Cowboy fans,

Don't lose faith! I know that the latter part of this season has been frustrating and difficult for all involved with Cowboy Football, from players to coaches to fans alike. I assure you that there is no harder working group than the Cowboy Football Family, and we will get this thing turned around. We have four games left this year, and a serious statement can be made in four games. When we return UW Football to its glory, it will make you proud to wear Brown & Gold again and will be something you are proud to support and be a part of.

This week, the first step in our four game statement, we have UNLV here at War Memorial. Hopefully it will be cold and snowing so those boys from the desert worry more about the weather than the game. Regardless, it's going to be a battle. And after the Tuesday practice we had yesterday, I doubt they will be as prepared and ready to play as we are.

We appreciate all the support thus far this year and urge you to come out to the game this weekend and cheer us on.

Well, just when it seems that I've been through enough...

Of course I wish that my football career would have ended on a more positive note. But it did end positive. I finished my career playing an entire game. I finished my career able to say that I played my last game with everything that I had. Even though I've played other games where I had better numbers statistically, I can still say that I left everything out on the field, including my football career.

I still have a place on this team. I still have a lot of myself to give. It just happens to be on the sideline.

This week we will do battle against the Falcons. This is a team whom I've respected since I was a kid. I wish I could've had one more chance to face them on the field. We have a lot of expectations to accomplish...we have to turn our season around. And it will be a battle in the Springs this Saturday.
