Worst Person for the Job
In a week where it emerges that the new Health Secretary is a fan of the hocus-pocus that is homeopathy, tell us about people who are spectacularly out of their depth in a job. Have you ever found yourself wallowing in your own incompetence? Tell us. (Note: "Name of football manager/politician - nuff said" does not constitute an answer)

You're assuming
(a) that the school had cheerleaders, (b) that they were underage, and (c) that the coach was actually thinking of the real cheerleaders.

I believe that the age of consent is 18 in the US (21 in some parts?) - so high school girls are underage.
Also, many schools do have male cheerleaders too. George W Bush was one - probably his most impressive achievement, in fact.
