Date: Tue, 1 Oct 2019 16:56:46 +0000 (UTC) From: Mike Simmons Subject: It was always about the bets part 33 I woke the next morning and went for my morning run, it was great and I was in a great mood. I hadn't run for about a week and I needed it. Was considering on going to the gym for a light workout when I turned the corner onto our street and there was a car in the driveway. As I approached I said shit it was coach. As I approached he got out and said, I was hoping you were predictable enough and not hung over enough that you would run this morning. Coach, what brings you here this morning? How about some coffee I asked, sure Mike that sounds great. We got inside I started the coffee and poured a juice and said what's up coach, I'm guessing this is not good. Mike don't blow a gasket but I need to know, were you at Jeff's last night. I replied Carrie and I were there for about 30 minutes and all of a sudden we were uncomfortable and went to The Tavern to eat, which was a mistake, he laughed and said I bet that's not happening on game night again, I simply said for sure. So Mike were you drinking last night, I said Coach after The Tavern I took Carrie home and when I got here dad was still up and we had two beers each and talked till about 1:00 and I went to bed. So why were the two of you uncomfortable at Jeff's? Coach, like someone flicked a switch there was beer everywhere we decided to simply leave. We were having fun till that point and last week you couldn't get anything but soft drinks there. The coffee was ready and I got him a cup, set out cream and sugar and sat back down. Coach, I think you knew all that, well except for mine and Carrie's actions. Mike the junior class as a group are the best athletes we have had go through our school in years, I have no idea how that could possibly happen but damn you guys push ever limit and boundary there is both on and off the field and I got a shit load of complaints about the "party" last night. Mike, why was it different? Simple Coach, Jeff is hurt, can't play and Jim had a great game, he turned to one of his three vices, beer. Everyone else just went along. Mike, why doesn't that include you? Coach I am too straight laced and somewhat a loner and more focused. He said damn that's an understatement, no offense. So Mike what should I do. I said coach, coach the team and please leave me out of it. Mike you know we lose next week if I do that. Coach we already qualified for the playoffs, if you need to do something better sooner than later, besides next weeks opponents have not won a game, we might be able to JV them. Ok, Mike I'm going to talk with Jim and I'll give you a heads up, I said thanks coach and he left. I went upstairs and with a quiet Saturday and no plans, I started on school work, turning my phone off and working for 3 hours. I was starving turned my phone on and there were calls and messages up the ass. Now what the fuck, I opened my door and there was the morning PG, I went to sports and read a very flattering article about me and Jim but the last sentence worried me. The school district is investigating reports of there being a party at a players house after the game, updates as they become available. The other calls were from PSU alumnus and I deleted them all except the one from the president of the local alumni chapter, I would get back to him later. While eating a sandwich Ray called. I answered dude I have nothing to say to you, no tasks this weekend and don't call back, and I hung up. A few minutes later I called Jeff and it went to voice mail, I chose not to leave a message. I went into the game room and under the TV remote were a stack of papers and a note from dad saying we might be running out of nice days so I'm golfing, I'll be home around 5 order something for dinner for both of us we can go out, if you are home that is? I looked at the papers, pushed them aside and called Carrie. She answered saying Mike are we in trouble for last night? I said no I could honestly tell coach we did not have and alcohol last night at Jeff's. He would never ask about what we did there and besides we are teens and the same age and over 16 we are good and technically it was just oral fun not sex. She laughed and said well it was awesome for me, I said me too bade. So what's happening with the team? I said something big but I don't know yet. Then she asked what you doing tomorrow and I said I have no plans. I could see her smile over the phone, great part two of your birthday gift. We can talk tonight. Ok babe I guess you are in charge again, later and I hung up. I went back to the papers read about 5 or 6 and started to laugh. I signed them and attached a note to Tim. It read; "Tim thanks for involving me but you need to know that I know my signature on these does not mean shit, enjoy your Monday" and I signed it Junior. I put the papers on dad's desk. I picked up the phone and returned the call to the PSU alumni guy. He answered hello and I said good afternoon Tom, this is Mike Simmons returning your call. Oh Mike thanks for doing that, I know this is short notice but we were wondering if you wanted to go to the steeler game as our guest? I replied, thanks Tom I have season tickets but have other plans tomorrow with my girlfriend, we don't have much time together during football season, I do appreciate the offer. Ok, Mike