Honestly, my favorite part of the day was going to play practice.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every Friday we'd do a final practice 'walk-through' for the game, and I just remember we were always out on the field dancing and singing together.
I didn't think I was going to play that day. I'd have to thank the training staff for getting me on the field that day. They made a bigger deal than I thought it was.
I am happy to have played a match and break the rhythm of daily training.
It was another day to go to work, and try to play and play well.
I really enjoyed every minute of it. I mean, I've learned so much in the last week, I mean, just the way to play a real, real doubles. It was a great experience for me, and we had a lot of fun.
I had fun coming every day and playing in front of a packed house - it was exciting.
I couldn't wait to get on the ice. I couldn't wait to get to practice. As a kid, I couldn't wait to shoot pucks or play in parking lots, or play on the river or play on the bay.
It was a very exciting time for me to play professional football, finally.
I love opening night, and I love doing plays. But one of my favorite parts about doing a play or working on a new play is rehearsal.
I hadn't been practicing or playing or anything. But that had been a vital part of my life.
