"Hey Oriole mind telling me why we are walking gym 2 hours before practice starts?"-S
"Not really"-O
"Tangosz and Moflaffle aren't here either. What's going on?"-S
"It really hasn't crossed my mind."-O
Oriole opens the gym door. Tangosz and Moflaffle are already there along with every player but Cox.
"Sleet this is an intervention" Tangosz says as Oriole padlocks the door.
The rest was to profane and graphic to be released.
========================================================================
Moflaffle, Oriole, Tangosz, and the newly redefined Sleet sit on the bleachers scouting the practice session.
"Ok you see how Cox is making perfect passes to his teammates. Quality Floor General characteristics"-M
"Well yes, but he is also aiming for the others faces, and below the belt areas."-O
"Hey there is a wrong way to pass, and there is a right way to pass. Mr. Cox seems to be doing it right."
"Yes but we don't need a second coming of Joe-Bro out there. He brok...."-O
"We don't need a 2nd coming of Bronson? And I'm the one that needs an intervention..."-S
"Quiet fool. Bronson broke 8 noses, and I think the team lost 4 balls that year. For the teams sake we don't need another one of those players"-O
"That's all? Last season alone the equipment guy quit because Douglas made bongs out of at least 2 dozen balls."-M
"Yeah I'm not talking about those balls."-O
Suddenly a ball went flying our way after Rambo tried to shoot a layup. We're 15 rows back against the back wall. He needs some practice.
"Garth go get it!" Screamed Rambo
Garth mumbled all the way up the stairs.
"Garth you look just awful."-Tangosz pointed out as Garth had a nose bleed leaking through the nose gauze.
"I'm going to kill Peter Cox."-G.R.
"Yeeeeaaaaahhhh No. The last guy that tried to do that is still missing. God Rest His Soul."-S
=========================================================================
After the morning session finished, we were lucky enough to be joined at lunch by Barney Mayer.
"Hey Barney. I see you got a Tuna Melt there. I'll give you what's left of my pride for it?"-Sleet
"Umm no. Hey Tangosz the rumor is that you were arrested here 7 seasons ago."-B.M.
"#$%^ing Lundy" Tangosz murmured
"What was that?"B.M.
"Nothing. Hey Barney hows practice going. You feel like you're learning from all this?-T
"Absolutely! Not. On the court Cox seems to be playing dodge ball, Ritchie is too concerned with how good he looks, Dwain is getting pissed that we can't understand him, and Meeks is mad because nobody really cares about him. Also Rambo beats us. I thought U-21 would be fun."-B.M.
All of the crew laughs

Tomorrow will be the last installment with these players. These installments will be spread out over a week usually, but since the first week is always hectic they have had to be scrunched into three days, instead of the usual week.
