I’m sure a lot of you are wondering my thoughts about this week. I need sometime to think and decompress before writing my re-cap. So for now I’ll just say this:
A coach very close to me once told me; “You will win and you will lose. It’s how you handle the losses that will define you as a coach… not the victories.”
This week was an emotional Roller-coaster. It took me to my lowest low and then to my highest high. I will not take back one call I made and I will own them. I coached two of the fittest men in the world this week. They have become family to me. What happened to Bill yesterday was tough and it hurt badly. However, in spite of that you still have to charge forward. Today, James Grundler came out swinging. He executed his game plans precisely and earned himself two epic top 3 finishes. In the finals he proved that he truly belonged on the big stage. He showed the world that he is in fact for real. I could not be more proud of both Grundler brothers this week. Bill for his class and James for his tenacity. I want to thank everyone for their support and encouragement. Onward and upward!
