(S6) - Weekend PT 2 - Locker Room

[Oles]

Written: Must Include 150 Words. Sometimes the locker room can be a rowdy place. Whether you've just won a big game that can change the season, your team has no shot of making the playoffs, or just random down time, there is always some shenanigans happening in the locker room. Write about one of these situations, it could be anything.

This is a story from a long while ago. Back when the Liberty were in their first season (S2) and we were all young rookies just having fun, we saw one of our fellow rookies holding out. Yes, to the veterans that read this story this person is indeed Matt James. The rookie was unhappy going to the Liberty, and while we were all having fun in the locker room he was nowhere to be found, sitting around with his agent thinking that he was worth more than most of us, making ludicrous demands within his contract. Well, when he was traded away and released his line of “Failadelphia” T-Shirts we decided to buy a box of them. First, they were used spare towels if someone needed one, then the uses became more and more bizarre. A few T-shirts turned into various targets, whether it was throwing any type of ball, or a dart board, the t-shirts became target number 1, and eventually we decided to send them in a blaze of “glory” if that’s the best phrasing for these horrible shirts. We all met at the training facility and had a cookout, and then a bonfire, where we burned all of the shirts we had bought and laid to rest the bizarre situation that was the Matt James Saga.
