Miss the Game Pt 1

Reminiscing about the camps. 
Who wants it more!?
Who wants to start!?
Who is hungry!?
Stress levels are rising.
Players at each others throats.
Lap after lap.
Hill after hill.
Who wants it more?!
"WE DO COACH!" 
Growing stronger every day.
Not as a person but as a unit, as a family, my brothers.
Miss new cleats coming in just so I can get them dirty again.
Lifting weights to see who was stronger. 
Who wants it more!?
"WE DO COACH!"
Miss when offseason was officially over.
Hype and Butterflies couldn't wait to get on that field.
Names in the newspaper with expectations.
First game of the season was always the best.
Practicing and hitting hard all week.
Who wants it more!?
"WE DO COACH!"
Miss the locker room sessions.
Praying to God to keep us out of danger.
Exciting to see those field lights come on.
Love it when we got prep talks.
Coming out the little tunnel.
Hearing our team name be called as we run out.
Who wants it more!?
"WE DO COACH"

I miss that feeling
I miss that hype
I miss the game....
