Hump Day Kick Start

Song of the Day: Back in Black by AC/DC

It’s time for some Fantasy Football!

Tell me about today’s prompt. Who is he? A Pro athlete? College player Maybe he’s a cop/cowboy/zombie/lawyer/(insert your own hero here) who plays with his buddies on the weekends.

He seems to be deep in thought. What do you suppose he’s thinking about? Could he be wishing he’d thrown that hail Mary? Maybe he’s bemoaning that his abs are too flabby. Or perhaps he’s thinking of some special cheerleader in his life.

And why do you think he’s so dirty?

    Derek ripped off the sweat-soaked jersey and threw it across the locker room shower. He couldn’t believe he’d missed a perfect pass. Again. Sixty yards, a glance over his shoulder, and a second later it slipped through his hands and bounced into the end zone. Second string, the coach had told him the minute he’d stepped off the field. No better than second. Just like he was to his father. Now the old man would expect him to come crawling back to the business Derek loathed yet was expected to take over some day. To his father, football was only a game. To Derek, it was everything.

      Wonderful, Kristina! In just a few sentences, you really captured the emotion, the angst. I’d want to read more. Thanks for playing along!

  2. Honestly, I could care less what his story is…hehehe! I just wanna sit and stare for a while. I hope that whatever it is works out, just as long as he doesn’t move from that spot!!

    Unfortunately carefully airbrushed ‘dirt’ and spritzed-on ‘oil sweat’ wasn’t enough to let Brad the bodybuilder tryout for football. He needed equipment, and not the kind that was in his pants.

    Even worse, after coating his gloves Lester Hayes stick-em style, he had no idea how he was going to get the ball off his hand, much less turn on the shower.

      Way to de-Alpha him, Kristen. (I know, I know, de-Alpha is not a word. I haven’t had my Rock Star this morning.) Still, I laughed. Great job, Kristen!

    Ronald’s gloom had intensified after the recent workout. For one thing, why was he wearing those heavy, hot sweatpants? Oh yeah, the team manager vetoed his Speedo. Whatever.
    But the real issue was his hunger. As long as he had to keep “THE BODY” in this condition, he’d have to survive on liver shakes and wheat germ. But what Ronald wanted more than anything else — including a tumble with lovely Krystal — was to dive into some pork rinds, nachos, cheesburgers, milkshakes, Hershey bars, beer, and cheap, raunchy TV dinners.
    Yeah, the sex with Krystal would be a delicious 90 minutes … but with that much high-fat food, he could make a night of it.

      HAhaha! Once again, Jeff, you slay me. Love it!
      You know after 8 months of dieting and losing 40 pounds, the only thing I can focus on is nachos, cheeseburgers, milkshakes, and Hershey bars. *sigh*
      Thanks for playing along!

    Glad you enjoyed it, Jenn. I’ll admit this one stumped me for a while. Then I figured, what would I be thinking about if I had spent years getting my body in such condition?
    Well, I’d be HUNGRY!

    Hey jbray–bring your own svelte self over and we’ll hang out eating junk food and watching dreamy Michael Fassbender as Jane Eyre’s best Mr. Rochester ever. I think I need some m&ms.

    Yeah.. I think de-Alpha is a word. Or should be. πŸ˜‰ Thanks, Jenn! This was the most fun I had today. And that was before I had to leave for my paying job.

    Oh, and I can bring salsa and chips!

    Yeah … can you imagine how hungry some of these body-builders must be? I mean, other than energy shakes, and protein supplements, they prob. can’t eat anything. I’ll bet they dream about food rather than women. ROFL
