Maybe the worst metaphor/simile of the year:
This is not only laugh-while-rolling-on-the-floor bad writing, it is also an inapt analogy. A cow in a vegan restaurant should have no fear because there is no danger. Allen Iverson fearlessly attacked the basket even though there was a gauntlet of players 10-15 inches taller and 60-120 pounds heavier ready to not only block his shot, but knock him silly for his temerity of going against the giants. He was as fearless as Chuck Norris taking on a platoon of ninjas, or Obi Wan Kenobi taking on an army of drones.
