Troy said he didn't sign the papers because his son wasn't keeping up with his chores, lying to him and he didn't get his job back but, I think the real reason why he didn't sign the papers is because like Cory said, since he didn't get a chance, he wasn't letting Cory get one. Troy was afraid of Cory being better than him.

I think troy didn't sign the papers for Cory because he thinks he knows whats best for him , because when he had a dream that didn't work he stopped believing in dreams  as he mentions many times through scenes 1-3. For example when he says "I decided 17 years ago that boy wasen't getting involved in no sports . Not after what they did to me ." This shows why Troy won't  support his sons  football carreer seriously.

Troy cant show Corey love because as a kid Troy wasn't shown love by his parents, and he wants to teach Corey that he does not need his love to go far in life.

Troy is having External problems in the way that he is keeping Cory from playing football and forcing him to get a job. Troy doesn't understand that times have changed and that blacks have a chance of making it big. It states this in the passage that Rose said times have changed. He also has Internal problems in the way that he thinks he doesn't he doesn't have to like Cory and that his only job is to provide for him. This is wrong because to have a healthy relationship he must show love to Cory and be proud of him for what he has accomplished.
