Has nothing to do with being offended.Sure it didn't really happen. But its a story thats always been used in sports.Midas whale follow up with a Thomas the Train story.
Someone on the team is depressed? Reference Eeyore.
Drawing inspiration for real life struggles should not be left to make believe stories. "Yeah, but coach that actually didn't happen. Got any inspirational stories of real Davids and Goliaths, to give us hope that our task doesn't just exist in Neverland?"
You say you can go with the little engine that could but that also didn't happen.
Sometimes people use common examples that didn't happen to describe an event. It happens. Don't get offended fambz.
I'll start saiyan "This is a low level saiyan warrior beating the prince of all saiyans type competition!" if you want though.
Criticism =/= being offended

And staying away from using The Little Engine That Could is exactly my point. I would never use that.
I understand these stories have always been used, but people are collectively starting to wise up. Babies used to eat mashed up food, but when they grow up, solids are the right choice. In the same way, using real examples is more motivational than fiction.
