The Book of Jeremiah, Chap 1. My Faithful Team

Jeremiah Hoffereene loses a wrestling match to his crosstown rival and crush. His coach's wife is cheating on him with the lay reader from church, who has the gall to show up at the meet and sit next to the coach's wife. Coach takes out his personal problems on Jeremiah, who is already suicidal over hunger, depression, and failing on the mat. But younger teammates Paco, Chad, and Elias won't stop pestering him with affection and attention. Jeremiah only hates himself more for wanting to eat these younger teammates alive. Now what the hell is his old man neighbor doing, up snow-blowing his driveway on a cold winter night? He's always paying too much attention to that kid next door whose parents are never home. He'll ruin Jeremy's suicide plan. Jeremy tries to wait up for the old man to go to bed, but his speed from weightloss is crashing hard. If he could just stay up, he could end this pain for good.
