Alright, alright, let me tell you somethin’ ’bout this football stuff I saw on the TV. It was somethin’ else, I tell ya. They was playin’ this game, runnin’ around like chickens with their heads cut off, and then, bam! This fella, one of them player fellas, he up and kissed the referee! Can you believe that? I sure couldn’t. Kissed him right on the cheek, like he was his own grandma or somethin’.
Now, I ain’t never seen nothin’ like that in all my born days. I seen fellas get mad, yellin’ and screamin’ at the referee, spittin’ even, like that fella in that other game they was showin’. Spit right at him, they said. Can you imagine? Rude as a hog, that’s what he was. But kissin’? That’s a new one.
- First, you got these fellas runnin’ and kickin’.
- Then, they start yellin’ and arguin’.
- And then, outta nowhere, a kiss!
Made me think, you know. These fellas, they get all worked up, sweatin’ and pushin’, and then one of ’em just goes soft. Maybe he was just tryin’ to be nice, you know, butter up the referee so he wouldn’t call no fouls on him. Or maybe he just lost his mind for a minute. Happens to the best of us, I guess, though I ain’t never kissed no referee, that’s for sure.
I heard tell of another referee, different one though, doin’ somethin’ even crazier. Snortin’ some white powder, they said. On video, even. Lord have mercy. What’s the world comin’ to, I ask ya? These young fellas, they just don’t know how to act right. Back in my day, you respected the referee, even if you didn’t like his calls. You might grumble a bit under your breath, but you sure didn’t go around kissin’ ’em or snortin’ nothin’.
Then there was that other time, they showed this young fella, high school kid he was, slammin’ the referee after he got kicked outta the game. Now that’s just plain wrong. You can’t be goin’ around hittin’ people just ’cause you’re mad. That ain’t how you solve nothin’. My pappy always said, “Keep your hands to yourself, son, unless you’re shakin’ hands or huggin’ your mama.” He didn’t say nothin’ about kissin’ referees, though, that’s for sure.
This kissin’ thing though, it got me thinkin’. Maybe they need to change the rules or somethin’. Maybe they should make a rule that says no kissin’ the referee. Or maybe they should just tell these fellas to calm down and act like they got some sense. I don’t know the answer, I just know what I saw. And what I saw was a football player kissin’ a referee. And that, my friends, is just plain strange. Makes you wonder what they’ll do next, those silly fellas.
Football is a rough game, yeah, but it ain’t supposed to be a kissin’ game. You got your rules, you got your plays, and you got your sportsmanship. And then you got kissin’ apparently. I just hope they don’t start makin’ that a regular thing. I ain’t sure my old heart could take it. All that runnin’ and kickin’ and then, smooch! It’s enough to make a body dizzy.
So that’s the story, as best as I can tell it. A football player, a referee, and a kiss. Who woulda thunk it? The world is full of surprises, I guess. And sometimes, them surprises is just plain weird. Just makes you shake your head and wonder what those fellas are gonna do next, you know? Maybe next time they’ll bring the referee some flowers, or bake him a pie. You just never know these days. Makes watching the games a little more interestin’ though, I gotta admit.
I heard tell that lots of folks saw it too, all over the internet they said. Thousands and thousands of folks watchin’ and talkin’ about this kissin’ football player. Well, I guess that’s somethin’ at least. Maybe this fella will get famous, not for his kickin’ but for his kissin’. Now wouldn’t that be a hoot?
