Paul and Joey are both younger brothers of football stars. They both attend Lake Windsor Downs. While Paul buries his emotions. Joey lashes out. They process stress in different ways. Paul even comments, "I took in the ugliness of Joey's words, and I saw, for the first time, how different he was from me—different parents, different friends, different brother" (2.11.32). Psst, Paul: We like you better.
