on the right, hating my coach

our team is reuniting tomorrow night to play the current high school team in celebration of our 25th anniversary lol. i won't be there, but it's been alarming to see pix of 42yos you haven't seen since they were 17

who would play your coach in the movie?

I asked the lady if she could give me slit wrists. She paused and said, "You have to promise not to do it. I had a friend who died that way." But she delivered.

lol oh god

xp carl reiner, though i'm not sure he could summon up the appropriate assholeness

the following year, after i graduated, he spared no expense while shitting on his entire team (of high school kids!) in the local paper

also nakh otm

mookieproof, you have deep roots in hoops. sorry you had an asshole hs coach. glad you still enjoy the game.

I just remembered doing a high school play which ended in this long convoluted scene which featured a lot of minor actors who weren't part of the main rehearsals. One of them screws up and says a line that's like 3 pages down in the script, then the other actors follow suit, essentially skipping like five minutes of the play. The problem is my character is supposed to be off stage at this point, I think he winds up getting poisoned or something (this was a black comedy), but I'm just standing there in the center, not knowing what to do. So after a minute there's a pause in the dialogue and I yell out "Aaah! I'm having a heart attack!!", stumble backwards and fall as far back towards the scenery as I can, so I can be out of everyone's way. This of course greatly confuses both the audience and everyone on stage, and as a result they botch the dialogue yet again, and the play sort of abruptly ends a couple minutes later. Man do I wish someone had filmed that. Funny enough everyone "blamed" me (blame in quotes because almost everyone thought it was hilarious) even though it was really some bit actor, not that I wanted to throw him under the bus. Anyway, there's my cool high school story no one asked for.
