Apologies in advance for going a bit off topic.
The discussion of greatest alltime Coaches and thinking of Lombardi got me to thinking how his famous quote might go over for different groups.
Lombardi: Gentlemen, this is a Football!
USC: Hang on Coach, you're going to fast
Stanford Philosophy club: In a metaphysical sense, is the football aware of its existence?
OJ: I didn't do it
Bill Clinton: It depends on what your definition of "is" is
Tom Brady: It looks a little overinflated to me, let me fix that..
Australian Football club: You call that wimpy thing a football?
Macbeth: Football is a tale, told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing
