DALLAS
— Three months after the Minnesota Vikings concluded their macabre 2016 season, the analytical gears are still meshing in the restless brain of Terence Newman.The veteran cornerback and former
Latavius Murray Womens Jersey social science major is chilling on a bench outside the basketball court at his neighborhood LA Fitness, down two games and anxious for a rematch. To kill time, Newman scouts the drinking fountains like he is breaking down film of an opposing wide receiver.
One fountain is slightly higher than the other. Newman estimates 90 percent of the thirsty gym rats will drink from the taller spout.
“
I might be the third person. One’s behind http://www.authenticcowboysstore.com/shop-by-players-andrew-gachkar-jersey-c-2_62.html the other person at the tall faucet,
” he said. “I’m like, that’s odd. One’s wide open. I’ll go to the short one. It happens consistently over, over and over. That’s just weird that people will wait.”For the next hour, I unofficially crunch the numbers. Of the 16 sweaty guys and girls who hunch over for a cool sip, 12 gravitate to the taller fountain even though the shorter one is available.
Seventy-five percent. The night is still young.
“
Don’t judge me for this,” Newman says sheepishly. “I didn’t realize how weird I was until last year. The thing is, I feel good about this concussion deal. They tell you about the mind going the opposite way. So I feel like I’m in a good space right now. My mind is still strong, firing on all those cylinders.”Newman
’s attention turns back tohttp://www.authenticcowboyssale.com/shop-by-players-sean-lee-jersey-c-2_8.html hoops. He starts ticking off tendencies of the weekend warriors hoofing up and down the court.
“
The guy in the gray shorts, he never goes left. That guy can ball. This one always pulls up for jumpers,” Newman explains.
