Quacksmenship
Alfred was a little duck who had a terrible terrible problem. He would be a total smack talker when it came to sports. He was the cockiest duck in the world. He was so arrogant and cocky that other ducks and animals never really liked him. He would run his beak saying he would crush the opposing team and would leave victorious. The problem was that he really wasn't that good in any sport. He would never practice to get better; he didn't really love to play sports. What he loved was showing off and try to get everyone's attention. Football game 1: he got crushed. Basketball game 2: not even close. It went on and on with him losing and running his beak. He never won!! He never learned!! Then one day a rat named Izzy sat him down and showed him his Alfred's own demons. Alfred saw how much of an animal he was. Baseball game 9: The opposing team of lions were on the field waiting for Izzy and his team of ducks to face them, but where were they. Minutes passed and they wouldn't show up. Right when they were about to leave, they appeared. What the lions didn't know was for the past week, Alfred his team were practicing non stop and not showboating. Game 9 turned to be a game for the books, the ducks tremendously won by god knows how much. The lions were devastated and worried to hear the horrors that they were waiting to come out of Alfred's beak. They were shocked, what they got were beak shakes and a nice compliments from Alfred and his fellow team mates. Izzy helped teach Alfred a valuable lesson: Don't be a pain in the duck: practice, have fun, and show good Quacksmenship.
