I'm starting to remember

just how hard it is to run a practice without having your own play suffer. Tougher than I want it to be. I didn't play well, but then again the overall quality of play was somewhat low---it was the first chilly night we've had, with misting rain and wet turf to compound the cold. We taught some concepts before practice on the whiteboard, mostly ho-stack cutting. Saw some good potential, was hoping that the first A-team practice would be better but it's a good reminder of how much work there is to do this year. We have a long way to go.

Oh, and before practice...
