Ok, we'll go with your example. You are the coach, and me, bungee jumper, jzmack, and dave_b are the football players. We'll assume you are trying to coach on on offense.
Heres the real problem: You as the football coach are trying to teach us offense by instructing to run the triangle, pass the ball along the perimeter and take open jump shots. You are making us spend time on practicing free throws. The problem is, WE ARE TALKING ABOUT FOOTBALL, AND YOU ARE TRYING TO TEACH BASKETBALL. To top it off, you have the coaching skills and prowess of rick venturi (a career 2-17 NFL record), rich kotite, or hank bullough.
You dont understand what you are trying to teach, or where the hell you are, and you are so off base, you are in the completely wrong subject.
