Refused? You sure wouldn’t have played football in Texas back in the day... the coach was close to the Captain of a ship.

I find it hard to understand why people act like lemmings and are so compliant with unreasonable demands. Maybe its the independent/conservative streak in me that questions things that don’t make sense. I also have a strong aversion to any kind of abuse. Standing up to it is a real display of character IMO.

I played high school football and did my share of exercises and drills. But they were always for strength and conditioning, not punishment. The coach had rational ways to deal with player issues and was highly respected.
