Seriously!

Golf tryouts started yesterday. Due to time we could only score the kids on two holes, but they didn't know this beforehand. The first group I took out was pretty good, then came the second. I noticed that one of the kids in the second group was one of my JV football players.....this kid was known for dumb mistakes.....good kid though. Well, his first tee shot went straight into the pond....he turned around with a blank look on his face...I told him to hit another, no response...Then I said," please tell me you didn't bring just one ball!".....he shook his head yes. So, one of the other kids gave him another ball to use which he proceeded to hit in the water again. I asked the other guys if anyone felt generous. One of the others gave him yet another ball......he hit it about a yard shy of the ladies tees. I said, "looks like you're up again buddy". He lined up, no practice swing, and hit it......in the water! Needless to say he didn't play anymore after that.

Moral of the story: You've got to have BALLS to play golf!!!