enjoy you weekend. With that I grabbed my English reading and went out back. I sat there for about and hour and my head was going to explode from reading the Epic of Gilgamesh. When there was a knock on the door and it was Jeff. He said dude I'm toast. Ok Jeff, come on back and let's talk. So how bad is it? Well I am charged with underaged drinking and 38 counts of supplying alcohol to minors. They have all been charged as well, Dude that half the team and their girlfriends. Thankfully I could honestly say you Jim and Alex and your dates were not involved. I was honest as I did not need more charges. It was a good thing no one asked about the number of people having sex in the basement. Mike beside you and Carrie there were 4 other couples down there and this morning before this all blew up I found Ray and Amy passed out nude on the sofa, both very hung over. Now I have a court appearance before the magistrate Monday morning. Jeff what are your parents saying? Mike honestly they don't give a fuck about me. All they care about is that the event was at their house. We all have attorneys. Jeff there is not much I can do about this but I'll help any way I can. So Mike what's coach saying about all this, Jeff he is pissed and thinking it over but I'm guessing there will be a lot of suspended players. Thankfully it was off school property so the school Board can't react. I added stay tuned. He said Mike, I was frustrated being hurt and Jim playing so well. Jeff, I know be cool and hang in. I went back upstairs and started working on calculus thinking so much for the good mood but it will be what it becomes and opened the math book. I don't know how long I was involved but I was suddenly aware that dad was standing in the door. Hey Mike what has you so tense? I said calculus I love this shit. Well if you are serious about comp. sci. you better be. Dad I am serious and I signed up for some advanced on line non credit classes. How did you manage that, dad asked. My Fucking SAT scores qualify me for a lot, next year I'm taking more and I was serious about being done with college in three years. Dad, because I want to, I can actually pull this off and I want to spend a year traveling. Well I hope that works out. So I guess you forgot to order dinner, I closed the book and said I sure did, what do you want, he laughed and said I should tell you dinner at the club just to piss you off, but how about Chinese? I said fine and we went downstairs. We went outside with dad drinking a beer and me iced tea and dad said, so I guess you were glad you were home drinking with me last night, I said yup. Coach was here when I got back from running and we talked for a while. So what's going to happen? Dad I told him to please coach the team, leave me out of it, and added please. He was going to see Jim and then figure out what to do. Mike, how are you and Carrie today? I replied dad we are good why? Just checking he replied. Dad on another matter I signed the papers and called Tim's attention to the fact that my signing them did not mean shit and I wanted him to know I knew that. Dad just shook his head. My phone rang, I rejected the call punched in a flew thing and put the phone down. Mike, what was that, I said Ray and I blocked his number. Jeff found him and Amy passed out drunk in the basement game room, oh they were both nude. So now what, Mike? Well dad as soon as he figures it out he will come flying over screaming like WTF dude. I'll grab his ass put him in a chair and have another talk with him. Mike, how about I do that in stead of you. Damn dad please, I'm not sure I can or want to deal with him. Oh tell him he is no longer second team, he was cut. With that the food came and I started to relax. We were just about finished when the kitchen door burst open and Ray appeared screaming dude you fucking blocked me, why? Dad slowly got up went to Ray and very quietly said Ray put your ass in a chair in my office and sit there till I get around to you and never enter my house like that again. Ray just stood there and dad said now asshole and Ray almost ran into the office. We finished eating and dad said, Mike if Ray ventures out of my office just deck him, I'll be right back. He was not right back and when he came back I asked, so dad how was aunt Janet. He replied, pissed off and Mark is out of town as usual, as for Ray his ass will be in the guest room for a few days. I just replied shit dad. He looked at me and said he will not be in your way, we will talk later. Dad went into his office quietly closed the door. About an hour later Ray came out of the office crying. Dad what happened? Mike that is need to know and what you need to know is that he has 30 minutes, to pack what he need for school for the next week and he will be residing in the guest room. He is to stay away from you unless you initiate contact or communication. He is out of football for at least two weeks. About 20 minutes Ray came in dad said put you stuff in the guest room and get back to my office. With that I went up to my room and for the first locked the door when I was there alone. I called Carrie and said babe, things here are a mess. Ray is here for at least a week and right now him and dad are locked in dad's office. Tomorrow could be problematic, she said no way is Ray and his issues interfering with my plans for you and me