Dramatic Effect
Football Pads vs. Vehicle
Embedded from YouTube: Jamming cyclist with car; like jamming a wide receiver coming off the line. Instead of pads on a body, you get a right foot and a car. Hit and runs are more fun to watch than football.

Mountain biker get hammered by antelope.
People getting horribly injured is fascinating.
Violent scene outside person’s family and friend circle: interesting, not tragic. Aldous Huxley’s imagination landscape is without tragedy and emotion.

If you were a Pro Player, Who would you want your Coach to be?
If I was good enough to play professional football, being on the excitable Harbaugh’s team would be inspiring. And it would be fun to be rich in San Francisco. Harbaugh likes to honk his vehicle’s horn at post-game at the opposing teams bus. Mr. Good-Looks Chris Culliver sheepishly walks into Coaches’ office. The man will explode.
Weaponizing for the Hit and Run
Chris likes brass knuckles.
One time in Sapporo Japan, hot dogging angrily through the dense city buildings and offices during prime time. Out comes a nice sedan out of a slim alley. Visibility zero for both parties. I knew I was racing too fast. Angry and sad in a strange land. Hit by car from 12 foot brick-walled on two sides alley-way in the city streets off the main offices road. Threw bike onto windshield. Realized the crime. Shrugged, guilt, fear and gone was the man and the bike. Ryan Kelley.
I threw my bike like this crazy fool. In the anonymousness of Japan, I figured that I could get away with it and I did. In today’s culture of close proximity and the internet, the trend says that fewer crimes are unsolved. Fear of getting caught is enough to make a man confess. Often social pressure and guilt causes a man to remain at the scene or a belief in a higher power that is judging. Why do we do we stop for hit and runs?
Ryan’s Second Confession of Hit and Run Incident: Car on Car, Los Angeles, Summer of 2000
Cruising through the streets of Los Angeles post sorority volleyball tournament: driver, navigator, eight dudes, keg-of-beer-in- the-shower-rent-a-camper-bounce-slammed-into-nice-car-on-a-tight-right-turn. Winces and a nod. Going. Blue sedan knocked blocks away from raging college beach party.
Third Hit and Run Confession:
What: Dad’s Toyota Camry and Fence
Who: Five Seventeen Year Old Golfers including Ryan, the driver
When: Spring Break 1995
Where: Wet and Rainy at Trabuco Hills High School Athletic Fields
Idea: Tour around deserted wet athletic field in Dad’s car stocked with highschool dudes.
Heart Beating Fast: Desire to impress friends. Bored of spring break.
Event: Gassed Camry’s right pedal on the way up grassy ramp to fields.
Went up hill. Caught speed. Too much: swung around softball field upon landing at top of hill.
Damage: Rubbed car with fence for 20 feet.
We never did doughnuts on the fields.
Spoiled kid wrecked dad’s car.
Lied: We went bowling. Found it like that in the parking lot, said Ryan to his dad.
