American TV Series: Starting with Sheldon’s Wool Collection
Chapter 104 Opportunity
Mike sent George to the door of the teaching building, and the two parted ways.
Next, Mike plans to report to the Mathematical Olympiad team.
"Hey, isn't this Coach George? Pack your things and where are you going?" At this time, Grete happened to bring his son to the door of the teaching building.
At this time, he had a familiar smile on his face, and it was completely impossible to tell that he looked sorry for George before.
"Stop pretending, I have resigned from the team. Now you are satisfied~" George frowned and stared at Grete, not giving him a chance to get close.
"Don't say that. It has nothing to do with me that you left the team. It was entirely because you were not good enough..." Grete put away the fake smile on his face, and his tone became gloating.
"Whatever you say!" George, who had already decided to leave, didn't bother with the other party. He took one last look at the Melford campus, turned around and walked out.
"Coach, I'm sorry, I didn't know my dad would be like this..." Sam, who was following his dad, took two steps forward, as if he wanted to lead his dad to apologize to George.
Sam also knew something about what his father had done. After his bad character changed, he vaguely realized that what his father did was wrong.
"No need to apologize, Sam. This is an adult matter and has nothing to do with you." George looked at his team members and his expression softened a little. Then he encouraged: "You are also talented in rugby. If you decide to take this path, remember to train well in the future."
Strictly speaking, Sam's rugby talent is not top-notch, but it surpasses many people. If he can train his skills as a running back or defensive end well, even if he can't become a professional player in the future, he can still play in a local league.
"I will, coach." Sam nodded seriously.
After the training of this summer league, he can be regarded as a prodigal son, and he felt the charm of rugby.
"Okay, Sam. He is no longer your coach. Now, we should go meet the new head coach to prepare for you to be the quarterback next year..." Greet stopped his son and looked at him proudly. Glancing at George and Mike.
This year he donated money to the school football team, infiltrated the ranks of sponsors, and deliberately targeted George. The ultimate goal of this series of preparations is to enable his son to become the team's main force - quarterback.
After all, in the eyes of outsiders who don't know much about football, the quarterback on the football field is the most popular.
Seeing Sam being dragged away by his father, George originally wanted to say something. But in the end, he realized that he was no longer the team's head coach, so he should leave the problem to Coach Wien to solve.
In fact, with Sam's character and ability limit, he is not suitable for the quarterback position at all. If he insists on developing in this direction, he will not only drag down the team, but also waste his talents as a running back and defensive end.
Shaking his head to get rid of the distracting thoughts in his mind, George said goodbye to Mike again and left the school.
George drove home alone and saw his wife in the living room.
Mary's job in the church is actually pretty good, except for the low salary.
Mary only had to work full time on the weekends when believers were worshiping. When there is nothing going on in the church, she only needs to work half a day at most.
"George, why are you back? Doesn't the team need to train?" Mary, who was knitting woolen gloves on the sofa, asked.
The Texas summer is winding down, and Mary is knitting some gloves and scarves for her family.
"I was about to tell you that I have quit my job with the team." George put down the groceries in his hands and went to the refrigerator to get himself a bottle of cold beer.
Normally, George is not allowed to drink beer due to his health.
But Mary couldn't care less about that now. She dropped the knitting needle in her hand and asked in surprise: "Why? This year's team's performance is so good, isn't the school preparing to give you a salary increase? Moreover, if you don't have this job, what will happen to your family's expenses in the future? manage?"
The economic situation of the Cooper family has just shown signs of improvement. Now George suddenly lost his job, which was a major blow to the family.
Mary's meager salary at the church was simply not enough to support the living expenses of the three children at home.
The issue of money is very realistic and important for a large family of five.
"Don't get excited, I haven't finished talking yet." George took a sip of his beer and said calmly: "Actually, there are other schools poaching me. The salary they offer is very high..."
After hearing her husband's words, Mary seemed to change her face, and then smiled: "Which school is it? Austin, or Houston?..."
As for teams that could offer high wages, Mary could only think of those strong teams in Texas.
"NO, NO, NO, none of them~" George shook his head. After his wife guessed several schools in Texas, he smiled and took out a letter: "It's Oklahoma University~"
During this time, not only Mike received invitation letters from many schools. George was also spotted by other universities because he led the team and achieved good results.
And this precious letter that George holds in his hand is also the basis for his courage to resign readily.
But after seeing the letter in her husband's hand, the smile on Mary's face froze, and she asked, "Is it a school in Oklahoma?"
"Yes, Oklahoma High School is the best high school in Oklahoma, and their school's football team is very strong..." George did not notice the change in his wife's expression, and was still looking forward happily: "The school over there is The school board has promised me a high salary, and that's not even the most important thing.
You know, good teams are more likely to get good results. I might even be able to get an invitation from the university by virtue of my good performance at Oklahoma colleges..."
George usually looks indifferent, but if he really gets an opportunity, he won't let it go.
Because of the format, the high school football league will not charge tickets. College football leagues can sell tickets.
In other words, if George can return to his position as a college coach, his salary can at least be doubled several times.
With money, the quality of life of your family will naturally improve.
Being able to realize self-worth while taking care of his family is George's ultimate goal.
"Wait a minute George, I am very willing to support your work. But what if our family all goes to Oklahoma?" Compared to her husband's excitement, Mary's face no longer smiled.
If the family really wants to go to Oklahoma, Mary will not only lose her job at the church, but also have to readjust to the local interpersonal relationships. This will be very difficult and troublesome for a housewife.
Mary couldn't accept this change.
"It doesn't matter. Oklahoma is not far from Texas. We can come back often to see Connie." George said optimistically.
Oklahoma and Texas are adjacent to each other, and the distance is not too far. If you drive, you can walk one way in a day.
"Okay, George. Your new job affects the whole family. I think you should ask the children for their opinions." Mary said with twinkling eyes.
"Of course, the children's opinions are important. However, I will convince them..." George said confidently.
Until now, he hadn't noticed that his wife's face looked wrong.
