At the Phoenix in the Fire headquarters, GBALTZ, Brent Wright, C.J. Biggs, and Dylan Deville were all sitting around the table getting ready to place wagers on today's NFL Divisional Round games.
Dylan Deville
Just to let everyone know, I am not betting on any games, especially the Ravens-Bills and Packers-Rams games, because I don't want to get into a war with Brent and GBALTZ, and also because I don't watch sports.
C.J.Biggs
Oh, don't be a wussy! I am taking the Bills and the over, and I don't care what Brent thinks. I am all about that, BIG TRUSS!
GBALTZ bursts out laughing as he watches C.J. raise his arms up and make the infamous Mark Ingram's Big Truss pose. He then offers a fist bump to C.J. to show his approval for C.J. having the guts to pick against Brent's Ravens in front of Brent, but he gets denied.
C.J.Biggs
I don't know why you're laughing. It's not like I'm picking the Packers to win either.
GBALTZ frowned.
GBALTZ
Why not?
C.J.Biggs didn't say why he wasn't picking the Packers as he began getting up and heading down the hallway and into a room. After a couple of minutes, he returned wearing a Rams jersey and a hat, making a Rams hand symbol above his head.
C.J.Biggs
I'm taking my hometown team and the under! Aaron Donald and the Rams defense are going to wreak havoc on the opposing offensive line and put pressure on Mr. Discount Double-Check.
GBALTZ
Aww, man. Why do you have to be such a hater?
C.J. smiled slightly before chugging down two tallboys in a row. Meanwhile, GBALTZ tilted his head down as he began walking away but was soon joined by Brent, who got up from his seat while bursting out laughing. As they walked, Brent grabbed GBALTZ's shoulder from behind.
GBALTZ
Huh?
Brent didn't say a word and shoved GBALTZ down onto a bag of dog food, causing the bag to split open and bits of food to spill out from underneath GBALTZ. Brent was doubled over in laughter.
Brent
Dude, you shit yourself again!
GBALTZ
Karma bit me in the ass.
JakeTheSnake3
At least you didn't get a massive headache from Mr. Hollywood.
Just like that, GBALTZ, along with C.J. and Brent, slowly tilted their heads towards the doorway where they saw Jake standing. He was rubbing his forehead, experiencing a migraine from C.J. speaking too loudly. In his other hand, he held a teddy bear with a navy blue shirt. The front of the shirt was not visible as Jake was holding the bear in a way that obscured it.
Brent
Can I ask why you have a teddy bear?
GBALTZ and C.J. contorted their brows as they gave Brent a dirty look, not knowing what he was talking about. However, they then shifted their gaze down to Jake's left hand, where he was clutching a teddy bear to the side.
