Grackles
Deuce Pointer sustained a meniscus and is expected to miss the rest of the season. That is his season.
He has 4,241 yards from scrimmage in five seasons, and nineteen touchdowns. His best was 1,398. This is not that, yet.
He turned twenty-seven this year. He is from Cinderbrook, Pennsylvania. Around the building he is the first man in the building most mornings. He was a mid-round pick who was the fourth-best player on his own college team. He worked nights at a rendering plant to pay for a truck he never bought, once.
The club is 1-3. Quinton Underhill is in year four of it.
He has a rule about not reading anything written about him, which he breaks, and always has.
