For one of the nation’s ascendant offensive stars, this bath routine is a means to enhance both his preparation for football and his recovery from its rigors. Before a game, it allows Foster to visualize the many responsibilities the Sun Devils heap upon him to keep defenses off-kilter. After a game, he hops in to to soothe his aching joints and muscles. In either case, he is all to himself. He is at peace. Or he would be, if only his roommates permitted it.
"They’re jealous," Foster says. "They ask me to borrow some salt every day. They’re just hating. They want some, too."
There's a lot to like about DJ Foster of Arizona State, but the two best things are a.) he's a deeply sensible person and thus hopefully doesn't go on to the NFL, and b.) he's all about baths, which are great things people should take regardless of gender. #TeamBath
