Rowing Secrets

This is from The Big Book of Jewish Humor


Yeshiva University decides to put together a rowing team to compete in the Head of the Charles Regatta in Cambridge. Year after year they finish dead last.

Finally , the chairman of the board, exasperated by the team's perennial poor showing, says to the coach, "Enough is enough. I want you to send your captain up to Harvard to spend a few days watching from the bushes to see how they do it."

A few days later, the captain returns from Cambridge and goes straight to see his coach, who says, "Nu? What did you learn?"

"Coach, you won't believe this. At Harvard they have eight guys rowing and one guy yelling!"
