"I understand bro. But I am for real, and I don't know why I am feeling this way, my man. Just help me out to clear this nervousness now like I did for you bro. I know you got this..."
"Of course, I got this Garriso, and I am all ready to play even if we are to play tomorrow bro..."
"Yeah, I really know how ready you are to play this season and that's why I need you to speak to me, my man..."
"Hey, Garriso. All that I can tell you is, um, you know, don't be nervous, my man. And you should be happy and cheer about this good news, because this is what we have been waiting for all these days, like joining the high school football team with the help of Miss Madison. Hey, we wanted to play, and the time is up to play..."
"Yeah, you are right Lefah, but hey, I am, and I won't lie about this to you, bro..." [Garriso sighs]
"I understand, but we can't let this go easily, bro. Hey, this is the time we have to prove to Miss Madison, Coach Wilson, Coach Theodore, the high school, our families and even the world how best we can play American football. "So, how can we start the game better when you're nervous about something which is not even yet started but next week, bro?"
[Garriso sighs] "Yes, you are right, Lefah, and I think I shouldn't be nervous once I have my brother playing with me..."
[Both giggle]
"I think you're very funny and getting crazy, but nothing Garriso. So, did you think about this well before feeling nervous about a game which is not yet to play but next week? "Hey, how many weeks have we played so far, and you want to quit when Coach Theodore played more years before quitting? "
"Hey, I am sorry, and uh, I didn't mean we should quit. I was just a little nervous and wanted your voice to push me on Lefah. But nothing like quitting..."
"Very good bro. And don't forget we are running backs players, so we should work things together just to win more games for our football team. And aside from that, this is our dream. "We wanted to play American football when we were 5 years old and both of us chose this profession..."
"Yes boss, I do remember, and later we had our mother's support to play football...."
[Both giggle]
[Training day '12' on the calendar] [The next day at Rigby High School football team training ground.]
[Coach Wilson's voice when they were training] "I really know how you boys are feeling of late. Like trying to push on what you can't, quitting, stressed and unhappy because I control your emotions here. And you boys really know how I love you, but I know you guys will surely dislike me now, but I am good and happy with it. And I really like it when players dislike me. Um, you know, I really know what will make you boys strong enough to play for me, but not your choice of training for me."
[Players train with their football team coaches at Rigby High School football team training ground. They have been training hours now.]
[After training more than an hour late today. Coach Wilson announced the league table to the players.]
"Hey, players! Please come around. "I have good news for you boys..." [Coach Wilson called the players to come around so that he could announce the league table to them before they go back home.]
[Player's cheer and laugh when Coach Wilson asks them to come around.]
[Coach Wilson's voice] "Hey! All of you should sit down immediately before I tell you the good news I have for you about last night's meeting. Yeah, just sit wherever you are now and pay attention to me carefully boys! I know how you boys are happy because our days to play or to start this season leagues are numbered now, which is next week. This is good news. I would say everybody should close his eyes and open it to play. We have been working hard, like training morning and evening, some months ago, all because of this particular season leagues. I know training wasn't essay work at all, but here we are now. Like a few days to play."
"Uh, from the first time I stepped my foot in this high school team as your head coach, uh, I realized a lot about you boys, especially your team captain, Henry. I did understand why but never liked it. Like poor communication, no teamwork, no methods of training, and you guys were doing things anyhow, and we all know that wasn't the best as a team. But with my little effort, Coach Theodore's little effort and the effort you put in have made us able to build up a strong family. I mean a strong team. Um, I got to know the reason why you boys couldn't win last season's league championship in the semifinal bowl, and now I can boldly say all those challenges have been solved by our teamwork. That's congrats to you boys. So, the team has no excuse to say that we can't win this season's league championship."
"I heard somebody saying what about the injured players, Coach? Hey! That's a nice question, my boy. But hey, let's forget about those, um, you know, the injured players for them to recover from their injuries faster, if possible, for them to come and play this season. Yeah, we will all be happy to have them back. But the team doctors are in control, so we have no choice."
"So, I think we should forget about them and that's why we have Lefah and Garriso to fix them this season. Um, you know, I managed to fix in each position, like 3--4 players to back up, and our confidence is very high in playing. I mean the team is fully prepared and on point, like straight is on point, like capabilities and ability are also on point. And I think there is nothing for me to worry about."
