How long will oppression be tolerated? At what point does the boot heel pressing heavily on the throat awaken in the downtrodden a desire to revolt?
There are whispers in back alleys. Forbidden meetings are being held...strategy is discussed...plans are laid. "Six years!" They cry. "Six years of domination we have endured, but the yoke placed upon our necks has not broken us; rather, it has strengthened our resolve, tempering the steel of our determination to rise against those who have shamed us. It ends tonight!"
They know the strike must be swift and resolute. Waver the slightest...hesitate for a moment, and all will be lost. Emboldened by the vision of a future free from gridiron tyranny; a future where their children will never have to bow to King Jackson and his haughty court, they will take the field.
And the hope of a village goes with them.
