Update to "It's about the team" post

I wanted to include this because I feel it is important.

When Emmett Smith won the NFL rushing title he was with the Arizona Cardinals. On that very play Emmett got up with the ball and ran around the outside of the field, searching. Emmett was searching for Daryl Johnston. Daryl was there broadcasting for ESPN. When Emmett finally found him in the crowd, he handed Daryl the game ball, hugged him and through his helmet said 7 words Daryl will never forget, he said; "I couldn't have done it without you".

So when its late in the second half and your exhausted and beat up, think of Daryl. Dig deep and never give up. And when you rise victorious, look at the girl next to you, a warrior who has it left it all on the field, give her a hug and tell her "We couldn't have done it without you" because that is the essence of a team.

"We will win as a team or die as individuals"

When you take the field Saturday, and the four games to follow, remember those words.
