Chapter 18 Shopping is the happiest

During the half-time summary of the training, Coach Murphy announced his thoughts to all the players.

"In sports competition, only capable people will get the opportunity to play. Our new player, Bill Ferrari, is a capable person. His physique and thrust can rank among the top ten in the team, no, he can definitely be among the top five.

.Not allowing people like this to play is a dark moment for the Fort Hamilton High School team."

After saying a lot of foreshadowing, Coach Murphy finally laid out his map of Yan Kingdom, exposing the dagger to everyone's eyes.

"So, I want Bill to officially play in next Friday's game to demonstrate our pursuit of fairness and justice. But for the sake of fairness to others, I decided to let Bill play with the tight ends and defensive tackles this weekend.

In a contest, the winner goes on the field and the loser sits on the bench.”

After saying this, Hayes and other bench players, who had just trained with Bill, applauded vigorously. They couldn't be in the starting lineup anyway. Some people may really want Bill to play, but most people still saw the mentality of not being too big.

The starting players did not express their position. The coach could decide whether they would sit on the bench. Therefore, the starting players did not dare to object openly and could only use silence to express their unsupportive attitude.

As for the four players who were called, the reaction was much more intense. They stood up from the lawn on the spot and loudly questioned whether a person who had just joined the team could handle thousands of tactical changes and whether he could cooperate well with his teammates.

After all, the starting players have practiced together for several seasons and two or three spring trainings.

But no one questioned Bill's strength and weight. From visual inspection, there were only four or five people stronger than him.

The strongest defensive point and offensive left tackle were not called upon.

"Well, well." Coach Murphy walked to the four people and tried to keep them from complaining. "This is exactly what I want to solve. Bill's physical advantage can make our defensive line stronger. You also know that in football games,

In fact, it is a battle, and players are warriors. The stronger the warrior, the more stable our battle line will be and the better our results will be. The weekend competition only determines whether Bill has a chance to play. I will decide based on which team I will compete with and the opponent.

The size of the players, tactics and other circumstances will determine who will play."

Murphy talked hard and finally got these guys to agree to compete separately on Saturday.

"I will let you know what strength is." A dark-skinned end man said harshly.

Another one also bared his teeth at Bill: "Children, please don't cry when you are knocked down by me."

Naturally, Bill would not respond to such a boring provocation, because it was too childish.

Some of them will cry when waiting for Saturday.

After that, there is normal physical fitness and reaction training. After the cultural class at three o'clock in the afternoon, the school team usually conducts three to four hours of daily training. Today, in preparation for Friday's game, an offensive and defensive drill was conducted, so the training time was reduced to

Three hours.

In the second half, everyone practiced together, with Murphy and Robert focusing on the quarterback and three running backs, and James took care of the rest.

During this process, the four challenged players always tried their best to stumble Bill, such as punching Bill when James wasn't paying attention, spitting on Bill's shoes, and taunting Bill when passing by.

Wear everyday polo shirts and sweatpants instead of serious rugby uniforms.

Bill endured all these points until the second mouthful of phlegm landed on his other shoe.

"Don't eat the sour radish!" After scolding him, he used his eating skills from the previous two years.

Directly make a fist with your right hand, bend your right arm in front of your chest, use your waist to drive your right arm and fist, and hit the spitting person in the face hard.

This is a unique punching method of immigrants from southern Italy. It does not use wide open and close left and right uppercuts to obtain the strike radius, but uses the strength of the waist and abdominal muscles to maximize the impact of the strike.

It was no accident. The man fell to the ground on the spot and did not even stand up after crawling several times.

This unexpected situation naturally alarmed the three coaches. Seeing a key player fall to the ground, Murphy hurriedly ran over to see what happened.

In order to prevent being harassed in the future, Bill decided to properly show that he was not easy to mess with, so he pointed at the phlegm on his shoes and cursed in Italian for a long time.

It doesn't matter if the onlookers and coaches don't understand, just let them feel Bill's anger.

Then, with everyone watching, he tore off a piece of cloth from the spitting man's uniform, used it to clean his shoes, and prepared to stuff the piece of cloth into the man's mouth.

Of course, the subsequent actions were stopped by the coaches, and everyone knew the reason. Bill was reasonable, but the person who spit also received the appropriate punishment, so under the persuasion of the coaches, captain, quarterback, and dozens of classmates,

This little friction ended the story.

No one dared to make any small moves later. The intimidation of knocking out a main player with one punch was enough. No one dared to bet that they could take such a punch and not fall to the ground.

At around six o'clock, Bill, who was extremely tired, put his coat on his shoulders, carried his schoolbag and left the campus.

The school bus drivers in public schools are very responsible and take students who have participated in clubs to nearby communities in waves.

When Bill returned home, he found that it was still the same as before. His uncle and aunt went off to play by themselves after work, Anthony went to work at the gang station from 10 a.m. to 12 a.m., and Dorothy and Neo were at home.

"I'm going to make noodles for us, but there are no tomatoes."

As soon as her brother came in, Dorothy, who was doing homework on the table, raised her head and said.

Pasta is a favorite food of many poor families.

Bill limped to the sofa, "Don't worry, let me think about it. Do you know where there is a second-hand store? It needs to be big. I need to buy football protective gear."

For poor people, second-hand stores are a very cost-effective shopping option, and it is even possible to find half-price items that have only been used a few times.

"Rugby protective gear?" Dorothy was a little surprised. She could no longer understand her brother's recent behavior. "That should only be in Williamsburg in the north. Our second-hand stores here don't have such high-end products."

Thirteen-year-old Neo is round and strong, and his facial features are as handsome as his elder brother Bill's. Perhaps because he is too young, his face looks a bit childish and stupid.

His homework is not stressful. He stays at home after returning home from class. It is not easy to go next door to watch TV without a neighbor's invitation.

Just as his brother and sister were talking, he ran to the sofa, giggled at his brother, and touched his belly with both hands.

Bill understood what he meant. He was hungry and wanted to eat.

I am a half-grown boy who lives in poverty. Children of this age really cannot go hungry.

He touched the top of his brother's head and said, "Right now, I'll go find Anthony and ask for a car."

Then he raised his head and said to Dorothy: "I'm going to the second-hand store to buy football protective gear. You and Neo will go together later. Let's go have a good meal first and then go shopping. What new clothes do you want to buy?

, and buy some more for home use.”

"By the way, don't forget the gifts for your uncle and aunt. You are a girl, you are responsible for choosing them."

Shopping and stuff are the happiest things.

Hearing his brother's words, Neo jumped up and cheered first, and Dorothy also smiled rarely, although she didn't understand why her brother became so family-oriented.
