They make brief eye contact, and even in the hazy morning light, Jeremy can see the red blush on her cheeks and tinting her ears, wearing a Billings Wolves t-shirt that’s a couple of sizes too big and her leggings. “ Please don’t tell Alexandra about this. “ Alicia softly requests.

He sighs t” think for a second before whispering, “ Okay, I won’t tell her, but you need to tell her yourself before the game tonight. I promise I won’t tell her till at least then, but I will talk to my friend, Lloyd, though.”

She rolls her eyes and sighs, then heads to her room.

Jeremy starts to work out while trying to figure out what happened last night between Lloyd and Alicia, to result in what he saw just outside of his room. He loses track of time as he suddenly feels a hand on his shoulder.

He looks over to see Alexandra; smiling, he goes in for a kiss. As they finish the kiss, he says, “ You’re a sight for sore eyes. I missed you. I couldn’t wait to work out with you. Are you ready? “

    Heather rolls her eyes in the passenger seat of the car as Alexandra is waiting for an answer, then says, “ How long have you known me? I’ve seen you in relationships before, and I see how he looks at you. As well as, you didn’t sleep in your room last night, but you slept in his room. You can’t deny it because I went to your room this morning while you were apparently working out, and you weren’t there. The bed was completely made, just how it was like when I checked both rooms and tried out the beds. “ Alicia, in the back seat turning white as she fears that Heather knew her secret, speaks up a little sheepishly, “ I I didn’t know that; I thought you were in your room. I’m happy for you, regardless. “Alexandra looking in the rearview mirror seeing Alicia looking white as a ghost, says to her, “ Are you alright? You look like you don’t feel good? “Alicia struggles to reply as she replies, “ Umm ya-yeah, I’m fine. I just may have had a few too many last night. I might have a hangov

    Jeremy heads to the Cannibals bench and then to the VIP room to change as the coin toss was going down. He puts the top hat on the table and starts to undress. He hangs up the outfit after putting it in the suit bag, then decides to take a quick shower door as he worked up a sweat in the Ringleader outfit, and he wants to be clean and smelling fresh for Alexandra. After the shower and getting dressed, he took the suit bag to his office, then locked the office before heading to the owner’s box. With a big grin on his face walking into the owner’s box, Jeremy says, “ What did I miss? “ Alexandra chuckles as she says, “ Just a clown parading around in a Ringleader outfit on the field. “ Lloyd starts to laugh before saying, “ I really like this young lady. You need to keep this one; she’s good for you, keeping you honest. By the way, you need to do something about that coach of yours. He’s not going to be good for the league or for the image of your team. “ Jeremy sighs as he replies,

    Alexandra entered the visiting owner’s box, and she was welcomed by jubilant conversation and lively banter. However, she was in no mood. “ You. “her voice bombed over the sound of laughter as the whole team paused to see whom she was addressing. The tall redhead's finger was leveled on Alicia, “ I said you, with me, now. We need to talk. “ Next, her gaze fell to Heather, “ You too, ‘cause I need a witness.”An echo of whispers filled the room as various other players commented, “ Man, I’m glad I’m not her. “ and “ Well, it was nice knowing her. “ “ What is wrong with you? “Alicia hissed, her ears bright red from being called out. Alex had eyes of fire as she yanked her friend into a nearby Conference room. “ Don’t you start with me! What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with you! Jumping some old man’s bones! “ “ Whoa, pump the brakes! Alicia did what now? “ Heather interjected. Now all eyes fell on Alicia, who stood pale with clenched fists. “ What I do is not your business, and i

