American TV Series: Starting with Sheldon’s Wool Collection

"Old man, how are you doing lately?" George came to Coach Wayne and found a seat to sit down, as if he wanted to have a deep chat with him.

"It's terrible. I just went through the divorce procedures with Serena. I can't believe she would do something like that..." Finally met someone who could talk to him. Coach Wayne, who was depressed, couldn't bear it. He kept complaining about his ex-wife.

No man would be able to bear this kind of thing.

But soon, Wayne realized that this kind of thing was not suitable to talk about here, so he changed his tone and said: "Forget it, let's not mention those bad things. Let's talk about you, how you lived after leaving the team. How about it?"

"It's not bad, I found a job in a sporting goods store with weekends off..." George answered in a relaxed tone, without pouring out his negative emotions.

After that, the two of them chatted without a word. During this period, George was always looking for opportunities to persuade the other party to cheer up.

Just like that, the time came to almost ten o'clock in the morning, and as the game was about to start, the players from Xiaoyuan High School also appeared in the center of the field.

Captain Aaron came to Coach Wien before going on the stage and asked: "Coach, what tactics are we using today?"

"Tactics?" Coach Wayne obviously had not considered this issue, and then said perfunctorily: "Just use the tactics you used in previous training."

Training tactics? That means no tactics.

"Okay." Captain Aaron was stunned for a moment, but did not expose the other party's lies face to face.

After saving some face for Coach Wayne in front of George, the former head coach, Aaron led the players to the field worriedly.

"Wayne, this year's spring invitational stage is a good opportunity for you to express yourself..."

After Aaron left, George also took this opportunity to persuade Wayne next to him: "If you can lead Melford, this potential team to achieve good results, maybe it will be admitted to a certain university. The team values…”

Last year, George received an offer from the college football team just because he led the team to good results.

And Wayne, who is not yet forty years old this year, is now at the age where he should work hard and has every opportunity to further his career.

When people reach middle age, family and career must always focus on the same thing.

George also wanted to use his career success to inspire his frustrated old friends at home to get back on their feet.

"Let's talk about the summer league." Coach Wayne looked like he was in trouble.

To be honest, the unranked Spring Invitational Tournament is indeed much lower in value than the Summer League.

Of course, setting his sights on the summer game in the spring is just an excuse for coach Wien to escape reality.

When he was an assistant coach under George, Wayne's work attitude was relatively mixed.

Now that he has suffered a heavy blow to his family, his edges have been smoothed out and he has lost his enterprising spirit.

Across the way, George, who had tried his best, looked at Wayne, who had not groomed himself for a long time and looked decadent, and shook his head helplessly.

People who are willing to fall for themselves cannot be persuaded back with just two or three sentences.

"By the way, how about we go have a drink later?" Wayne, still immersed in grief, invited.

Alcohol can numb nerves and make people temporarily forget the pain.

"OK~" George nodded and did not refuse the invitation. Immediately, his eyes turned to the arena.

On the playing field, the first-guessing session between the two teams was over, and Little Garden High School was lucky enough to get the right to attack first.

As both teams opened up their formations, the first quarter of the game officially began.

Little Garden High School adopted a moderate long-short ball tactic in the first round of offense and wanted to advance steadily.

On the opposite side, the Melford team, which had suffered a defeat in the previous game, was at its best and wanted to avenge its past humiliation.

So in the midfield position, the two teams launched a fierce offensive and defensive battle.

In the end, the defensive players, led by Sam, tightly wrapped around the quarterback of Little Garden High School.

It can be clearly felt that the basic skills of Sam and other veteran players have not fallen behind.

George, who noticed this from the sidelines, also nodded happily.

After that, the game on the field entered a long tug-of-war.

Finally, with more than four minutes into the game, Little Garden High School, which had been forced to stop three times in a row, relied on a frontcourt kick to win the team three points.

More than four minutes and 3 points, this kind of scoring efficiency is not very high, but for the two teams on the field who are in different positions, it seems to be acceptable.

It was only after the exchange of ball rights that the atmosphere on the court changed subtly.

It is no secret that the Melford team lost last week, so the head coach of Little Garden High School also collected information about the opponent before the game started.

Therefore, when the Melford team, which had no extra tactical options, once again adopted a dual-core tactic. Xiaohuayuan High School opposite also immediately adopted local prevention and control strategies.

This situation, which seems to have reappeared yesterday, makes all the Melford players very uncomfortable.

It is clear that the overall strength is higher than the opponent, but due to tactics, it is restricted by the opponent. It feels like being in a quagmire and slowly waiting for death. It feels uncomfortable.

As a result, Sam was once again double-teamed by three opponents in the midfield position and had to stop to save the ball. His emotions tended to get out of control.

This is the first section~

It is conceivable that if the situation continues to develop like this, the Melford team's invitational tournament this time will only be worse than the last one.

"Wayne, the team members need you now~"

On the sidelines, George, who noticed that the situation was not good, spoke up to remind Coach Wayne, who was lazily leaning on the seat next to him.

This situation is exactly when the other party behaves.

"It doesn't matter, it's just an invitational match. It's okay to let them suffer some setbacks..." Coach Wien, who should have done something, chose to break the pot.

"Okay~"

Seeing Wayne's unconcerned appearance, George shook his head in disappointment, no longer having any hope for the other party.

In the following games, the Melford rugby team, which was unable to break through the opponent's defense, became increasingly difficult and gradually lost the initiative in the situation.

When the whistle sounded at the end of the first quarter, the Melford players, who had been suppressed for a short period of time, returned to the rest area in frustration.

Seeing the dejected looks of the team members, George finally couldn't help but stand up, clapped his hands, and after attracting everyone's attention, said: "Children, listen to me, the game has just begun, it's not time to admit defeat yet..."

As a group of old players gathered around, George also found the feeling he had when he was the head coach.

"Aaron, Sam, I need you to change your positions in a moment..." George told the two of them how to deal with local prevention and control.

As a quarterback, Aaron has better vision and the ability to pass long balls. As for the powerful player Sam, as long as enough space is created for him, I believe that not many people on the court can stop his impact.

"Also, everyone else should cheer me up, you are a whole..."

"Come on, everybody!!!"

The break in the first quarter was only two minutes. When the players were preparing to return to the game, George also encouraged the players.

The Melford players, who have gradually gained a backbone, have regained their confidence.

After the start of the second quarter, just as George guessed, with Aaron's long passing ability and Sam's rushing ability, Melford broke Little Garden High School's local defense and control strategy.

The Melford audience, who had already given up hope for their team, burst into applause and cheers when they saw the players' sudden improvement in performance.

The scene suddenly became heated.

Sometimes the competition is all about momentum.

With confidence in their hearts, the Melford players became more and more courageous after overcoming the difficulties.

Immediately, Xiaoyuan High School, which was forced to lose ground, had to call a timeout.

"Coach, what should we do next?" During the timeout, Captain Aaron came to the sidelines and asked for George's help.

"The opponent will definitely change their defensive strategy after this timeout. But you don't have to worry. Your overall strength is much stronger than the opponent. No matter what tricks they play next, you just need to play steadily..." George shared his experience.

At this point, the Melford players have completed a transformation.

As long as they don't make any major mistakes in the following games, there is no chance of losing in a head-to-head competition.
