Genius Idiot

James Naismith:  For those who don't know who James Naismith is, he was the Canadian genius who had the vision and foresight to think up, and create, a game where individuals would shoot a round, spherical object into a hole 10 feet above the ground in order to earn points for their team.  We know this game today as Basketball.  However, this fuckin' idiot wasn't smart enough to think that it would be efficient to CUT OFF THE BOTTOM PORTION OF THE PEACH BASKET so the ball would drop to the floor after a made shot.  Instead, if you made a shot during the 1st trimester of basketball, you would have to: (1) call a time-out, (2) go to the sidelines, (3) get a ladder, (4) open and properly position and navigate the ladder next to the basket making sure not to scuff the hardwood floors, and so it was also sturdy, (5) climb up the ladder, (6) remove the ball from the basket, (7) look down from the ladder to get your bearings and to determine where you wanted to throw the ball back down on the court, (8) throw the ball back down into the court of play, (9) climb down the ladder, (10) fold up the ladder, (11) remove the ladder from the court, and (12) give the order to resume play again.  James Naismith, a true "GENIUS IDIOT".
