Bayou Bengals Practice Facility Media Room. Patches is wearing his practice gear.
Patches steps up to the Podium
Patches: I know you in the media like to talk about Patches. You like to label me as if I'm not a team player. That I"m selfish and only care about myself.
Patches: You have no idea how far from the truth that is. To prove that. I'm willing to make a good faith Action. The few days I've been with Coach Murphy and seeing how his vision, Coach Allen's Vision, and the GM's new Vision is (long pause) I have agreed to take a 20k cut in Salary in order to free up our cap and allow us to sign some depth and reward some players who are making a difference.
Munich Tribune Reporter: So you don't feel like you are making a Difference. Has your hand been forced because of production
A disgusted Patches: You bastards are always trying to twist reality. ARe you kidding me. This is for the betterment of the team. I'm our top producer on Offense. I Just came off a 100 yard performance. Does this not show how Unselfish I am.
Fans start Chanting: Patches Patches Patches!!!!
Coach Murphy walks to the Podium.
Murphy: Patches is showing his committment to the team and to this Offense. Patches will be rewarded when this team turns things around. WE ARE A TEAM!!! NOT INDIVIDUALS!
Murphy: Patches realizes that when the team succeeds he will succeed and thus be paid Justly.
Murphy: Coach Norton vows to have the record for largest attended games. If that happens revenue will dictate pay increases. It is simple. WIN and our players will get paid
Murphy: This conference is over. We got a game tomorrow!
