Trust me, I'll be back soon;
I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
"Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

I seriously think he could play the next game and is only being held as a precaution. So, look for him to miss one game and we get to see if Thad can be a long term viable backup with a 10 day practice week. All good.

I read the thread start and clicked the link. Work filters gave me a blank page.
I then assumed King was saying He would be back soon... Perhaps he was promising to beat drug charges or a vague domestic violence wrap.
I am glad this thread is about EJ.
