You could also run the words together in different ways:<br /><br />"Yagada wann it."<br /><br />"You gotta waannit."<br /><br />Or just making it one word:<br /><br />"Yagadawaaanit."<br /><br />I have officially thought about this for too long.Reluctant Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262229217073508295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26945556.post-57521967743657601702011-03-27T14:23:18.858-04:002011-03-27T14:23:18.858-04:00That fandad is my favorite.

And it is this experience that allows him to yig-wee with impunity.

Start line: I gotta WANT it. YEAH! I WANT it!! Half-way: I GOTTA want it. Right? I GOTTA! Mile 22: I gotta want IT. OMG I want IT.

Before one of the parents of a boy on my son's basketball team got kicked out for his "helpful encouragement" to both the coach and the players I was treated to a number of gems. My favorite? "That's kindergarden stuff!" He would yell this to his son whenever the coach would require the team to do drills that were deemed too rudimentary for his liking. <br /><br />Dribble with you left hand? "That's kindergarden stuff! Through the legs! Through the legs!!!"<br /><br />Layups? "That's kindergarden stuff! Around the back! Around the back!!!"<br /><br />Suicide drills? "That's kindergarden stuff!" He had no alternative for his son that was more difficult...<br /><br />Anyway, good times. Too bad it was cut short at our first tournament when he was politely asked by the coach to leave. And so I was deprived of more mantra material.Vavahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06695435090921005081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26945556.post-2874988137307646122011-03-23T14:08:27.328-04:002011-03-23T14:08:27.328-04:00That is hysterical--the annoying soccer parent bec...That is hysterical--the annoying soccer parent became your interval running mantra.Jesshttp://www.seejessrun.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26945556.post-27118278841857844422011-03-23T13:27:55.595-04:002011-03-23T13:27:55.595-04:00Clearly, one has flown over the cuckoo's nest ...Clearly, one has flown over the cuckoo's nest in the Nitmos household.Sun Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14971351872301112088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26945556.post-18444305279770152702011-03-23T11:05:50.694-04:002011-03-23T11:05:50.694-04:00"Yig-we" will become more popular than W..."Yig-we" will become more popular than W.W.C.S.D.?
