Quote:Written Task: Many professional athletes have a pretty strict regimen to prepare for games. When games start at 7PM that gives you a lot of time to fit in all your little rituals and pre-game prep. But... games start at noon now. So how are you going to adapt? What does your player normally do to get ready for games, and how are you going to adjust your schedule to get yourself ready 7 hours earlier? Is this a welcome change for your player? Or is this a huge wrench in the system? (150+ words)

Growing up on the seas you learned to grab sleep whenever it was available. Timezones were never something that was a concern. Only where the sun was in the sky. The league changing the game time from 7pm to noon just means that Jarrow gets to start drinking at earlier time. Now instead of a 11pm start, the rum will be cracked at 4pm. There likely wouldn't be much if any other changes to how Spack approaches the game since life revolves around the next time he is on the ice.

The reason why it won't be a huge wrench in the system is actually what was considered a knock against Jarrow when he was first coming into the league. He had a blatant disregard for any kind of warm up routine. It was very unusual behaviour for such a regime heavy sport and at times rubbed his superstitious teammates the wrong way. However, so far in his career is has appeared to be a benefit as he has been able to perform regardless of what is happening off the ice which is what you want out of an athlete.
