The Norfolk Seawolves are no stranger to the cold, and the changing seasons are often an indicator of how the fortunes of this franchise turn (for the worse) when playoff season comes into view. We asked Venus Powers, the new kicker for the Seawolves, how the team adapts to the cold weather and whether it impacts their game performance.
“The cold really helps clear your mind, keeps you sharp and on your toes,” grumbles Venus, kicking yet another extra point straight through the uprights. She stumbles a bit on the torn up practice field but recovers her footing. “We’ve got a motivated squad here in Norfolk and the weather ain’t gonna stop us from dominating!” She sends another extra point through the bars, prompting smattered clapping from the other players on the field. There are three Seawolves at practice today, a record high for the season.
We asked how the team game plans for cold weather games. Is she concerned at all about how management handles adversity?
“Where is Videl-San?” (GM Videl-San is currently away in Yellowknife, similar to most days this season.) “Whatever, someone in management will tell you what they do to gameplan.” (There was no management able to comment on the game plan.) “What matters to me and this team is winning.” (Norfolk is a dismal 3-9 and out of playoff contention.) “The cold can’t stop us from remaining dedicated to our team and to winning our final two games.” (With this, Venus stepped aside and began calling Peter Brand, GM of the San Antonio Marshals.) “What’s up dude?”
