Coachisms

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have no idea were these came from, but I will start with a few of my favorites. Some of the funniest thing I have ever herd was from the mouth of Coaches.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------- Son get off the ground, before an athlete comes by and trips on you!-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Wheelbarrow------------------------------------------------------------------------------------A man came to town, he was an acrobat, and was advertising an

almost impossible feat of daring and skill. He said he was going

to walk a tightrope across the bottomless canyon out side of

town. The people could not believe their ears, no one could do

that, besides it is too dangerous, but he insisted he could do it.

As the crowd that had gathered around him began to walk away

he said, “not only will I walk the tightrope across the canyon, but

I will do it pushing a wheelbarrow”, well this just astonished the

crowd. They all started buying tickets from the man, more to see

him fall then to see him succeed. The man said that he would

accomplish this great feat in two weeks at 9:00 am, and went

over to the canyon to practice. He rented a field from an old

farmer and set up a tightrope across the field that would be the

same distance as the canyon and began to practice. The old

farmer came every day to watch the man practice; he was not

very impressed at first as the man fell over and over again. But

the man began to go farther and farther everyday, and soon he

could walk the whole distance. The farmer was impressed and

began to tell the people of the town that he thought the man

could do it. And as the day came closer the farmer was sure that

the man could do it, he was so sure that he started to sell tickets

for the man. When the big day came a huge crowd came out to

see this feat of great skill and daring. The man stood up on the

bed of a truck to address the crowd and to ask them if they

believed he could do this. The winds were high and it had rained

that morning, and when he asked the question if they believed

no one raised their hand, but the farmer. He sat there with his

had up proudly, and he said I believe in you, and I think you can

do it. The man looked at the farmer and smiled, and then

asked “him; “do you believe”, and the farmer said yes, the man

yelled out “do you really believe”, and the farmer said yes I do, I

really do. So then the man looked the farmer in the eye and said,

then get in the wheelbarrow.
