RE: (S29) PT 5 - Arguements - y2bobman - 06-25-2021
Ok so first of all, I'm not gunner mention who the fight was between because I'll just feel the roth of the coach. And I try to avoid that. But for some reason, I was asked to step in and sort stuff out. Usually I'm the one being put back in line so it was a change up for the books, a learning opportunity. But the thing is, I'm not book smart. But food smart, that's my thing.
So I called up my main man Brent Silva and told him to head on over to my place where I'd rounded up the two guys with hot heads. And to me there was only one way of sorting this out. Chicken. Sure, you can get respect from your teammates by saying sorry, but that ain't real respect. Respect is seeing how much chicken you can put away the night before an important game with Orange County. Me and Brent had made all types of chicken. Hot wings, hotter wings, damn hot wings, we had it all. Plus some blue cheese dip, were not animals.
Did the plan work? Not really. One of the guys did himself proud, I figured he would. The other, well, he struggled with the heat a little. But seeing a grown man cry, puts it all in perspective. The group is back to being tight now, and just in time. We pushing for that end goal. And more chicken, obviously.

Infighting within the Grey Duck locker room is around one thing and one thing only. Getting back to the Ultimini Bowl. The team can feel it, everywhere they go. They are so close to reaching out and taking back the trophy. Quarter Oles is an MVP candidate, Huntsman’s the most dangerous running back in the DSFL, Wide Receiver tandem of Malone and Sharpei Jr and tearing up the league, the defence is one of the best pass blocking units in the DSFL. So with all of that potential, all of that promise going into the final week and the postseason, it's hard to keep everything on the island as it were. Which is where Mason comes in.
When he was a Quarterback in high school and USC, spats between the locker room can happen, especially when a team loses close matches or blowouts. Mason developed a technique to deal with feuding teammates. A simple reminder to his men:
“You can fight it out and you can yell at each other. That’s fine… but where does that lead us?”
It’s a very simple thing to say, but it gets the point across. Fighting ultimately gets the team nowhere, no matter what emotions are being felt in the locker room. People tend to bond around a common goal, so reminding them of the what the goal is can be immensely helpful.

Well if I am wanting to get a certain team mate to get on board and help with this it would for sure be Marlon Brando. Everyone loves that guy and he is super easy to get along with. Would definitely want him here helping me out. Next thing I would do is you just gotta cool everyone down. Whoever the two people are we just get them away from each other for half a day. Brando take one, me the other and we just go do different stuff for a while. Time is an amazing tool, once you get a bit more distance from the situation people will be a lot more likely to want to get along with each other again. After that it would be a team drinks sesh around my house. We get some brisket and ribs on the smoker and while that is cooking for hours we all sit around a fire pit and some eskys just sinking tins and all having a great time. Tell stories of some great memories we have. Some funny moments from a game last season or reminisce about some great plays people have pulled off. Next day when we show up to training it'll all be good again. That's how you solve some arguments and get people happy again.

After a huge fight in the locker room after another sad defeat that team faced in this horrific season. The fight was over something small, but was more a result of the pent up frustration with in the team. That said, the coaches went to the heart and soul of the team, Pepelegs to figure out a way to restore team harmony, stop the constant fighting, and overall increase team comradery for the remainder of the season and into the next season. Pepelegs knew what he had to do, he had to find some event he could host that would get the team all laughing together. His plan was simple, the plan was to get a group of can can dancers to show up to practice the next day and Pepelegs would join in, hopefully making everyone laugh at him due to his smol legs fitting in well with the women who he would be dancing with. His plan went fantastically, with everyone having a great time and even Pepelegs having the time of his life with the dancers. This has now become something that happens weekly in the Buccaners locker room with pepelegs being front and center in the action. This is how Pepelegs helped the team get over some constant fighting.

Having heard a fight had broken out at practice over some trash talk that got just a bit too personal, the coaches rushed to alert me in my stasis chamber (I don't practice). "WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE FOR DISTURBING THE GREAT JIMI?" I bellowed throughout the amphitheater that was built just for my meditative purposes. "Please oh great Jimi," general manager Lip Stache pleaded, "Matt Cross insulted Negs's mother, and only you can defuse the situation." I slowly nodded then summoned 0.0001% of my psychic power to break out of my stasis chamber and float, in a cross legged position, to the practice field. "YOU FOOLISH MORTALS CONCERN YOURSELF WITH THE VULGAR BUSINESS OF ONE'S MOTHER, YET YOU REFUSE TO UNLOCK YOUR INNER POWER." There was a not a player that wasn't hanging their head in shame. They suddenly understood how shallow their arguments with one another were and how badly they needed guidance from me, their spiritual leader. "WE SHALL REMEDY THESE DAMAGED EGOS THROUGH AN EXPLORATION OF THE MIND." I then instructed everyone to move into the downward dog yoga pose and repeat the classic "Om" meditation sound. Soon none of the players could even remember there was fighting. Cross and Negs hugged for a long time. In fact, it sort of started to creep everyone out. Uncomfortable, I flew away again, this time to my base on the moon.

"arguements" - such a sid thing
If there was a fight in the LR, might as well hop in right? Get that adrenaline flowing, build some character and put that strength to the test. Depends on what the fight originated over, of course. But yeah, might as well just let it flow for a bit, let people get those tensions out. Everyone's grown up, and if you play football, you're strong enough to handle it I suppose.
I guess there's also the time to get serious and look at different methods to let out frustrations in a more productive manner, than to wale on a fellow teammate. Perhaps meditation or yoga could help out, added to weekly routines to relieve some stress. Or maybe a fighting sport like boxing or martial arts would help release some frustrations. That's what I did for about 8 years - took some taekwondo classes and got to head there after school or practices to expend the rest of my energy and just unleash on practice dummies and targets. Fun stuff, highly recommend.

It bothers me that you spelled arguments wrong.
