Quote:Written Option 2: Many players teased with the championship during their career. For some it can be good regular season and good playoffs seeding, maybe you even won the series or made it all the way to the finals. Those who are most lucky actually get to taste the championship, but there is always the next season. You know you are getting close (or already got there) and the expectation is that you’ll keep improving until you win it all. But then there is a setback.

What has been the worst drop from the top your player has experienced? When did the we got this turn into it’s so over? And how did they get back on the long road to winning? Where they find the mental strenght to keep pushing after a devastating loss? Do they need help of their teammates or are they the one helping? How it makes them stronger together and helps them reach for the top again?

JJFJJ certainly is a player that knows a lot about heartbreak from his time in the Junior League. Four years in a row the Maine Timber pushed for the playoffs ending the regular season with great results, only to not take home the cup each of the times. Between second round outs and lost championship games, it had a little bit of everything. This season was the worst in a lot of ways, seeing how great of a season he had right until the playoffs where he went invisible. With how close he got to the cup multiple times it hard to stay on track. But now that he has been called up that is his way to break the streak. A new team around him, playing on the lower lines, and a new outlook on the future as part of the Seattle Argonauts is the reset that is needed for Jean-Jacques to stay motivated and to make sure to give it his all. The goal is clear: Even with no championship in the Juniors, it is time for a championship in the Majors now!
