November 3rd, Saturday afternoon.

“…… Many viewers believe that as a quarterback, you are the key to the team's rapid improvement, what is Captain Howard's opinion on this perception? Or what do you think is the reason why the Fort Hamilton High School varsity team has been so good this season? ”

Linda, a female journalist in a brown trench coat, and Titch, a fat videographer with a short-sleeved cotton vest, are interviewing the Toad Tun varsity team, and coach Jack Murphy and two assistant coaches have already given the camera, and the current camera is Howard, the captain with his helmet tucked under his armpit.

In the past two weeks, the Toad Tun varsity team has experienced two regular season games, with a record of one win and one loss, with a 21-7 win on October 26 and a slight loss of 20-21 yesterday, November 2.

Compared with the previous seven games, the NFHS New York State Association has significantly improved the evaluation ranking of the Toad Tun varsity team, and the strength of the opponents arranged is also slowly improving.

This is determined by the competition system, there are more than 1,200 public high schools in the entire New York State, which has more than 1,000 teams, that is, it is subdivided into minor leagues by region, and each league also has dozens of nearly 100 high school varsity teams. In order to prevent the inappropriate rating from matching the strong team with the weak team, resulting in the strong team's record and goal difference significantly ahead of the opponent at the same level, the NFHS New York State Association will arrange the appropriate team according to the previous performance of each team in the tournament schedule.

And as the opponent grows, the score also increases, although it is not as exaggerated as one or two touchdowns per team in the NFL quarter, and the whole game is cut by three or four points, but it can occasionally cross the twenty-point line.

As a result, the reputation of the Toad Tun varsity team gradually rose in Brooklyn and New York City, and Beal, who performed the most brutally and hardest, slowly entered the field of vision of neutral fans and gradually became a well-known star player.

The best way to reflect this is that when the No. 88 player appeared on the playing field, many people began to refer to Bill with titles such as "Mr. Sports Car", "Texas Longhorn", "Buffalo", etc., instead of the previous "that No. 88".

The increase in the spread of the team and star players will make the small TV reporters and program teams who chase hot spots like flies come one after another. Today's duo of Linda and Titch is the first group of reporters dedicated to covering the entire team.

On the training ground, the bench players, who are not likely to be interviewed individually today, are doing physical training under the guidance of Assistant Coach James, which is also their main opportunity to be on camera, as the background of Titch's footage is the varsity team members training on the field.

Howard's subsequent interview with Bill Ferrari was in a predetermined order, so in order to show how hard he trained, Bill warmed up off-camera as early as the coaches were interviewed, in order to be sweaty when he entered the camera, in contrast to the reporters in trench coats and gloves to keep warm.

“…… Thank you Captain Howard for the excellent presentation and let us focus on Mr. Sportscar, the number 88 player, Bill Ferrari, who is training hard. ”

Titch rotated the camera slightly, so that Bill, who was pretending to run over here, was in the same frame as the reporter Linda.

The previous warm-up was unusually good, Bill's head was white with a burst of gas, his handsome face ran red, sweat flowed from his forehead to his eyes, and then was wiped away by his big hands.

"Huhuhu! Good afternoon, Ms. Linda and Mr. Titch. After trying to pretend to be panting after a strenuous workout, Bill began the interview with a half-squatting stride and his hands on his knees.

"Wow! Bill's training is really serious, and I now feel like a heater is standing next to me, so that the cold of early winter has dissipated a little. Linda unbuttoned her trench coat to show the incredible heat coming from the players around her.

"Some time ago, several professional rugby review programs made in-depth comments on Beale's performance in one of the games, and also touched on the topic of rules and fair punishments, what do you think about this as a party? Or what do you want to explain to the fans? ”

The biggest topic of the show was to grab the edge of the rules and reach a ten-yard push, although several former professional referees, professional players, and star coaches on different occasions decided that the offense was effective, but it still caused controversy.

"Whew~" After a long exhale, Bill straightened up and began to talk nonsense, "Everyone knows that rugby is played with the ball to advance, where the ball is, my goal is there." At that time, I didn't expect my actions to get so much attention. Actually, as a TE close end, I had only one idea at the time, which was to execute Coach Murphy's tactics and create more attacking space and opportunities for Charride, the running position next to me. When he went down with me, the only thing I could think of was to keep the rugby going......"

Interviews are one of the channels to present himself to the audience, to scouts and university coaches, and he will not miss such a good opportunity to project himself into a qualified player who has completed 100% of the set tactics, and to show his on-court ability and physical fitness by commenting on previous games.

After the first question was asked, Linda threw out the second question that attracted a lot of attention: "May I ask why you have to play tackle in the defensive group after playing the end in the offensive group?" Isn't it tiring to play 60 minutes in a normal game? ”

“…… In the offensive group, I was a cavalry spear that tore through the front line, as the knights of ancient times did, a charge piercing the interception line. In the defensive group, I was a hoplite who threatened the quarterbacks, and with me, we only needed three men to go toe-to-toe with the pocket five, and I often had to play against two or three centers and tackles to hold down the most enemies for my comrades in the second line. As for tiredness, that's not what I think about, as you can see, my body is the strongest in the whole team, and without me, the team could have collapsed at some point, and then the disadvantage was magnified little by little, so that the game was lost......"

Bill's answer is not on the same level as Linda's question, he talks about his role in both groups, and does not say why he plays two groups at the same time.

The reporter asked the reporter, and he replied to him, in a word, this interview is mainly to show his ability and playing attitude, and the rest is floating clouds.

Linda didn't care about these details, as long as the players had their own expressions, the audience was watching the rugby star they were chasing, not a 1.65 meter female reporter.

"The third and final question, how did you get into the varsity team and start playing rugby? Is it love or something else? ”

It's a question that every professional athlete is asked and Bill has been preparing for a long time, and in fact, this rhetoric can be used until the end of his career.

"As you know, I come from the Italian community...... The departure of my parents left me without guidance from my relatives...... I was so relieved of my heart that I was ready to go back to school...... Coach Murphy spotted my talent and gave me the opportunity to run on a baking sheet......"
