To wolf or not to wolf, that is the question.
For Scott Howard, in Teen Wolf, played by Michael J. Fox, the decision was to leave the wolf inside despite an up hill battle against the rival Dragons. Beaver nation cried and pleaded for the wolf, but it did not come.
And it showed. The Beavers were getting destroyed 32-10 in the third quarter. Then, like a sign from GOD, Mark Safan's "Win in the End" comes on and the rest is history.
Cue montage:
What a comeback huh? I mean to be down by 22 in the third quarter and storm back like that is just amazing. What's even more amazing is they did it without the services of a wolf boy with superhuman basketball skills. Maybe Lebron James is part wolf. Test him now.
The real star of this game was number 45. I mean did you see how many defensive stops that man made. I mean Howard was great, but this nameless man was a beast. Not a wolf, but like a cougar or bobcat or something of that nature. Who knows, maybe he turns into one of these animals.
The refs must have been blind, because there is no way that Mick McAllister should have remained in the game after all of those hard fouls on Howard and the rest of the Beavers. I think he was just pissed that a wolf banged his girlfriend earlier in the movie. And nice name, Mick McAllister, just sounds like the name of a complete asshole.
Pretty sloppy defense on the part of the Dragons don't you think? I mean Howard telegraphs two behind the back passes and the defender just stands there with a thumb up his ass. I hope his coach pulled the thumb out and ripped him a new one after that effort.
So what's the lesson here folks? That no matter what size deficit, no matter how far down you are, a montage can scrape a team off the floor and bring them back to life.
Spoiler alert: Howard nails two free throws and wins the game, without every showing off the wolf. Got to love the 80s. Layman out.
