Get the It’s just wings mug.during the inaugural year of hanover high, coach just was an inspirtational and influentual person to many of us. since then he has truly become the anally retentive person we knew he always was and refuses to carry on a conversation with any of his former oceanography students past "DAVIS" or "SULLIVAN." team just was created last may during a friendly church youth group game of laser qWest. by the way we weren't playing at the one on 19th street in the heart of the ghetto of the hood of richmond. there were no black people. it sucked. anyways, during this church scrimmage, myself, mills, pinson, hausenfluck, and chad aka cashmuny decided to form an alliance much like that naked guy richard and rudy did in the first Survivor. our alliance could not be stopped for one reason. we would yell out battle cries after every kill. that battle cry was "TEAM JUST!11!1"
to commemorate (spelling) this momentous occasion i purchased a $5 dogtag in chicago which reads "c-dav hanover high team just." i wear it around my neck to remind myself of the struggle my fellow white brethren faced as we conquered impossible odds of overthrowing the Carmen/Nick Wisner alliance that was steadily becoming the worst duo ever to be created.
