If you ever see one of our initiation rites - "The Guantlet" - you would know.

Imagine . . . an open field corridor, 50' wide and 100' long . . . 10 players on each side with 150 - 200 rounds of paint EACH . . . one sole player at the entrance with goggles FIRMLY in place . . . he slow walks the 100' taking fire from all.

We have all walked it - some more than once, none more times than me (the Captain). It is part of understanding that pain is not an enemy. We have taken more of it from our brothers than anything the opposition can dish out. It is a small trial-by-fire experience we all have in common.

I have more scars from my own team mates than from all the games I have attended and I trust every player on my team.

Not that we take everything too seriously.
