Line 18:
Former Lawndale High football star [[Tommy Sherman]], a student who had attended school three years previously, is returning to have a goal post named in his honor. [[Daria Morgendorffer|Daria]] is told of the his athletics exploits, including his tendency to score touchdowns by himself, his habit of crashing into goalposts while waving at the crowd and his induced coma from which he had awaken up to win the state championship years before. This description prompts sarcastic remarks about the student and his expected future life, both to [[Jane Lane|Jane]] and to [[Jodie Landon|Jodie]], the latter of whom is angry she has to write an introductory speech for Sherman.
 
However, Tommy Sherman is shown to be a very unpleasant and rude person, strutting through the school halls,. He bluntly propositioningpropositions [[Brittany Taylor|Brittany]], andleading her to (rightfully) slap Tommy across the face. Tommy also insultinginsults [[Kevin Thompson|Kevin]] and [[Mack Mackenzie|Mack]] shortly after arriving in Lawndale High.
 
Daria, who witnesses this behavior, is fed up andwith verballyhow Tommy is treating her classmates. Later, Daria belittlesasks Tommy to move when thehe begins leaning on her locker. Tommy laterthen makes some nasty remarks to her and Jane, asin which Daria wasresponds justwith askinga himverbal to move (he was leaning on her locker)onslaught. Tommy, however, doesn’t get mad at the verbal barb and makes one of his own, pointing out he's a winner who’s going to be honored, whereas Daria is just a depressed whiner girl, nicknaming her ‘misery chick’. After the exchanged insults, he sets out to the football field for the ceremony. As Daria expresses her disdain about a jerk like him being seen as a hero for the rest of his life, Jane casually remarks that "Maybe he won't live that long". Just after she says that, Tommy is killed when the goalpost falls on him.
