Get out, and don't come back until you've redeemed yourselves ...

Our former interpreter used to tell a story about a game involving a Benedictine Catholic college where he T'ed up the priest on the bench. I really didn't believe him until my son went to the same college. Every sports team had a team chaplain, my son ran cross country, and he told me that when he attended other sporting events that the team chaplain would often be most vocal "cheerleader" on the bench, especially in basketball.

In my high school career, I've thought about warning the team chaplain on some of our Catholic high school teams, but they never seemed to cross the line. There was one nun who was quite verbal, but she scared the hell out of me, so I let it go.
