We've put in a lot of hard work and this is our reward now to see where we stand as a team. This trip gives us more time to solidify our team and work towards a positive direction.
You feel bad for Rod and what he has been through. He was just getting over a foot injury, and I thought he was improving. He was getting more time and was more active. He was getting closer to coming back at full strength.
I don't think we should get penalized for losing an overtime game to (the conference champions). I think that game puts in perspective how far this team has come this season.
That was probably the only time we made consecutive mistakes.
