Touchdown ............... Mutual orgasm, 6 points.
Extra Point ............. The smoke afterwards.
Two Point Conversion .... Smoke and a phone number.
High Scoring Game ....... Multiple Orgasms.
Rain Delay .............. Parents/Roommate comes home.
Pile Up ................. ORGY.
Missed Field Goal ....... Wide right, wide left, or even
worse... to short!
3RD Down and Inches ..... Call for a measurement (move

THE OFFENSE
Quarterback ............. Most important position, the
missionary.

THE BOWLS
Rose Bowl.................Romantic sex (MAKING LOVE)
Citrus Bowl...............Healthy or Safe Sex
Peach Bowl................Juicy/Wet Sex
Fiesta Bowl...............Sex in South America
Superbowl.................Marriage (The Big Dance)
SO NOW THAT YOU KNOW THE FIELD AND ALL THE DEFINITIONS YOU
CAN SEE HOW TO USE THEM, HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF HOW USE-
FUL THE ORIGINAL HANDBOOK OF FOOTBALL REALLY IS.
1. There was an on-side kick to what I thought was a wide
receiver, but it turned out to be a tight end so there
was a punt.
2. There was a deep kickoff with no return. I ran the ball
to midfield but then decided to go to the passing game.
The passing play didn't work because of a fumble. On the
next down a running back took it to their 10 yard line.
With 1st and goal, the action moved from the Center to
the Quarterback who did a Quarterback Sneak. The game
turned out to be the highest scoring Peach Bowl ever!!!
3. I was Roughed in the massive Pileup.
4. It was third down and inches on the 20 Yard line but on
the field goal attempt I was short.
I HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED OUR JOURNEY THROUGH THE ORIGINAL
HANDBOOK OF FOOTBALL AND YOU HAVE NOT ONLY HAD A CHUCKLE
BUT WILL PASS IT ON TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS YOU KNOW SO THAT
ONE DAY THE ORIGINAL HANDBOOK OF FOOTBALL WILL REPLACE THE
OLD, OUTDATED, INEFFICIENT, NO LONGER FUNNY STANDARDIZED
GUIDE TO THE BASES.

Subject: And we have a winner!
One Saturday night Paul and Ben were living it up in the Commons, a
local tavern, when Big Bertha came in. At five-feet-four and two hundred
seven pounds, she was dressed in her finest tank top and had on her new
flip-flops. The Daisy Duke shorts she shouldn't have been wearing still
had the stains of her afternoon work cleaning catfish over at the trailer
park. Her hair hadn't been washed in a week or combed in three days. She
chugged one pitcher of beer and then another, trying to get one of the
boys to dance with her.
After her third pitcher, she shouted to the house: "I'll go to bed
with any man who can guess my weight."
Smarty Paul called out, "Darlin', I'd say you weigh one hundred
twelve pounds." "Close enough!" she said, "Let's go!"

Subject: In A Pickle < adult theme >
Bill worked in a pickle factory. He had been employed there for a
number of years when he came home one day to confess to his wife that
he had a terrible compulsion. He had an urge to stick his penis into
the pickle slicer. His wife suggested that he should see a sex
therapist to talk about it, but Bill indicated that he would be too
embarrassed. He vowed to overcome the compulsion on his own. One day
a few weeks later, Bill came home ashen. His wife could see at once
that something was seriously wrong.
"What's wrong, Bill?" she asked. "Do you remember that I told you how
I had this tremendous urge to put my penis into the pickle slicer?"
"Oh, Bill, you didn't."
"Yes, I did."
"My God, Bill, what happened?" "I got fired."
"No, Bill. I mean, what happened with the pickle slicer?"
"Oh... She got fired too."

Subject: SLITS SLATS (pUn)
John and Mary were walking along the shore one Sunday
afternoon when
they spotted a dock projecting into the harbor. They
decided to walk
to the end of the dock and sit down to rest .
Mary, in her infinite boredom, suggested to John, "While
we walk to
the end of the dock, why don't you count the number of
slats used to
build it, and I'll count the number of slits between the
slats?''
John replied, "O.K., I will count the slats, and you will
count the slits.''
So the couple merrily trooped down the dock. John
counted, "One slat!''
Mary counted, "One slit!''
"Two slats!''
"Two slits!''
And, well, you know how the natural numbers work.
Eventually John and
Mary approached the end of the dock.
"327 slats!''
"327 slits!''
"328 slats!''
They had reached the end of the dock. Mary was puzzled.
"John, there are no more slits. What does it mean?''
John turned to Mary and said, . . . "When you're out of slits,
you're
out of pier."
