So the more teams you can play during the season that exposes you to that, the more prepared you’re going to be for that come March.” Geno scoffs at tired, etc. 'cuz after all the pros making millions and not attending school can do it, so suck it up buttercup. Some of you know how I feel about Geno's scheduling this year and his bold statement "and next year it will be tougher." Age doesn't improve any of our worst tendencies imo. [/QUOTE]
