<p>The football team at our school has a few big doosch bags on the team, and the soccer team wanted to make fun of them. These football guys always wear their jerseys on friday with the sleeves rolled up high and carry around gallon jugs with water in them. The soccer team enlisted the help of the tennis and cross country guys to wear our shirts with sleeves way rolled up and bring water jugs. It was extremely funny, as all the seniors fromt he teams participated. A few years ago, football players had "hydrate passes" that said "its fourth quarter somewhere" so that was our slogan for the day. We wrote that on our jugs, along with other stuff, like "HEart, soul, bicep," and other stuff that got under their skin. Also, we wore a bunch of underarmour stuff to mock the guys, and wrote "click-clack" on our jugs. Some of the football linemen had a picture of a hammer, and it said "be the hammer" so we got this picture and it said "I am the hammer, what tool are you?"</p>
<p>Anyway, the football guys couldn't take being made fun of, told their coach, and the coach went around and talked to all the other coaches about this. The tennis and soccer coach were very pround of us and thought it was hilarious. The football coach also fed us some b.s. about how he wishes more people came to tennis matches blah blah whatever.</p>
<p>This is the start of a revolution, taking down the football guys!</p>
<p>Well I’ve been playin tennis for 5 years and runnning XC for 2… I like football but its no where near XC or tennis. Plus I don’t play soccer but I love watching it… It is the most popular sport in the world so it kicks footballs ace</p>
<p>This is the funniest thing i’ve heard. GO TENNIS! I run XC too, so it all pwns football in my mind. “Hydrate passes” lolololol maybe football players (in your school) should just live in an aquarium</p>
<p>@ Yakyu Spirits, I don’t see how you can say that tennis is a “nerd” sport. It certainly is a gentleman’s sport, I suppose. “Soccer is no better?” Soccer isn’t a sport reserved for the nerdy and smart…I know plenty of football players who became soccer players. In my opinion, soccer and tennis both require a ton more skill than football…or at the very least, more physique.</p>
<p>Tennis is HIGHLY underrated. I’m saying this because I both play tennis and I have seen professional tennis in person. Most people don’t realize this, but if you’re any good and you’re not just dicking around at the public tennis courts, you can run anywhere from 2 to 3 miles per set, in bursts of sprinting. If you play a five setter, as male pros do, your matches can last as long as 5 hours. Not only that, but tennis is extremely technical, from the strokes to the footwork. For every shot, you have to react instantly, gauge where the ball will go, and move really fast. Lots of obnoxious football players talk about how easy tennis is. But when was the last time they had to not only hit 130+ mph serves, but direct it into a precise location to make sure the return isn’t crushed? </p>
<p>Lol, I really like tennis, so I get pretty defensive. But yeah, tennis is just as hard as any other sport (maybe not golf. Golf is pretty intense)</p>
<p>football is highly overrated. Players think just because they are making a jersey makes them all buff and popular. It may be true for some, but does not apply to all. I find it pretty funny because I don’t play football or any other sports at school but I’m bigger than half the guys on the football team.haha</p>
<p>I’m in cross country. The majority of the support of my high school’s sports goes to either Football , or maybe basketball. Some of the football coaches are just good 'ol boys, and football players are kind of arogant.</p>
<p>The reason we did it wasn’t just to make fun of the football players or be doosches, it was to get respect/ attention. We certainly did that I can tell you, most of the football players thought it was funny and creative, and even the coach admitted it was before he told us we sucked. Also, when the fball coach talked to us he was like we wish we could support you its ashame you guys don’t get support, etc. But then he talked to his team and was like “they’re just jealous of you guys, you should be proud.” haha good stuff.</p>
<p>The football players were gunna retaliate by putting up a table in the senior hallway with dixie cups and have someone passing them out, like a marathon to make fun of x-country. They would get in trouble if they retaliated though, but I thought that was pretty creative…</p>
