Wherein entitled jocks came up with all sorts of 'reasons' why they should be able to rape or did rape, and how everyone in such small towns backed the jocks rather than the victims. Of course, the twist at the end, with the supposed anti-rape coach 'pumping up' the team with a very rapey sounding 'pep talk' suggests another reason why such a culture exists.
