(S30) PT 2 - Alternate History

[Reno]

Why football in the first place though if it wasn’t her initial calling? Some loser named Jason Garciaparra convinced her to do it back in high school, and while it was never her first love Tessie still found it super enjoyable. Being a safety in high school connected with her main love of surfing. Waiting in the back of the field, watching the pieces move and determining the most effective way to make her mark, the exact same as sitting on your board analyzing the wave to determine where you want to begin your initial run. Then the adapting on the fly; the player goes the place you weren’t expecting, the route gets broken up entirely too early, the wind picks up changing the height of the swell, the current gets faster throwing your balance off, the similarities don’t stop. As to what Tessie would be doing if she wasn’t in football? It would be surfing, without a doubt surfing (sim league surfing when?). Whether it’s Hawaii, Australia, some random dude’s backyard in Texas, if there’s surfing involved Tessie would be there. It does create a bit of an issue when practice is going on and she’s busy surfing but in the end there’s no place she’d rather be.
