On the way out

So I feel like I start every blog the same, by saying its been too long ha. It has been to long though, but better late than never right. Well the month of january has been a struggle for thee old bee’s. I don’t know if it is just one of those mid season funks some teams can fall into or if were actually trying and thinking too much and than it back fires on us. still not quite sure! BUT i think i have good news…..

We have just gotten back from tulsa, literally hours ago actually and i think we are hopefully on the way back up and out of this funk! Why you may ask???? well after our worst loss of the season in Bossier we came back and coach sent as pretty good message to us with a no puck practice. Thats a nice way of saying, he beat thee old crapola outta us! but i think we deserved it. We than studied film and learned alot of mistakes we’ve been making in the past few games and i think we all took alot out of that day. So i think that was the start of good progress….

Than I think this is why were on our way out of our slump…. Our owner who makes a couple trips a year with us, decided to come and join us in tulsa which is pretty sweet! so as we were en route at about 6 am while everyone was sound asleep and bus driver benny was flooring it, Troy (our owner) was sleeping on the bunk in the front of the bus above coach Brooks…. when all the sudden BOOM, the joint on his bunk snaps sending him sliding down and into the cooler and fridge, hahah sorry troy but it was kinda funny now that your not hurt ya know! But as his bunk collapsed somehow missed smashing coach! Whew haha i cant help but laugh a bit now knowing that everyone is fine and dandy! but i figured we hit rock bottom right there, and we had no where but up too go! We than played tulsa to what i think was our best team played game in a long time! everyone was hustling just as hard on defense as they were on offense. It was good to see, and even though we ended up losing 2-1 in a shootout I still think we are on our way back up!!

So now back in the valley preparing to take on thee old Odessa Jackolopes on wednesday and than off to Bossier on friday starting a busy weekend, and hopefully one filled with alot of good wins!! But i’ll leave you all with a little something to keep you excited for the next month!! haha
