Question

In the book tangerine. What do you think about erik the next day when he "calmly, deliberately,...drilled his field goals..."?

Answer 1

Erik is an insensitive, terrible person. It seems as though Erik is not affected by the death of Mike Costello and actually benefits from his death. In the previous entry, Paul says that Mike Costello did not fit into the "Erik Fisher football dream". Paul watches Erik kicking the ball into the uprights with his new holder, Arthur Bauer, and is disgusted by how easily he can just move on after a teammate of his was killed.
