Sacking the Quarterback

Hello to all. It's been awhile since I've posted anything, but I continue to get emails asking me for more of my writing. In particular, since posting "North of the River" and "Collateral Damage", I'm asked for samples of my "normal" writing. This is one such example - a short story I composed and published under my real name about a year before I began publishing here as Al Steiner. This is not a sex story. I know this is a site for that genre and by posting this here I am off-topic and I apologize in advance to all who are offended by this. Please do not send me email asking where the sex is. You are warned in advance that there is none and if you're not interested in seeing my normal writing you should move on to the next story. I have changed the name of this story and certain geographic details to hinder identification of myself, but the main plot and everything else remains as I initially composed it. As always, please let me know what you think. I will be posting this in three sections over the next week or so. My email address has changed for the third time now thanks to the spamming machines. The new one is do_not_resuscitate_ever@yahoo.com

Please send all comments, positive and negative, to this address. I will respond to as many as I can. Peace to all,

Al Steiner
