Susie McCoy was flunking her pre-calculus course. She had one hope left. She had heard rumors that her teacher might be a bit of a letch, so she went to see him in his office and offered him something she didn't think he could refuse. She was right.

In high school, I was a good soccer player, but I felt jealous of the guys on the football team. They got all the attention, playing before hundreds of adoring fans, and I won’t even mention the cheerleaders.

So, when an opportunity arose for me to use my soccer skills to fill a need for a placekicker on the football team, I took a chance on it.
