GUESTBREAKER: Your Letterman Jacket
I know, being the star quarterback of your varsity football team was a big deal. And yeah, I HAVE heard the story of that pass you threw to win the championship game…about 30 times. I’m really glad that your high school accomplishments make you feel validated as a person but can I be honest with you for a second? The graduation year on that letter jacket is ‘06. It’s 2010 now. You’re graduating from college this year. Let’s get real, clearly you weren’t as stellar of a player as you thought you were because you didn’t play college ball. You didn’t even get an offer to play college ball. And this is a D2 school. And our football team sucks. I think they let anyone play here, to be really honest. But you still talk about a pass you made when you were SEVENTEEN YEARS OLD. If all you have to be proud of in life is throwing a ball pretty well over four years ago, I think it’s time to hang up that letter jacket and live a little. Join the Peace Corps, go to grad school, travel. Please do something, if only so I have new stories to listen to. Oh, and stop highlighting your hair. Frosted tips are so ‘99.
