I’m sure if it was up to him, he’d come out tomorrow and still play but that’s just the kind of player that he is. This has been hard for us all year. With the transfers. Just nagging injuries. Now this. It’s tough, you know. If there’s something about this team, we find ways to make things happen when it seems like all is lost. And things are getting tough, you know.
