Part One: Jeremy Naquin, the linebacker
Jeremy’s Journal
September 13, 2027
As expected, Coach Nickle wasn’t happy with us. After watching the tape, I can’t say I blame him. He got on me pretty hard on a few plays, too, while watching film. On one play, I was blitzing. I went right at Drummond, but the RB stepped out and knocked me on my ass. According to Coach Nickle, “How you gonna get knocked on your ass by a tail back? Them motherfuckers ain’t got but 175 pounds on them drippin fuckin wet with a cum stain. How you gonna get knocked on your ass by a cum stain?” I didn't dare tell Coach that the guy that blocked me on that play is a solid 240.
At least I wasn’t the only one. We all got slammed, especially the secondary, since Vancouver passed for a lot of yards on us with their back up and Jim Rice, a damn good wide out, caught 10 passes and 2 TDs on us.
Practice was pretty intense today, too. Coach Nickle said he wasn’t going to let us rest. He said winning on the road isn’t easy, but the best teams find ways to do it. He said he still has to toughen us up some. That son of a bitch can do it, too.
Also, I peeked at how some of the fellow rookie LBs did this week. It looks like a few guys had damn good games and some of the guys who didn’t play last week didn’t play again this week. Right now I’m tied for second behind Burt Hoang with 8 tackles. Hoang has 11. Also, I’m the only player to force a fumble. Daniel Murphy has the best game so far. He had 6 tackles, an assist, and an interception.
