I was a reserve on a really really good high school basketball team. We went 24-1. I never really expected to play much unless we were blowing teams out and quite frankly I was only concerned with scoring points. I was decent at scoring but an awful defender. Typical white guy.
Anyway my coach was kind of a dickhead. He used to call me "Damn it" as a nickname because anytime in practice I was so bad at defense he would have to yell damn it all the time. They started calling me damn it in school. I led the team in scoring in our reserve game and after the game the coach came up to congratulate me but didn't use my name, just the name damn it.
