Chris Kahler mechanical engineering senior

'El Cicl—n' plays soccer often, spins around a lot, can't kick a ball into a hoop just 10 feet away

Wildcat: My name's Nathan and you're On the Spot.

Kahler: Chris.

Wildcat: So you've never heard of On the Spot before?

Kahler: I've heard of it before. Yeah.

Wildcat: But you don't read the paper?

Kahler: I try not to. No.

Wildcat: Oh, what's this world coming to?

Kahler: I don't know. I'm not too big on the Wildcat.

Wildcat: So you're playing soccer in the courtyard.

Kahler: Yeah. I know you're not supposed to, but we just came back from practice.

Wildcat: So what do you call yourself? Do you have a soccer name?

Kahler: No. Just Chris. My friends sometimes call me El Cicl—n.

Wildcat: El See-what?

Kahler: El Cicl—n.

Wildcat: What's that about?

Kahler: I spin around a lot.

Wildcat: Okay.

Kahler: Yeah.

Wildcat: So if I were to hold my arms out in from of me, like a basketball hoop÷

Kahler: Yeah?

Wildcat: Do you think you could kick the ball into the hoop from 10 feet way?

Kahler: I'd probably injure you in some heinous way, but ·

Wildcat: Do you want to try?

Kahler: Uh, sure. Do I have to sign a disclaimer somewhere?

Wildcat: Naw.

Kahler: Okay.

Wildcat: Here we go. Just don't bust me in the grill, man.

Kahler: [approximately 10 feet away] Here?

Wildcat: Yeah.

[El Cicl—n gets his foot under the ball, balances, then kicks out. The ball goes nowhere near Wildcat.]

Wildcat: So, that was a nice try.

Kahler: All right.

Wildcat: A good four feet over my head ·

Kahler: Sorry about that.

Wildcat: Keep practicing. Practice makes perfect. Maybe one day we'll see you out there with PelŽ or something.

Kahler: Yeah.
