American TV Series: Starting with Sheldon’s Wool Collection
Chapter 49 Bet Training
At the end of the family gathering, Mike had thought of telling George the recipe for the secret barbecue.
However, I realized that the conflict between Grandma Connie and Coach George was not as simple as a recipe.
Therefore, Mike decided to come back and seek Grandma Connie’s opinion first.
"George is indeed a little angry with you." After Mike stated the facts, he persuaded: "You and George are family members. I don't think you need to target him so much."
Judging from her previous actions, Grandma Connie’s performance this time was indeed a bit excessive.
As a family, George has been hardworking and uncomplaining over the years, shouldering the burden of the entire family on his own.
And he also takes good care of his three children. From this point of view, he has hard work without any credit.
And there is really no need to cause family disharmony over a secret barbecue recipe.
"I knew that fool would be angry." Grandma Connie smiled, not realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Then, she continued: "More than ten years ago, I discovered that he was very interested in my secret barbecue recipe. But I want him to understand that he can only get my things if I agree..."
Apparently, Grandma Connie was still very concerned about the behavior of George, a young gangster, who got on the bus first and then paid the fare.
When George got Mary pregnant, he also failed to get Grandma Connie's blessing when they got married.
"Didn't George already ask you about the secret recipe? I think he is very sincere this time." Mike did not get too entangled in Cooper's family affairs and continued his persuasion.
"No, this is not about a secret recipe. You don't understand, George is a thief." Grandma Connie shook her head, and then suggested: "How about we make a bet?"
"How to bet?" Mike asked.
"Just bet...this week, will George come and steal the secret recipe without my permission?" Grandma Connie showed a profound expression and said: "If George behaves normally this week, I will personally hand over the secret recipe for barbecue." Give it to him and apologize to him. How about betting or not?"
It can be seen that Grandma Connie, who loves to play, is very enthusiastic about betting.
Mike thought for a moment and considered that if it was a week, his chances of winning should be very high. So he said: "Okay, I'll bet with you..."
"It's a deal~" Grandma Connie said with a smile: "If you lose, tell grandma how many girlfriends you have had."
As she spoke, Grandma Connie returned to her usual ungrateful appearance.
Obviously, she probably heard some rumors about Mike at school from little George. In addition, Mike rarely talked about his personal affairs at home, which aroused Grandma Connie's curiosity.
"This..." Mike hesitated, wanting to change his bet.
In essence, Mike is a "conservative" person, and he does not want to share his personal privacy with others.
"That's it." However, Grandma Connie didn't give Mike a chance to refuse. After she made sure to place the bet, she got up and walked towards the room.
When she reached the door, she stopped suddenly and said, "For the sake of fairness, you can't tell George about the bet, otherwise you will lose."
…
Over the next few days, school resumed normal classes. Only the football team was given the privilege to train all day.
After Monday's game, Mike was promoted to the school's "star" with his outstanding performance.
Every time after class, many girls from all grades would come to the sidelines to watch him train.
There are even bolder girls who will "show love" to Mike in front of everyone.
As the frequency of these "shows of affection" increased, it became an alternative feature of Melford High School.
But compared to the increase in fame, Mike is a little unhappy now.
After a few days of training, he found that it was difficult for him to obtain physical attributes directly from the team members.
It seems that everyone has a threshold: just like Little Sheldon, it was easy for Mike to obtain intelligence attributes from him at the beginning.
However, slowly, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain attributes.
"Dingling bell~"
The school bell rang, and the girls left the playground reluctantly.
Mike, who was resting on the sidelines, returned to training as the girls left.
At this time, a middle-aged man carrying a camera at the school gate was walking towards the playground.
This person is Jack from the local TV station. Today, he shaved off the stubble on his lips, and had his Mediterranean hairstyle specially styled. His overall mental outlook looks much better.
"Hi, Jack, you're here again." Coach George greeted Jack warmly when he saw him arriving.
Excluding Monday's game, this is the second time Jack has come to the school to watch everyone train this week.
"I'm going to shoot some more material for Mike. When he becomes a big star in the future, this will be his personal special." Jack smiled and expressed his intention.
