The Kid Doesn’t Have a Leg to Stand On

…so they won’t let him play.

It’s halftime of a game in Dayton on Sept. 16 — Colonel White High against Mount Healthy. After Colonel White leaves the locker room, the refs approach the coaches on the sideline. Crew chief Dennis Daly announces, “Number 99 cannot play in this game anymore. He’s not wearing shoes, knee pads or thigh pads.”
Head coach Earl White just stares at him.
“But he doesn’t have any legs!” White says.

“Sorry,” Daly says. “It’s the rule.”

Not anymore, it’s not.
