The sun was in his eyes! The refs were against him! His knee hurt! The moderator missed his blocking assignment!
They weren’t using a regulation ball!
There was a ball wasn’t there?
There wasn’t!
Well there’s the problem who can debate properly without a regulation ball!
The GOP cheated !
“No I didn’t. Honest... I ran out of gas! I—I had a flat tire! I didn’t have enough money for cab fare! My tux didn’t come back from the cleaners! An old friend came in from out of town! Someone stole my car! There was an earthquake! A terrible flood! Locusts! IT WASN’T MY FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!!!”
THERE WAS LOCUST!!!!!
