There's a story  making the rounds about a college  football  coach who,
faced  with the  possibility  that  his star  player  might be  declared
academically  ineligible, pleaded with a math professor not to flunk the
kid.  "Tell  you  what,  coach,"  said the  professor.  "I'll  ask him a
question in your presence.  If he gets it right, I'll pass him."

The athlete was called in, and the prof asked, "What's two and two?"

"Four", replied the player.

Frantically the coach cried, "Give him another chance.  Give him another
chance."
