Bobby Petrino's Pants


If you have a motorcycle accident while your girlfriend is riding behind you on the motorcycle, and you happen to be the coach of a major football program who also happens to be the married father of four, don’t try to pretend she wasn’t there.  How many times do we have to be taught this lesson for it to sink in with someone?  If you are a celebrity, and major college football coaches qualify, you won’t be able to successfully lie about your indiscretions.  Personally, the lesson for me would be to not sleep with the twenty five year old.  However, if you really want to break the promises you have made to your wife and run the risk of destroying your family, you need to be really careful.  You also have to realize that no matter how careful you are you might crash your motorcycle when she is on it, and if that happens you won’t be able to cover it up and should just be honest as soon as you possibly can.  By the way, this lesson is also relevant should if you are a major star in professional basketball and you want to have your coach fired without anybody really catching on that you want your coach fired.  Listen, it’s really pretty simple.  You’re too popular for someone not to discover your lies.  America loves an honest sinner and will forgive you in half a second.  Combine those two, and you have the lesson here.  If someone catches you with your pants down, whether literally and figuratively, don’t try to convince them that you’re really wearing shorts.
