There was a game, early in the season, during which Rock watched a fantastic first play run by the Texas Longhorns. The play involved such intricate timing that it was clear the team had rehearsed it hundreds of times, and it worked perfectly against whoever Texas played that day. Rock agreed to write a story about it, but he realized this story idea would require too much effort, particularly on a Saturday morning in the middle of a college football season.
He would have to talk to somewhere between five and ten players and coaches, almost all of whom were no more than a few hours away from game times. Besides, he couldn't find the play anywhere on the internet.
Rock was immeasurably frustrated. He was furthermore fearful the paper would no longer offer him assignments.
