I wonder

How many times have athletes injured themselves on campus doing dumb things that they lie to their coaches about?

What would athletes lie about?  What are some interesting situations they get in?  Well I can't list them all.  Here are some interesting ones.

I hurt my leg by falling last night....
What they might mean is that they were drunk and fell and twisted an ankle or something. 

The cross country runners who sneak cake past coaches at banquets...sit with different teams at banquets to eat dessert

"I take notes, but the teacher collects them at the end of class and we don't get them back." 

"I have to leave class early, I have an interview. "

This isn't lying but...another favorite...Cross Country runners who get spotted by their cross country coach during pre-season eating ice-cream on campus.  Atleast the coach was nice enough to wave.  

"I need new gear. Give me a marker or a pen.  I'll get some marks on it and they will give me new gear."

Having one person go to class and then mass text everyone to show up when they see a class check.  Then all of a sudden you see three athletes running together...late to class.   

There are so many other ones.  I'd love to have some posted by others.  I've been had and lied to.  I know it.
