I must say I was disappointed in the second part of the book. The author did a great job setting up a plot with the soccer players from the school getting suspended because Paul Fisher "ratted" on them. With Paul Fisher changing schools and becoming friends with those soccer players he told on I thought was going to have an interesting event in the second part of the book. However, the author seemed to dismiss the point when Paul told the players that he was the reason that they had been suspended. Then it seemed to be forgotten. The author of the book seemed to put a great deal of emphasis on showing how tough these soccer players were. Then when the time came for a reason for them to get really angry at events they seemed to take a very weird stance on the situation. It almost seemed that they let Paul Fisher get away with "ratting" on them. With the way the author spent so much time writing about the toughness of the soccer players at Tangerine Middle School, the reaction and the retribution to Paul Fisher would have been different.
