Brad shoved his brother into the refrigerator, and T.J. promptly pushed him back. They were grappling with each other when their father strode into the room and ripped them apart.
"What on earth is going on in here?" Mr. McKendrick demanded, his face red.
"Nothing," Brad said.
"Nothing?" Mr. McKendrick asked.
"Nothing other than the fact that T.J. is an obnoxious jerk."
"Hey, you're the one who's threatening to quit the line," T.J. said.
"I'm not threatening to quit the line. I'm threatening to get you kicked off it."
T.J.'s green eyes flashed. "Go to hell!"
"Look, I don't know what this is about," their father began, "but you two have an obligation to your teammates. You can't just go back on that because of personal differences."
"He started it," T.J. said.
"I don't care who started it. I just want it stopped."
