We are most shaped by the things that we are ashamed of. Ronald
"Butcher" Blake is The Man when it comes to high school football in
1988. With the other heroes of the undefeated Mims High School
Mustangs he is one of the elite. The untouchable. That is until he
takes it upon himself, while showing off for his teammates, to
assault and frighten a mentally disabled boy in the hallway at
school. Letting the punishment fit the crime, the principal and his
coach devise an ingenious way of teaching Butcher a lesson. He
won't be suspended from school or kicked off the team, provided he
agrees to one stipulation. Butcher Blake will be the new bodyguard
for the boy, Ethan Miles. The rest of the Mustangs, however, don't
like losing their partner in crime to "some retard" and they do all
they can to make life even harder on Butcher and his new charge.
Led by Derek Skyler and his personal Goon Squad, the remaining
members of the team, and even Butcher's girlfriend, launch an
effort to wreck the new arrangement. No longer elite and no longer
untouchable, Butcher begins to see that there is more to life than
just football. A realization that he fights every step of the way.
Picking On Retards is a novel about the hardest lessons we learn.
The ones about ourselves.
