(S21) - PT3 - Quarantine

[Benthicc_Biomancer]

Overall, we're extremely lucky that the NSFL and DSFL have remained free of plague driven interruptions but, if the worst should come to pass, we owe it to our teams to remain as competitive during the quarantine. To that end, ever since I was drafted as an undersized offensive lineman I've been endeavoring to cultivate as much mass as possible. A high priority for me during lockdown would be continuing to add the pounds required to be competitive in the trenches. Most of my fellow Python linesmen are well ahead of me in that regard, so I’d be moving up my plan to found Portland Fair Rub Cookin’ Club. Whilst I've no doubt we all have access to the finest nutritionists west of the Rockies, my Pa always used to say "success in life start with you".

Through the magic of the internet I’ll be starting weekly online barbecue sessions to educate each other on the finer points of grillsmanship. My man Sacamano is a wizard with the dry rub and you haven't lived until you've seen how Dolls sears a steak. But why limit ourselves to the grill? It’s 2020 after all, and my many hours spent recently sampling the finest of Portland’s bakeries has given me preference for pastries. You can bet I’ll be getting the boys into a ZOOM chat to go over the finer points of differentiating your cobblers from your crumbles. Whatever happens with the season, us Fair Rubs have to keep our mass up somehow. So with free time, teamwork and video chats we’re gonna have some fun whilst doing it. If any other Fair Rubs unlucky enough to not be on the Pythons also want to escape lockdown boredom and cultivate some mass, have your people contact my people and we’ll see if we can get you a seat at the table.
