Marsupials

After discussing what qualifies an animal to be a marsupial:

Baseball player: Rach, you're a marsupial. Know why? Because you have a fanny pack. And that's technically a pouch.

Step-Apostle

Question of the day:

Which two of the New Testament Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) do not tell the story of Jesus' birth?

Answer: Mark and John

Baseball player: Ugh. I thought it was Luke. No one ever talks about him. He's like the step-brother in that family.

Rapping

At the national tournament dinner in California:

Soccer girl: Yeah, [coach's name], you should be a rapper. Here, I'll get you going. You need an intro. How about "My name's T.P. I ain't toilet paper but I am the shit!"?

Baseball Diet

Baseball guy: I'm tryin' to make you 6'3", 230 pounds of jacked and you repay me by drinking A-1? Lift up your shirt and show them what one Coke does to a body.

West Texas vs. Social Norms

Background on my university - we are a business school. The only majors offered are in the business world and that's it. With that said, there are a lot of presentations, which means people have to dress up to make these presentations. A baseball guy comes in, visibly upset about how his presentation went. He is in a stiff white shirt, tie, dark wash jeans, and boots (this is necessary info, promise).

Baseball player: Rachel, does it look like I've cleaned up? I mean, I look nice, right? 
Me: Yeah...
Baseball player: Well, I just got done giving a kick-ass presentation, only I got a B because the professor said that I wasn't "dressed professionally". I don't know what she means; I'm from West Texas for crying out loud! This is dressed up. I can say that I spent more time starching my jeans than she did getting ready this morning.

Always Entertaining

Visiting soccer guy (soccer guy #1) comes into the training room before the game to get pre-game treatment. I hook him up to the e-stim machine and a heat pack. His friend (soccer guy #2) is on the next table and finishes his treatment about 30 seconds before soccer guy #1.

Me: (Looking at soccer guy #2) That beep means you're done.
Soccer guy #1 starts peeling the still-active electrodes off and gets them stuck to his fingers.
Me: (Looking at soccer guy #1) Don't touch those. You're not done yet.
Soccer guy #1: What do you mea-AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! What's going on!!?!?! Aaaahhhh!!!!
