(S29) PT 1 - Training Camp

[Painted]

Training camp sucked. First it started with all the rookies reporting. They all got introduced to the facility and briefly went through the playbook. They had their own scrimmages and everything trying to get up to speed for when the vets showed up. But once the vets did show up, all hell broke loose.
In an effort to really get to know what it meant to be a Grey Duck, the coaches thought it would be a good idea to let an actual grey duck coach the team for a day. First, there is no such thing as a grey duck! That is just a local term for “goose” in the game duck duck goose. So they brought in a loon instead. Second, the loon didn’t even know which kind of football we played! He kept going on about “making passes” and “using your head” all day, but no one realized he meant soccer until he got appalled at the rookie wide outs trying to grab the ball in the air.
At least the new kicker got a lot of reps in though, but I don’t know how useful kicking under the bar practice will be for in game situations! But hey, the loon did show us all how to fly, and that was neat. Too bad flying is illegal during games. Smh my head.
