That's a dream start, you know. I think we worked out their game plan pretty quickly and exploited it. Everything came off. |
The earnings so far are not inspiring but it's the guidance people are looking at, not the numbers, and this has not been wonderful. |
There was a lot of space, and we've gotta get used to it. |
They were a little teed off from Saturday, and Montrose sort of took the brunt of it. It was a good challenge for us. |
Tony is a hard-working guy, who physically is a work in progress. His best days are ahead of him. He's dramatically improved from where he was a year ago. |
We didn't even talk about the game afterwards. I just told them to enjoy it. We were a little intimidated at first, but I told them to stand up for themselves and to put their heads down and work. And they did. |
We learned a lot about ourselves. Next time we play a Denver team, we'll have more confidence. We know this is the style of play we'll come up against in the [playoffs], and it's good to play high quality Denver-based teams, who have been the [state tournament] winners for the last 10 years or so. |
We simply couldn't move the ball at all. We didn't have a first down in the first half, and we only had one until the last couple of minutes. That's not going to get it done, and we have to find a way to get it done. You can make any excuses that you want, but what we did today was not acceptable. We didn't give ourselves a chance to be successful on either side of the ball. |
We weren't going to Denver for a holiday - we were there to shake things up and go for it. |
You promise them a hard practice the next day if they let up. I want them to play hard regardless of the score. |
