Humans of New York
He
told me he wanted to be a "soccer star," but wouldn't say much else,
probably because his teammates were hovering around him. But later on,
when I asked the coach who the strongest player was, he pointed out this
boy. "We made him captain," the coach
explained, "Because he takes it the most seriously. If we lose, he
won't talk for the rest of the day. He always shows up early to
practice. If we're not around, he organizes the team and has them ready
when we arrive. And if anyone loses their temper during the game,
he'll reprimand them and tell them to just focus on winning."
