Transcript:
Chad, we haven't had a single batter reach base! It's up to you! Take one for the team! What does "take one for the team" mean? It's a euphemism, Chad. What's a euphemism? It's like a gentler way of saying something. A gentler way of saying what? This is like the shooting scene in "Old Yeller."

……so reflects our intrepid hero, who often can’t remember what he (maybe) absorbed in social studies just yesterday, but can recall the “truly important” life truths from a movie made when I was even younger than he is!! That WAS sad………

?? Chester is pitching a perfect game? Then what we need to do is put the jinx on by saying it out loud. Even saying “no-hitter” will do.

Prediction: Chad will hold the bat in self defense and the ball will accidentally hit the bad, causing three errors and a home run, or maybe a triple since this is only Monday.

I think Chad knows exactly what it means, he just wants to make them suffer as much as they want him to suffer. I agree with everyone else, Chad will at least get on base.
Growing up I was not much of an athlete. We were playing Softball in Phys. Ed. My turn at bat. The opposing team all moved to the infield. My teammates coached me on a couple of practice swings. It must have worked, I hit the ball over everyone’s head, stood there in shock for a few seconds, then ran the bases. My first, of many to follow, home run.
Spoiler Alert to Yoda, Old Yeller is a dog. He dies at the end of the movie.

This isn’t the start of a big Chad story. Chad’s part is just today and tomorrow.
