beaten ourselves ready run
We're going to run into that during the playoffs. We're going to be tired. We're going to be more beaten up than we are now, so we can't use that as an excuse. We have to get ourselves ready to go.

They called the meeting, and then they wanted to get tougher. It was just a joke.
great including laugh laughing lesson regular strange today turned win
We were laughing about it, sure, and we can laugh today because it turned out for us. But seriously, that was a great lesson for our team, including Marty. In a strange way, it was better to have that kind of win than just a regular win.
bad built came felt flat franchise playoff playoffs ready series winning
We felt we were really ready for a long playoff run. We came out flat in this series and we are very disappointed. This franchise is built on winning in the playoffs and this is just a bad way to end.
