Adams, Captain, As a leader voted as such by his teammates, if he didn't already in that locker room, needs to stand up and address the team. "Boys, TEAMMATES..., We, The D, were playing our guts out into that 4th Qtr., and I lost my head. I succumbed to the prevailing culture of "selfie" Classless behavior, that IS Selfishness, and so, in a game that demands reliance upon one another, and so Respect for one another, I, through my selfishness, disrespected you all, my Teammates. We had a fighting chance to come back and win that game. Our offense had life and effort enough to work their way down the field and answer our opponents score. Our field goal kicker and so our FG team, came through with a personal best and now it was our job to hold them....And we did..., we fought..., until I, your captain, thought only of myself, and for that, I apologize to you all. We win as a Team, and so we lose as a Team, but I take this upon myself. There is no other Locker Room, no Team, no Fellow Warriors..., that I would rather be part of than this one..., right here..., right now, no matter how difficult this moment may be, and is...., as it should be, for it is a shame I brought upon myself, and so I promise you all, My Teammates, I will never again disrespect the Confidence and so Honor..., that you gifted me by voting #22 one of your Captains. I Learned and will Not forget, I'm Proud of You All.... Let us, our Team, go back to the work we love and respect on Monday, It is a privilege, Thankyou."