Obviously, Jack was very optimistic about Mike, and he bet all his performance this quarter on him.
Coach George is not disgusted with Jack's behavior. In his opinion, the other party's promotion of Mike is equivalent to promoting the school's football team.
After Jack set up the camera position, Coach George cleverly called Mike over who was doing confrontation training on the equipment.
Then, he looked around the field, skipping Sam, and called Captain Aaron over.
"Aaron, put on your protective gear and have a confrontation drill with Mike." Coach George said.
Training dryly on equipment is not as intense and exciting as a real-person confrontation.
Aaron is so red-blooded that he has been treated as a tool by the coach.
"Um...coach, I'm a little uncomfortable today..." After Aaron knew his next fate, he felt a little resistant.
Since his physique exceeded 150, Mike has developed in the direction of not being a human being. For ordinary people like Aaron, confrontation training is masochism.
"So many words, hurry up and get ready." Coach George saw Aaron's little thoughts and didn't give the other party a chance to refuse.
In fact, Coach George also has his own plans in mind. He knows that Aaron has a dream of playing professionally.
Now I just have the opportunity to appear on TV. Even if it is used as a background, it will definitely have a lot of benefits for Aaron's career path in the future.
"For a while, remember to be gentle..." Aaron whispered as he passed by Mike.
"I'll try my best~" Mike showed a kind smile and put on his helmet.
After both of them were ready, Coach George acted as the referee and issued an offensive command:
"Start~"
Following the order, Aaron lowered his center of gravity while running and accelerating, stretching his arms forward, trying to hug Mike's waist.
He knew that his own strength was no longer a match for Mike. He did not seek victory in this confrontation, but only hoped to entangle the opponent so that his defeat would not be so ugly.
In the view of Mike, who has third-level football experience, Aaron's confrontation was full of loopholes.
The moment the two came into contact, Mike pushed away the opponent's hands, turned sideways and used inertia to throw Aaron away.
In this confrontation, Mike used all his skills and didn't put in much effort.
"Aaron, don't think so much. Your goal is to knock down your opponent." Coach George taught Aaron who had just gotten up.
In his opinion, Aaron is good in every aspect as a captain, but his personality is too gentle, and to put it bluntly, he lacks offensiveness.
This is not a good thing for Aaron, who is aiming for a career.
"Come again! Let me see your determination~" Coach George encouraged.
"Okay!" Aaron also knew the weaknesses of his character. This time he seemed to draw strength from the coach's encouragement, and his eyes slowly became firm.
"Wait a minute, I will go all out." When Aaron passed by Mike, he said again: "Please also go all out. I want to see how big the gap between you and me is."
Seeing the fighting eyes of the other party, Mike nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Start~"
With another command, Aaron put aside his distracting thoughts. He increased his speed and turned slightly sideways, wanting to have a head-on confrontation with his opponent like a real man.
However, in Mike's view, Aaron, who was seeking to take the initiative to attack this time, showed more flaws.
At the moment when the two collided at high speed, Mike shrank his body and his center of gravity quickly lowered.
When his shoulders touched the opponent's abdomen, Mike's core strength was instantly activated, and his whole body suddenly rose up.
"OMG~"
As the team members screamed, Aaron drew a beautiful arc and fell heavily to the ground.
On Mike's side, it was equivalent to completing a different kind of over-the-shoulder throw.
This was a perfect display of strength and skill.
"Are you okay? How do you feel?" Mike knew how strong he was and hurried over to help Aaron up after falling to the ground.
"I'm fine~" Aaron smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Sometimes the gap between people cannot be bridged through hard work. In particular, Mike or Aaron watched and grew up little by little.
This also made Aaron feel very powerless.
Coach George was also shocked by the intensity of this confrontation. He quickly came over to check on Aaron and found that the opponent was not injured.
Then, he patted Aaron on the shoulder happily and encouraged: "Well done, go and take a rest."
In this round of confrontation, although Aaron's performance was unsatisfactory, coach George saw a momentum in him.
This is a good start for Aaron.
