The Humiliation

The town was shocked, the team was shocked, and the town was ready to kill the coach of the Permian Panthers. Coach recieved death threats upon death threats about the game. The coaching staff, the team, the town, etc., was simply devisated. They think their shot at the state championship title is ruined and not even in the mix. Now, more than ever, the hopes of the team are on Mike Winchell. He’s going to need to have a greater year than they thought before Boobie’s injury. He was a coach’s dream except for one major fault they all worried about: he thought too much. Mike knew he didn’t just wing the ball or follow his instincts; instead he agonized over everything and sometimes when the pressure is on, something seems to unravel inside him. And so the first game begins, with Brian Johnson breaking a fifteen yard run off the right side, followed by Don Billingsley, the starting tailback getting the ball on a pitch. There is no one more proud or who wants his son to score the TD on the first drive than Charlie Billingsley. He had worn the black and white of Permian 20 years before as a star, a legend. Billingsley is known as a screw up because his father was a legend at Permian and took his team to a state championship. During Boobies recovery, he had many doctor visits. A very good doctor was located in the rival town of Odessa. When the doctor tells Boobie that it's going to take a long time to recover, Boobie loses it. Another main player that needs to step up in Boobies absence is Ivory Christian. When Boobie returns on is own will the team is thrilled. They think he has fully recover when he hasnt. The second play Boobie is in, he recieves a season ending hit.
