"30 Hinge"

In preparation for Clinton in 1998, Justice had us down on the dry erase board in the turf room drawing a new draw play called "30 hinge". I knew the second he told us it was going to BoBo and not Artha we were in for it, because why would a play have 30 in it but go to the tailback? We aren't dealing with two rhodes scholars as our tailbacks, so I knew this would be fun. After drawing the damn play up and explaining it for what seemed like an hour. Justice attempted to write "30 hinge" on the board. He got "h". Then, after erasing both e and i, he goes "well shit, how the hell do you spell hinge?". Afraid to speak up and trying to keep from laughing, I wasn't ABOUT to open my mouth. Justice looked at the other coaches, and they seemed to be the same way. Finally, Justice goes "fuck it, let's just call it the Clinton Special". He has a master's degree, seriously.
