports and school spirit like all the conformists. So we were smoking in the parking lot when the head football coach found us. He took us to his office, promising to educate us about respecting authority, teamwork, and what it means to be a man. We couldn’t help but laugh.I can’t tell you exactly what he said (it’s all a big blur in my head for some reason), but we decided to submit to his authority and give our entire selves over to him. We spent the summer in football tryouts and practices instead of wasting it at the skate park. And in the gym, we grew our bodies with iron and sweat, instead of trashing them with booze and weed. As teammates, we’re part of something bigger than us now, and we owe it all to Coach. -- source link
