Drama. The Orange County Otters have experienced more than their fair share of drama in this opening sets of games. Heading into the season, stories were high. Winning three of four pre season games and being pre season favourites to win the ASFC set the internal expectations for the Otters at an incredibly high level. Agnus Winchester was jolly in his role of team enforcer, barking commands with a determined but friendly disposition. Dominic Verns was leading defensive huddles, setting cheers, and making jokes about how slow the opposition was in the pre season. Leroy Jenkins and Mike Boss were cracking jokes at each other's expenses with regularity, each one out trash talking the other.
By week two, that had all changed. There was a sombre air to the post game talks. Each pre game routine was tense, focused, tight. Prep and game plans were no longer disseminated with confidence and authority. Agnus quickly developed a hard tone to his instruction. Dominic began with crass self talk, no longer leading defensive cheers. Leroy and Mike quickly circled the wagons and never let anyone trash talk the other.
If the drama in the Orange County locker room is to change, it's going to have to start with some wins.
