Every weekend I would check the internet to see which players were playing and who was scoring goals. I've always had an interest to follow it. I would say I don't think I'll have too much of an adjusting period because these are players I know and get along with. I'm coming in to work my butt off and try to earn a spot and help the team win. Beasley loves it here, too.
Players have chances to leave.
Mike Petke was offered a contract in Germany and he decided to stay. So I think that says something. It's still painful. It's not painful to walk or breathe or anything like that. But when I do play I'm going to have a protective padding and that should take away that element.
