Coach Obvious takes a back seat to Angry Mom

“Boy! I don’t cur that you scored two touchdowns. That don’t matter if you cain’t tackle! You gots ta tackle. If you ain’t gonna play I’ll pull yo ass out right now. I sit ya on the damn bench my own self. Now whatch you gonna do? You gonna play? You betta, if you know whats good for you. You need to knock them out, you need to start hittin!" -- Angry Mom, yelling at her son after he ran 50+ yards for a touchdown.

“Hey! Ya’ll get over here! Listen to her!” -- Coach Obvious, after realizing that this angry large black woman could motivate (with fear) the team better than he could. At the time the other team’s running back had just completed an 80 yard run for his 5th touchdown of the day, which tied up the game in the fourth quarter.

“You know what ya’lls problem is? You lazy! Every last one of yous. Lazy and don’t what to hit nobody, and don’t want to tackle. Ya’ll need to get out there and hit they asses. Number 2 ain’t no good, but ya’ll letting him run all over you! Why be letting him score all the time? Cause you afraid! ‘Fraid of getting hurt! Na. You gots ta quit being lazy. Say, I’ll tell you what. I got five dollas here for anyone who can knock number 2 out. Five dollas if you knock number 2 out. PUT HIM ON HIS BACK! Don’t let him get up. YOU KNOCK HIM OUT, AND IF HE GETS UP YOU KNOCK HIM OUT AGAIN!!! I got five dollas.” -- Angry Mom (yelled the entire thing, but she really screamed the last part). And surprisingly, this worked, number 2 wasn’t knocked out, but they did keep him from scoring again, and they ended up winning.
