Week 2... There's a first for everything.


Week 2 was still a transition week, but also a week where the coaches really start expecting you to catch on to what they've been coaching you for the last week. Before Monday's practice coach makes us huddle up and he says this week is the week where you show us what you've got and why you deserve to have a starting spot on this team. So Monday's practice was nothing short of a hard competitive head knocking practice. Play after play they guy across from you, your teammate but also your enemy because he's trying to make you not do your job and you're trying to make him not do his job is going one hundred percent every play, and that could be rough if he's better than you. Wednesdays practice was my first time ever practicing in the snow, needless to say it was freezing. Still the coaches expected nothing less of us that day. Just because of a little snow doesn't mean that we still can’t give it our all at practice. So practice on Wednesday was pretty interesting. By the time Friday hit, all the snow was melted leaving the ground wet and muddy, which means it was going to be a dirty practice. Because of it being so muddy the coaches let us do a "thud tempo" practice which means that no one gets tackled and we go about seventy percent. After practice I knew that we messed up pretty bad when I went in the locker room and the whole ground was full of mud, and I knew right away that we were going to get punished.
