Why Kyle Cumiskey shouldn't teach...

by esylvester6 on Feb 3, 2010 10:56 PM MST

I love Cumiskey, but.... well.... its a good thing he isn't working with kids... This is a bit old, so bear with me if you've seen it, but I just stumbled upon it today and it made me laugh (I'm an education major, and I know there are quite a few people on MHH that teach....) I've never seen somebody look so defeated by third graders before... He just wants to get the HELL out of there. If this hockey thing doesn't pan out, teaching probably isn't plan B for Roadrunner. MEEP MEEP!!!

Ha, I think he would rather fight Chara than go through that again. Uncomfortable isn’t the word.

I teach high school, and I couldn’t handle teaching third graders. My wife on the other hand loves 3rd grade, but never wants to teach 1st grade. Some of it just goes to where your strengths lie.
But Road Runner was definitely a deer in the headlights. Good thing the Coyote was at the fed ex office trying to locate his latest ACME purchase.

I felt bad for him there… I really did. even in the pre-interview he had the look of “are you serious?”.

That was pretty good lol. RR looked like he wanted to kill Kyle Keefe on many instances, I wonder what words he had for Keefe after the segment was done taping lol

not only that, I’m sure that the kids wouldn’t be able to think of any way to make fun of his name, that’s just not what kids do.

LOL. I can just see a little kid asking him, “… is the key to what?”

These segments are hit or miss. I thought the ones with Clark doing the weather and Highlander fighting fires were pretty good, but Cumisky teaching and Andy racing were awkward.

I liked the Highlander one.

I watched that a few days before you posted this and I couldn’t even get through the whole thing I felt RR’s pain so much. He simply looked miserable. Even before he walked in you could tell he was dreading it. I taught third grade and loved it but he would have been much better off at a high school where he could have flirted with all the girls. Well, maybe. They might have freaked him out more. lol.
