Some people say laughter is the best medicine, and after the pain of the Otters embarrassing defeat against the Outlaws most of the locker room certainly needed a cure. One player who made an effort to relieve the tension after the game was TE Josh Davidson, the eccentric and jolly young player who made a reputation as a jokester in training camp before making the team. His target was fellow Tight End George Wright Jr., whose stat line in the game was hardly impressive and included two catches in the closing minutes of the game in which Wright did little more than clutch the ball and fall over. Davidson let his teammate know what he thought of his wheels by placing a snail in one of his cleats while Wright had stepped away to speak with reporters. When he came back to discover something stuck in his shoes, he reached in to pull out a snail much to the amusement of bystanders. George, though, was more confused than anything, and plainly remarked, "You don't belong here..." before venturing off to find the animal a new home.
The Otters season will be defined by the coming weeks. There's no doubt that if there are more losses of this variety it will take a lot more than pranks to get this locker room back on track.
