It's the toughest loss by a thousand times. It's a very good season and I'm so proud of everybody but that hurts more than anything else I've been a part of.
couple feeling good last letting rubs talented talked today tough trusting upbeat work
It's been a tough couple of days, but they showed up today and were upbeat and feeling good and that rubs off on all of us. We talked about that last night, we've got to relax. We're a very talented group, that's not in question, and we all want to work hard, that's not in question. It's just letting it go, just trusting it.

We knew they'd be fired up. We've all gone through something like this during our careers when there's a shakeup or a tough change and you band together and get fired up. They battled and competed and found a way to get that third goal that we didn't get.

It was a negative year, no question about it.

There's some grunting. The challenge is how fast you go from that tuck to that full position.
ahead chance fun morning saw woke
We didn't like the way we woke up this morning and saw they had jumped ahead of us. That's what makes these back-to-backs so much fun is if you lose, you get a chance to get right back at it.
