《Be happy with sports 》Chapter 123: Change in Situation 1
Advertisement
To Eva, all the people who appeared in commercials on television were artists, and Eva was very fond of theater and cinema, so now she thought her son would also be an artist.
In fact, she was not so wrong, but instead of star Jake would be a celebrity and not an artist, especially when he entered the NBA, then it would not be difficult to see Jake on television or in magazines.
But Jake could see no reason to correct her upbeat mom if she made her happy she could even tell the others that he was an actor as Kate confused him.
So after all this shaking Jake received the second news that changed things, Liza called Jake to talk after class.
"And then Liza what happened?"
"The basketball team was defeated yesterday in the third game of the national championship."
"How did this happen?"
"Coach Philips did not want to put Harrison in the team until the end and because of that the other players who knew they could not win were in the lowest mood and did not play their best and lost."
So Jake can understand why the team had lost that game if Harrison were on the team even if they were not champions they could get to the final at least but the coach was upsetting the team now.
So Jake cannot say anything to cheer Liza that was sad because the team had lost after all things still depended on the coach and not the players only.
After a few days, Jake's television commercial was shown for the first time and the magazine was also put up for sale, watching the magazine and television commercials still remembered Jake and liked the commercial.
And Jake was already excited again, as he was not on the team he was not too sad they lost, only felt bad for his friends, so he received a call that caught him by surprise.
"Hi Jake how long, I've seen your commercial and you in the magazine is getting famous now is not it."
"It's been a long time, Eric, did I even forget about you after these two years, being very successful there in the NBA?"
"Yes, things have worked out for me here, I'm thinking of re-tracking some high school team games next season, but and you, as you missed after the third game only."
"I do not lose a game since the second year of Middle School stops telling lies."

"But I saw that the Elite High School basketball team had been eliminated yesterday, I thought that after winning last year something was really wrong, is this news wrong?"
"No, the news is right, but I have not been playing in the Elite team since the national middle school championship."
"How is this possible? Are you injured or are you in another school?"
"No, I'm still in Elite school, but the coach did some things that kept me from playing for these two years, so I'm training."
"With this it is possible! This coach is blind, and how could they win without you on the team last year?"
"Last year the team still had the players who were champions before, they won for 2 straight years and then went to university."
"So that's it, what's the name of this coach of your team right now."
"Coach Philips, he trained a team from a university and made it to the final, so after winning the national championship for 2 years he has every confidence of the school."
Eric felt that he had already heard of the name of this trainer, he hung up the phone after saying goodbye to Jake and went to do his research, his journalistic senses said that there was something more in this story.
Jake thought there was nothing too much and just kept going his days normally, but with all these things going on in the last few weeks he'd completely forgotten to call Jenny.
Jenny thought she was being ignored on purpose and stopped caring about Jake, she decided that she would stop thinking about him and forget him when she decided that she saw the commercial on television that Jake appeared, so she realized that it would be more difficult than she thought.
On the weekend as always Jake and Eva went to Anna's cooking classes and after class went to her house, getting there Jake told the two what was happening on the basketball team.
"I never liked that coach, what is happening proves that I was not wrong, Jake was always a good guy and had to stay two years off the team without playing basketball because of that coach."
"I also think, I should have gone to complain about what the coach did to my son if Jake did not stop me I would have gone."
"It would not do any good mother, it would only make things worse at school."

"Something must happen now, does not it?"
"I do not know, but if nothing happens I'm going out of school on a mid-year break."
While Jake was talking to Anna and Eva, Eric had finally finished his investigation, he knew he had heard about this coach before, was a player from one of the NBA teams.
When Eric had interviewed that player about the personality of the coach of that team that was difficult with the players, this player said that in the old college there were rumors that once a coach punched a player's face for disobeying him in the game.
As the player was also wrong for having offended the coach the matter ended only with the dismissal of the trained, but then the other players of that team said that this coach was a little crazy indeed.
And now Eric discovered that this coach was the current coach of Jake's school team, he thought it was absurd that coach who had a history of violence against his athletes had managed to work in a high school school, now he would interview directly the president of the school to do a good story in the newspaper.
While Eric was ready to fix problems the president of the school was looking at the magazine that had the photos of Jake, the president remembered that Jake was one of his favorite players and played in his school.
Actually, the president was a very busy man and had been traveling in recent years to solve many affairs with members so he could not take care of just one player, he just knew that the basketball team won the national championship last year and lost that year.
But the president did not know that one of his favorite players was out of the team and he was thinking of leaving his school soon.
When the president was thinking of leaving home he knew that a reporter wanted to do an interview with him, how would be good news for his company the president allowed Eric's entry.
Eric came in and prepared for the interview, depending on what happened he would have to disrupt the business of the president's company, so he prepared a mess.
"Hi President, I'm Eric a reporter, I would like to ask a few questions about your school's high school basketball team alright?"
"Sure, you can ask whatever you want."
"Very well, President, what do you think about the results of the basketball team these past few years?"
"I'm very satisfied, it's been 4 years since we've been developing a plan for our entire Elite school to become recognized for training stars of all sports, and I'm happy to be having good results."
"This year the basketball team did not win, you know about that?"
"I know yes, it was very unfortunate that this happened, but I believe this is normal in sports, no team can win every year."
"I had information that the coach of your school's basketball team has a history of being very authoritarian and has even hit one of your players, I wanted to know what you think about it."
The president was taken aback by this question, as his school was a prestigious one it should normally be impossible to hire someone who has a history of violence, if the students' parents knew this they would complain.
"I do not think this information is true."
"I checked this information myself before coming here, and I knew that this year's loss could have been the fault of his coach for putting good players out of the team for any reason."
So the president realized that it should be true, after all, information such as this can be easily verified, so the president was in big trouble now, the school had had a scandal a short time ago, now would have another for the incompetence of some people.
And as soon as Eric left the president knew that this subject would be published in the newspaper the other day, so he had to think of a solution quickly about it.
"Well, I thank you Eric for giving me this information, I would like to say that this information will be verified and if what you said is true I guarantee you can even publish on the matter that I will dismiss both the Philips coach and the responsibility for his hiring, we can not have a trainer with a history of violence training our students. "
Eric was impressed with the intelligence of the president as a reporter, of course, he realized that the school should not know about the history of the coach's violence, so he went straight to the president he knew he would take action on it, so he could help Jake too, Eric did not want to see Jake be playing with the talent he had.