    Jeremy had to find Alexandra and try to mend things with her as he realized his mistake. He goes to his suite box, but she wasn’t there; then he looks over at the visiting team’s box, and there’s no one in the suite. He could and would search through the whole stadium to find her, but he wanted to talk to her before halftime was over, and there wasn’t much time left till the second half started with about eight minutes left and counting down. He gets his phone from his hip clip and begins to text her:[ I know you’re upset and understandably so. I know I messed up and I would like to talk to you before halftime to reconcile my mistake. Please tell me where you are and I will meet you there to talk. ]There was a brief pause, and the phone beeped back with the return message. Jeremy checked quickly, his hopes slightly dashed.[Yeah, I am, but I’m cooling down, so I don’t think talking right now is a good idea. We can discuss it after the game. I’ll meet you in the conference room after

    Alexandra closes her eyes for a quick second, taking a deep breath to collect her thoughts and what she wants to do. She had to remind herself that this wasn’t the same situation that had happened almost twenty years ago and that she should give him a chance because she hadn’t told him why she has issues with alcohol, but she wasn’t going to deal with him tonight. She had to think of a plan to make sure she would be able to sneak out without seeing him due to the autograph obligation; she knew that she had texted him that she’d meet him in the conference room, but she doesn’t deal with people who are intoxicated as a rule; she’d deal with him tomorrow when he’s sober. In the meantime, she was going to enjoy the rest of the game with her friends and team on Jeremy’s dime. Lloyd seems to have finally got Jeremy to be leveled and centered. They watch the end of the game and watch Terrell make himself look foolish because of his interactions with the fans, the team partners, the referees

    The text is from Alexandra that says:[I’ve already left, heading to Linger with the team. I just don’t feel like talking about this tonight. I’m not mad I just need some time with my team. I’ll talk to you soon, have a good night ]Jeremy is disappointed after reading the text, but he understands. He’s going to give her the space that she’s asking for. He calls Linger and gives them card info for the Denver Outlaws meal plus a 30% gratuity for a tip. He walks around the coliseum to make sure that all employees and fans have all gone. There were just a few employees that were packing up the team store. He tells them to go home, they’ll be paid as if they stayed, and he’d finish up packing up the store, then put the bins in storage. He enjoyed the quiet, being alone as he worked; it helped him process his thoughts and distracted him from his feelings. Not that he didn’t want to have any feelings; he just was too busy to be depressed as he wanted to amend things with Alexandra.A coupl

    Jeremy wanted to keep the whole date a surprise as he realized that they hadn't done anything that didn't involve football or sports, and he wanted to go the extra mile to surprise her with having an actual romantic date.He looks at Alexandra and says, " I want it to be a surprise. Can I pick you up at about five pm? " Alexandra, who doesn't like surprises, puts on a false grin saying, " I guess that's fine; I'll see you at five then. " She turned, heading into her apartment building as he watched her walk away from his truck; once she was in the building, he drove off to run his errands quickly as possible as he only had about five hours before he would be picking her up for the date.As he's getting his errands done, his phone rings as he looks at his phone; he rolls his eyes at who is calling, Tommy Pelaratti; he regrettably answers the phone, " What do you want, Tommy?

    Before she can finish up her hair and make-up, her apartment intercom buzzes, she figures it was Jeremy but had to be sure. She answers the intercom to found out that it was indeed Jeremy, she buzzes in him, telling him to just let himself as she goes to finish up. She apologizes when she hears him come in while shutting the door. He informs her that was alright that he was a few minutes early that there wasn't a set time. Alexandra told him to make himself at home while she finished. He looked around and was quite surprised by how nice her apartment was. It looked like it was straight out of a home decor magazine. the clean contemporary furniture and modern art complimented by a few plants here and there. The more however he looked around, he noticed a lack of personal items. There were very few pictures, those that did sit about the room looked old and worn. She comes out as Jeremy gets off of the couch, hearing her footsteps coming from the hall. " I appreciat

