This will be a short week of preparation for the Crocodiles as we prepare to play the Turku Trojans at home on Friday night. I have a long trip of about 4 hours each way over to Kuopio on Friday before the game. It will be the last of my 3 speaking engagements that I have done since being here. The sessions focus on team building and increasing motivation in the business environment.
Practices are going okay this week, but we are really banged up right now. We had only one offensive lineman dress out for practice yesterday. I also have a nice dilemna on my hands as we have 4 American players on the roster. We are only allowed to play 3 at a time, so someone is going to be sitting this weekend. Basically, somebody is going to be very angry and probably threaten to leave. It is the kind of decision where I just might flip a coin because none of the 4 guys deserve to sit.
If the weather stays nice, we are going to spend the weekend in Helsinki. There are some sites that we want to take in and we don't have too many weekends left for roadtrips.
Here are the last of the pics from the Scandinavian trip.
