But I was fortunate to have a mom and dad where my mom could look at my face and know what was going on and was able to get me to talk and draw it out. As a result, I didn't have to hide an emotion.

Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it's my last, but we're talking about practice man. How silly is that?
