Zonker: Great to be back home... wonder how the team made out. So did you have a good season this year, coach? B.D.: Overall, yeah. But it was pretty touch-and-go there for a while. It seemed like half the team was in trouble with the criminal justice system. I spent more time in court than on the field. Even my star quarterback had to wear an ankle bracelet. If it hadn't been for election day, I probably would have quit. Zonker: What happened on election day? B.D.: Well, I was standing in the voting booth when it suddenly hit me - the republican nominee and his running mate had five arrests between them! Zonker: Whoa! B.D.: Big-time whoa. So that made me feel a lot better about the team! Zonker: Sounds like a valuable lesson learned! B.D.: Right - when stakes are high, you can't sweat the rap sheets!
