(S5) - PT 2 - Holiday Cheer

[bovovovo]

Borkus Maximus III spent the holiday season training. It's all he could do, really, since the DSFL preseason was supposed to start but didn't. So instead of playing, he spent his time practicing. He and his fellow DSFL players couldn't go home because "we might play soon" so they spent their holidays away from loved ones, throwing balls around and lifting weights. Borkus Maximus III actually didn't mind, even before moving to the US he had always been a firm believer in "no days off," "grinding," and "working out every day." He accepted his role as a motivator in the Chicago locker room, dragging fellow DSFL rookies out of bed and into the weight room or out to the practice field to get some reps in. Even though the holidays were upon us, Borkus Maximus III took advantage of the free time to work on his game as he prepares for his first ever DSFL game (even if it is just preseason). Specifically, Borkus Maximus III took advantage of the heavy Chicago snowfall to familiarize himself with playing in the snow, and to take some pointers from other Chicago athletes on how best to deal with the cold weather. Apparently slathering yourself in Vaseline helps.
