REPLY I once showed up at a college game expecting to be the BJ in a 7-man crew. Due to an emergency, only six showed up and yours truly was the only one 'experienced' (read 'stupid) enough to volunteer to go into the middle. When I saw the size and speed of those guys, I called my insurance agent to make sure my premiums were paid up.
