Lacrosse

35- Explain the Game

Michael Corbin

Why did I tell him?

Oh you should know by now that I do everything for a reason.

And that reason is always winning.

It's always to win.

The kid needed to know.

Before, he was sad.

Sadness doesn't get you anywhere.

If anything, it would have only made him play stronger, angrier.

He would've been more physical and after he nearly strangled me that's the last thing I needed.

So what did I need to do?

What I do best: insight panic.

Josh Thompson isn't one to take anyone's shit.

He will fight back.

He will try to get revenge.

And being that he'll be getting revenge on his own team, nothing could be better.

He's too caught up in emotions.

He doesn't see what truly matters anymore.

He has let love, sadness, anger, and hatred take him away from what's important.

Winning.

Lacrosse.

That's why I have cut out emotions.

I don't need them anyway.

They make me weaker.

Lacrosse players should not be weak.

Josh is weak.

He will destroy himself.

He will destroy everything he has worked for.

He will hand me everything I have earned.

He will fight the spies.

He will get vengeance.

He will ruin their chances.

Maybe he'll get the Kendall girl back.

I don't give two craps about that.

All I know is that when he gets his hands on the boy, he will be killed.

When he gets his hands on the girl, she will be an emotional wreck.

And it will be gold.

Pure gold.

I only wish I would be there to see it happen.

But I guess I'll see the aftermath on the field on Friday and Saturday.

And I can't wait.

That State Championship will be mine.

I can almost taste it.
