After spending most of today in transition from Frankfurt to Innsbruck we are now settled in to our new ‘home’. The travel went smooth and our hotel in Innsbruck- The Grauer Bär is very comfortable and right in the middle of Innsbruck. Not sure yet if that is a good thing or a bad thing. ;)

I want to give a big thanks  to our team guide, Heidi, from local organizing committee.  She was very helpful upon arrival and made things much easier for us. Team USA is also staying at this hotel which might make things a little interesting within the next couple days.

Once we got settled in, we headed off to a short practiced where we polished off our preparations for Mexico for tomorrow. I really believe the team is ready and looked really sharp and focused today.

Most of our minor pains and injuries from training camp are for the most part healed and the guys seem ready the challenge at hand. The four Cowboys, Albert, Jerome, Georg, and Gary have done really well and I expect a lot out of each of them. I am a very proud coach to watch these guys play at the level they are doing…….but now it’s almost GAMEDAY and its time to get it done when it counts the most!

cheers,

Phil
