Linebacker Block

Linebacker Block — page 5 — Yeah Because it isn't fair Logan pointed out His dad groaned and rubbed his neck Logan we've been over this he said It will get easier What about the guys on the football team Logan shrugged and looked at his dad What about the guys on the team he repeated Don't those guys go out on a Saturday night his dad said Maybe to a movie or to the skating rink or something The skating rink Logan said with a laugh Dad come on I don't know his dad replied shrugging When I was young we went roller skating What do I know Not much Logan said smiling Well I guess I can be glad I don't have to play against my old team We're not playing River City this season I checked the schedule

Linebacker Block — page 6 — Good good his dad said And listen This will get easier for you Logan You'll get to know the kids in school and on the team You won't be stuck at home on Saturdays for much longer I promise Logan nodded I know he said Hey I'm going to send an email to Scotty Hansen back home He got up from the couch and clicked the TV off I mean he added quickly back in River City His dad laughed and headed up the steps

Linebacker Block — page 7 — CHAPTER 2 OLD FRIENDS After school on Monday Logan plodded down the hall toward the locker room The football team had practice every day after school Logan pushed through the locker room door and sat on the bench in front of his locker At least I have the football team Logan thought as he pulled open his locker He put on his pads for practice and found his practice jersey in the back of his locker
