Two days watching from the sidelines. I tried to warm up on Saturday, but couldn't get through even that. Couldn't change directions because twisting the joint was too painful, especially unilaterally. Couldn't use the full range of motion in my knee. Frustrating, but I tried to help where I could--from the sidelines, feeding in drills, etc. Lots of strong players, lots of hungry players, both ups and downs for some of the new guys. You can tell who already knows what it's like to play at club speed, but hopefully the focus and intensity get better and better as we move through the season.
Saturday night was delicious, Sanborn's mom made us chicken and cookies, then I had a cider and watched the Magic put down the Cavs to win the conference finals. Actually wanted the Cavs to win, just so there would be another game in the series, but they didn't deserve it with the way they were shooting.
Sunday was scrimmages and I didn't really stick to just one team, tended to talk for whoever was on defense. Didn't cleat up, but worked a lot with the 4lb and 8.8lb medicine balls on the sidelines, doing slams and tosses. Got sunburned. Got hungry. Never enough. Team First.
