Sport of Phantoms: English-Card

A Story by Abishai100
"

Sports/cards 'prince' of Earth (America) is challenged by a dream-sleep visiting 'phantom-god' insisting he link fan-jars with world kits for sanity of doubt.

A sports commentary and trading-card fanfare portrait. Happy Summer, all

"Well, it was Autumn-'25, and I was busy scouring through the stats of the new year's season of college/pro football risers and streakers and predicted shining teams/towns/schools for Western (American Homeland) sports-TV fanfare commentary for readings and superstitions and thought of my 'fantastic' Earthling football athletics nod image trading-card, featuring an 'iconic' QB-athlete who had pronounced respect for his celebrated (and fan-storied!) team/school for my Selfie-age of incomplete-arts of competition line kitchen-work."



READER: I guess the card-athlete you blog reflects promise for the given team.
ME: The team the athlete was shining for with stats has good '25-season line, no?
READER: There's much variance for intrigue in college/pro football this '25-year.
ME: Yes, and varied pro-teams anticipate nice Euro-exhibition travels (too).
READER: Your card-athlete is for a team with a culturally-standing TV-following.
ME: Yes, and I anticipate corollary pro-level teams/towns spirits for '25-writing.
READER: Irish football may compare to Celtics basketball, etc. (fan-variety).
ME: Sports for the TV/media age is the grit-and-cleats of competition socialized.
READER: Goes to globalism-rhetoric, access to contest-expressions of oculus.
ME: Facebook-like (for doubt).



"Because what I was writing/blogging concerned an Earthling symbolism-consciousness for things of competition and teams/schools biases for shares and words and anticipations and superstitions and social network 'allusions' of risk/choice, I was contacted by a phantom, a ghost-like specter, during dream-sleep, who insisted my sports/cards work with '25-season football (collegiate/pro) was print for new Earth age Selfie readings of leviathan/uncertainty (hmmm)."



PHANTOM: Hey, mister prince of Earth, maybe I'm Hades (god of the underworld).
ME: What do you want?
PHANTOM: It's your card I contemplate and inquire of here in this visit, ok.
ME: What do you want?
PHANTOM: This card you write/speak of, has parallels for schools/cities flares.
ME: What do you want?
PHANTOM: I'd like you translate an American feel of the school represented on it.
ME: What do you want?
PHANTOM: Link the school of the QB on your card to college/pro languages, ok?
ME: Aha, Irish (college) football and New England Patriots football for war/peace?
PHANTOM: That's it, mister prince...and consider the 'examination' medicine (ok).
ME: If I fail (or refuse)?
PHANTOM: I'll burn Earth down and plage the sports-dreams of all Americans!
ME: Geez, that's a jar for keratin....I'll do it (Facebook-like).
PHANTOM: Good luck (Selfie-like).
