Derek Dooley as Bluto Blutarsky

University of Tennessee football coach, Derek Dooley, attempted to compare his inexperienced team to German forces in World War II (source).
Right now we're like the Germans in World War II. Here comes the boats, they're coming. You have the binoculars, and it's like, 'Oh, my God, the invasion is coming. ~ University of Tennessee football Coach Derek Dooley
Unfortunately, this is how he sounded:
Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!... And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...[thinks hard] the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!  ~ John 'Bluto' Blutarsky, Animal House
I bristle over the light comparisons of team sports and war; however, this was too funny as Coach Dooley himself sounded very young and inexperienced.
