Challenge # 69: And the word for January 28th is.....hotdog.
Hey, this is my first drabble. It ain't exactly the 28th though....Set round s3. Hotdog's meaning under
hotdog • \HAHT-dog\
: to perform in a conspicuous or often ostentatious manner; especially : to perform fancy stunts and maneuvers
"He stripped the ball . . ., flew downcourt and slammed it into the basket, hotdogging all the way." (Diane Shah, ESPN, December 2000)

Ryan watches over the crowd of boxers, finding their weaknesses within bad footwork and misplaced punches. His original plans to look out for Cyril were sidetracked by his need to make an easy dollar.
His eyes fall upon Miguel. His hardwired body reacting to his coach, landing severe punches to the black vinyl gloves. Side steps, feet ready to move, arms tucked tightly against his chest, dodging the mitt that swiped furiously at his head. Miguel’s cocky attitude with every precise and calculated move shows Ryan that he is a strong competitor against his brother.
“Fucking hot-dogger” Ryan smiles, knowing what he has to do.