    The morning after the Cannibals’ thunderous victory over the Wyoming Cavaliers, Denver was still buzzing. Headlines blared about the 113-0 blowout, the record crowd, and the Cannibals’ “unstoppable experiment.” But inside the city’s heart, in the quiet corridors of the Denver Coliseum, the mood was somber.Jeremy Davis had spent the night at the hospital. He’d watched the sun crawl up over the Rockies through a window in the waiting room, the taste of stale coffee and worry thick on his tongue. When the diagnosis came, it was worse than anyone had feared.He thumbed out a text to Jenifer Walter as he left the hospital, his hands shaking with exhaustion and anger.Jeremy: “Meet me in my office. It’s bad news about Trisha. I’ll tell you more when I get back.”He drove through the waking city, the streets still empty, his mind racing. The Cannibals had built something beautiful, something bold. Now, in a single, brutal play, it all threatened to unravel.A Bitter MorningJeremy’s office

  • Blindside Beauty    Opening the Gates

    The Denver Coliseum was alive like never before. It was the 2004 Wild West Indoor Football (WWIF) season opener, and the Colorado Cannibals were hosting the Wyoming Cavaliers after winning last year’s OK Corral Championship against the Omaha Cattlemen. Every seat in the Coliseum was filled, fans packed shoulder-to-shoulder, their voices rising in a thunderous, electric roar that rattled the rafters and sent a charge through the city. The Cannibals, defending champions, were back-and Denver was ready to see if their bold experiment could deliver a second crown.Banners from last season’s triumph hung from the upper deck, and the field gleamed under the lights, painted with the Cannibals’ fierce logo at midfield. The air was thick with anticipation and the scent of popcorn, sweat, and hope.In the tunnel, the Cannibals players bounced on their toes, helmets in hand, eyes blazing. Alexandra Jordan stood with Heather Wammack and Alicia Gresham, their faces set with determination. Trisha S

  • Blindside Beauty    The Cannibals Unleashed

    The Denver Coliseum was alive with a new energy. The rest of the Colorado Cannibals’ training camp was nothing short of electric. From the moment the sun crested the Rockies to the last echo of cleats on turf, something had shifted in the air. The players moved with a kind of reckless joy, as if they’d all been set on fire and dared each other to burn brighter. Alexandra Jordan, Heather Wammack, and Alicia Gresham were at the heart of it all. Their intensity was contagious-every drill, every rep, every snap was sharper, faster, more focused. They played like they had something to prove, not just to the league or the skeptics, but to themselves and each other. Jenifer Walter, ever the keen observer, watched from the sidelines, arms crossed and a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. She didn’t know what had gotten into them, but whatever it was, she wasn’t about to question it. If this was what it took to make her team special, she’d take it. On the field, Trisha Steinmetz was a

    The fluorescent lights in the Denver Coliseum women’s locker room flickered softly as Alexandra, Heather, and Alicia finished changing after the first day of Cannibals training camp. The room, once a VIP suite, now gleamed with fresh paint, sturdy benches, and the unmistakable buzz of a team on the verge of something historic. But tonight, the air was thick with something else-shock, excitement, and the lingering aftertaste of Alicia’s bombshell announcement.Alicia, still glowing from her engagement revelation, zipped up her duffel bag. Heather, towel slung over her shoulder, stared at her in disbelief, then turned to Alexandra with a look that said, Can you believe this?Heather finally broke the silence, her voice rising in mock outrage. “You know what this means, right? We have to go celebrate! Alicia is getting married!”Alexandra and Heather both let out a cheer, the tension instantly melting into laughter. Alexandra grinned and nudged Alicia playfully. “So, you’re marrying a gr

    The morning air around the Denver Coliseum was crisp, tinged with the electric anticipation that only the first day of training camp could bring. The sun had barely crested the horizon, but already the stadium was alive: the thud of cleats on concrete, the buzz of trainers and coaches, the scent of fresh-cut grass and chalk dust.On the field, Trisha Steinmetz was already in full gear, her number 10 jersey bright against the green turf. She moved through her warm-up routine with laser focus-high knees, quick feet, crisp throws to an assistant coach. She looked every bit the leader that Jeremy and Jenifer had hoped for, her presence setting the tone for everyone who followed.Inside the newly converted women’s locker room-a former VIP suite now decked out with fresh paint, sturdy benches, and rows of lockers-Alexandra Jordan and Heather Wammack were just starting to get ready. The room hummed with the low thrum of nerves and excitement. Alexandra pulled her jersey over her head, glanci

