When the talk about going international hit the news of the team, kicker Levy Tate was the first one everyone on the team thought would jump on the opportunity, and boy did she. She has a nickname of “Sloths” because of how much she loves sloths, so she immediately offered to visit and help out Costa Rica. One hundred percent to help the local American football teams improve and definitely not to see sloths in person… Unphased by her bad and transparent reasoning, the coaches and her teammates all let her go on her trip, and she was thrilled come vacay day.
Of course, it wasn’t all sloths and trees, she did have to actually coach, and that was an experience in itself. Naturally, the kicker and punter specialist was not very adept at coaching any other aspect of the game. So to help the young players understand the drills better, she tried to use analogies. Sloth analogies.
“So to intercept the ball, what you will want to do is to track it down and then jump under it. You want to make sure you jump real high, though! As high as sloths can climb! And they can climb really tall trees despite their lethargic tendencies. So make sure you jump that high! But don’t fall from the tree, you’ll die just like the sloths that fall asleep and fall from the tree.”
Come the end of the week trip, many of the young players complained that they didn’t learn anything. But they did enjoy the field trip to the jungle and to see the sloths in person. So that was a win I guess?
