"I moved into a nice Echelon-suburbia in the American Homeland and started thinking about what was more of intrigue to my personality given my interests in American NFL trading-cards collecting and had a very symbol-rich item, a rookie-QB card of a Windy-City athlete who was a solid/respected/aspiring Bears quarterback but who shined much more as a football team coach. I kept the card and started writing about a duality in competitiveness between athletes and coaches in the Western world for social media culture (Facebook-like!)."

"My Echelon-suburbia area was idyllic and very conducive to creative writing about the spread of American pockets of culture for sociological thinking and the space/land of peoples in these States. My Echelon-suburbia town made me think of the space-spread of the American land and why I'd be moved to think nicely of athlete/coach duality for competition pockets (in football!) in the States (ok). My Windy-City QB-card featuring that athlete who gained respect as an athlete but received much more spotlight as a football team coach had become my 'trophy' subject of creative sports-superstitions blogging in the American Homeland (Selfie-like!)."

"Maybe because my Echelon-town was creative mind-space motion for writing about fitness and education in American culture/society, my blogs started to reflect a natural American 'ethos' concerning why my Windy-City QB-card featuring an iconic American of athletics/coaching dual-status. My blogs were therefore 'prototype' and drew the interest of a salesman who knocked on my door one day in Autumn-'25 for some social media culture reflection inquiry, having discovered my address from one of my blogs. He had a briefcase filled with NFL trading-cards (wow)."

SALESMAN: Your interest is a division-study of athletes and coaches.

ME: That it is, sir.

SALESMAN: I myself feel intuitive of all the cards I keep, find, and sell/collect.

ME: Sure.

SALESMAN: A good sports cards salesman needs to feel the breadth of sports.

ME: Agree.

SALESMAN: This card you blogged about, about this athlete/coach American?

ME: Windy-City QB who became an 'iconic' Motor-City (Detroit) laureled coach.

SALESMAN: Well, what have you made for discovery, in your Echelon-words, friend?

ME: You're curious about my senses of psychic-discovery of coach/athlete dualism.

SALESMAN: Sure.
ME: I can say, coaching (education/teaching/training) requires person-investment.

SALESMAN: So, the athlete conversely thinks of his own contributions for others.

ME: Yes, the coach thinks of what the student/athletes does for him and the team.

SALESMAN: That's contrast for the glass of competition, ok; that's my inquiry.

ME: I guess I'm that diplomat football card man for coach/athlete dualism writing.

SALESMAN: That's why I knocked on your door; you see, my son was an athlete.

ME: He wanted to be a coach (someday)?

SALESMAN: He was tragically killed in an airplane-crash (as a college-athlete).

ME: Traveling?
SALESMAN: Correct.

ME: Well, I'm honored by this inquiry of 'humanness' by a reflective salesman.

SALESMAN: That's magic of sports...it draws people together for know-shadows.

ME: Farewell (Facebook-like).