tomorrow. Ok, ok, I'll find a way, what time and she said noon. She added please Mike, this will be different than last night. Hey babe last night was awesome I'm already looking for a way to reward you for all that. She laughed and said anytime, well not tomorrow. Good night Michael, I love you. Good night babe and I love you as well. I reached for my headphones hit play and tried to relax, I was beside myself. I don't know how long I was laying there but was suddenly aware of someone pounding on my door and shouting my name. I got up unlocked the door and found dad standing there, I said dad I'm sorry I had music on pretty loud. He said, there is no reason to lock the door and Coach is on the patio and wants to talk. Dad, where is Ray and he answered in the guest room. So can you and I and coach meet in your office and he said sure. I went outside and asked for him to come into dad's office so we could all talk, Mike if you want your dad in on this that's fine but there is no reason to involve him, you are good. Coach there are other issues, which are not good, that could involve dad. Dad and coach shook hands and we all sat down. Mike as you might know Jeff is in a lot of trouble charged with underage drinking, which is the lease of his issues as there are 38 charges of supplying alcohol to minors, his parents also are charged as well. With all those charged he will be suspended for weeks including the game on Friday. In addition a couple will be suspended for a second week as a result of the fight. I said, coach what fight, the one that occurred on the street as people were leaving, this also includes the naked player found in Jeff's basement game room. Coach, Jeff said he fixed that before the police got there today. Coach said Mike, Jeff simply lied to you and I bet Ray did as well. Dad and I both tensed at the same time. They are not being charged as they were the same age and over 16. I am suspending him a second week for public nudity. Coach, this all happened off school property, how can you react at all. Well Mike team rules, which were explained the day I became head coach. Then there is public pressure to reign in this junior class. It can be a fun ride with these kids, but there are rules and while kids will be kids you don't flaunt the breaking of the rules, he looked at me and said is that right Mike, I simply said correct. Coach, when will all this be announced he said at a general assembly first thing Monday morning. I'm not looking for approval, I promised to give you a heads up and that was it. I walked Coach to his car and before he got in he said Mike, you are walking a very fine line, don't trip on the line. You have broken everyone of the rules those people are being punished for you just were on good behavior that night, it must be your girlfriend. Coach, you are right, since you took over as coach, I have had beer, smoked about 4 cigarettes and have had sex. Coach 99% of the drinking has been here with dad, all the cigarettes were here in the backyard except the night dad and I had drinks and we smoked in his office. I have been smoking like that, on very rare occasions since I was 11 or 12. I don't flaunt it and I am discrete and sex with my girlfriend was not two drunk teens loosing control. So the line is not that fine but based on what I just told you if you suspend me this week, I'm good with that. Michael Simmons, I knew all that there are so many people watching you I don't know how you deal with it all. One thing please be nicer to the PSU alumni local guy, he could not effect your deal, but there are other kids behind you that he could impact. Play that game a little better for those behind you, Coach I get it, he hit me on a very bad day. Thanks and I'll see you on Monday. I started to lock up and heard dad yell Michael come in the office. I knocked and dad said Mike just come in. Mike I have a feeling Ray owes you a task, is that correct, I said yes he does. Give him one right now, I immediately said Ray since you like to be discovered nude, while you are in this house till Friday you will be nude, there will be no exceptions, so strip. Ray looked at dad and asked can he do that? Dad said is it in accordance with you bet rules, Ray hung his head said yes and started to strip. When he was nude dad said Ray, have a good night and if I find you breaking that task I will take a belt to your ass. Get out of here. Then he said Michael sit down. He smiled and said great task. What you and coach talk about, I said all the team rules I have broken since he outlined them that first day. He said he was more than aware but if I was discrete and not stupid he understood. Dad he added there are a lot of people watching me and he is worried about my ability to deal with it long term. Mike, I'm of the same mind. Dad, I have a date with Carrie tomorrow. I'm afraid to ask what you two are doing? I said dad I have no idea. It's part of my birthday gift. So dad said, it will be almost like sex, same as last night? Dad I don't know, it is her gift. Try not to worry. Good night. I went upstairs and knocked on Ray's door, he said what? I went in gave him a hug and said Ray I'm sorry you are into so much shit. What happened Friday that caused the melt down. He said none of your fucking business. I started to say something and decided to say nothing and went to my room.