    The late October air in Denver was crisp, the city shimmering under a cloudless sky as reporters, photographers, and Cannibals fans poured into the Denver Coliseum. The press conference room buzzed with anticipation, today was not just another signing day. Today, the Colorado Cannibals would introduce two of the most talked-about women in football: Alexandra Jordan and Heather Wammack. The stakes were high, the scrutiny intense, and the future uncertain.Jeremy Davis stood at the podium, his suit sharp, his posture radiating both pride and nerves. Behind him, a long table was set for the day’s stars: Head Coach Jenifer Walter, Alexandra, Heather, and the team’s new media director, who was already juggling calls and camera crews. The Cannibals’ black, purple and crimson banners framed the stage, bold and defiant— a fitting backdrop for a team daring to rewrite the rules.Jeremy tapped the microphone, the room quieting instantly. “Thank you all for coming. Today is a special day for the

    The Denver skyline shimmered in the crisp October sunlight, the city’s pulse quickening with the promise of a new football era. Alexandra Jordan sat cross-legged on her apartment couch, a mug of coffee cooling between her hands, when her phone buzzed with an incoming call. The name on the screen—Jenifer Walter—sent a flutter through her chest. She took a steadying breath and answered.“Hey, Coach.”“Alexandra, good morning!” Jenifer’s voice was bright but businesslike. “I wanted to catch you before the press conference this afternoon. We’ve got some news.”Alexandra straightened, curiosity piqued. “What’s up?”“We’ve agreed to terms and signed Trisha Steinmetz as our quarterback, along with a couple of other pieces. We’ll be announcing the signings later today. I wanted you to hear it from me first, not the media.”Alexandra’s eyebrows rose. “Trisha, huh? I’m not surprised. She’s a baller, and Jeremy was her QB coach last year. Her game really jumped a level under him.”Jenifer chuckl

  • Blindside Beauty    Building the Cannibals

    The conference room inside the Denver Coliseum was a world apart from the roaring crowds and the echoing footsteps of hopeful athletes. Here, the air hummed with anticipation and the scent of strong coffee. Sunlight spilled through tall windows, illuminating stacks of scouting reports, video tablets, and two thick binders—one marked “JENIFER” in bold, the other “JEREMY.”At the head of the table, Jeremy Davis leaned forward, elbows braced, a familiar spark in his eyes. Across from him, Jenifer Walter sat with her own notepad, her posture relaxed but her gaze razor-sharp. This was the heart of the Colorado Cannibals’ future: two football minds, one vision, and the daunting task of sculpting a 25-player roster that would not just compete, but define a new era.The silence between them was comfortable, broken only by the occasional shuffle of paper or the tap of a stylus. They’d already spent hours debating schemes, culture, and the kind of team they wanted to build. Now, it was time for

    Alexandra Jordan’s downtown apartment, perched high above a city lit in electric gold, was a familiar after-practice haven for her best friends—and fellow Denver Outlaws teammates—Heather and Alicia. The coffee table was cluttered with takeout boxes, cans of sparkling water, and the scarred deck of cards they used when deep talks called for a distraction. The TV muttered game highlights into the background, unheeded.Tonight, the air was different. After nearly an hour of mindless TV and the usual banter, Alexandra finally spilled what had been on her mind since her dinner with Jenifer Walter at The Gold Cleat.“So that’s what happened,” she finished, tracing the rim of her glass as she watched Heather and Alicia’s reactions. “Jenifer was…straight with me. And for the first time, it felt like someone really saw what was going on inside my head, not just what everyone expects from me on the field.”Heather, lounged out on the couch in sweats, flashed her a reassuring smile. “It sounds
