To Play the football
Paul Fisher doesn't really like football because his brother, Erik, plays it. Erik is rude and cruel to Paul and his friends, and Paul does not look up to him at all. The "Erik Fisher Football Dream," as stated in the book, makes up most of Erik's and Erik's parents' lives. Paul doesn't want anything to do with it.
Probably because Paul dislikes Erik, and he knows Erik doesn't deserve something like that dream.
In the book "Tangerine" by Edward Bloor, the phrase "this is the house built on the Erik Fisher football dream" refers to the idea that the Fisher family's success and reputation are built upon Erik's football achievements. The family's house, wealth, and social standing are all tied to Erik's success as a star football player. This phrase symbolizes the pressure Erik feels to excel in football in order to maintain his family's status and lifestyle.
The dream that both Erik and Dad share for Erik to become a star football player and maybe even receive a scholarship for football in college. Paul does not like it because Dad is always focusing on the Erik Fisher Football Dream (EFFD, let's call it.) and not on Paul and soccer, and does not realize what is going on with Erik and Paul.
The Erik Fisher Football Dream.
Erik's records were wiped out of the record books because his parents paid off the coaches and school officials to create a fake athletic record for him, allowing him to play on the high school soccer team illegally. This deception was uncovered later in the novel, leading to consequences for Erik and his family.
Erik Fisher was born on 1985-03-21.
Erik Fisher slaps Paul Fisher, his younger brother, in the book "Tangerine" by Edward Bloor.
They moved to Florida due to Erik's successful football career and to be closer to Lake Windsor Downs, the prestigious school where Erik would be playing football. Paul's parents hoped the move would provide a fresh start for their family.
