yes, a football combine
three months ago, my boss walked into my office, put his hand down on the desk and said, “jamelah, we are going to have a football combine.”
i didn’t know what he was talking about, so naturally, my reply was, “ok.”
now, i don’t know anything about football. and the phrase “football combine” […]
