Every game is a big game in Bisonland now more than ever, just short of 1300 in last Saturday, and now another mad run of fixtures.
So what can we do? We can sit and moan, complain about this, complain about that, put all kinds of comments on forums about the league, the short bench, the owner, the rink, the DJ, the hotdogs...but where will it get us?
The fact of the matter is, we are here, we are in the Final, we maybe on the ropes but I don't know about you but I for one am not willing to just throw in the towel.
My first season with the Bison, I saw another team try to take on the boys in warm up, I saw an old pair of legs come out of retirement and do a top job between the pipes and score a goal, I also saw a Belfast squad with an NHL legend throw his toys out of the pram and a team expecting to collect the League trophy.....Oh and I found myself sitting in Block D halfway through a game!!
The Bison are a collective, it is a crest on a shirt, it is a bunch of lads who can put on the magic, it is a rink with over 71% increase in gate, it is a TEAM in the finals, the odds aren't the best, but the underdog always bites the hardest...sharpen your teeth
Let's fill the place, every damn seat needs a bum on it, can we do it? we can only try, and boy I am trying already....
Are you ready? I am, let's get out there and tell them, just as we have done before......just louder
We have sold over 400 tickets for this weekends game already, if you want your usual seat then get to the box office ASAP..
Don't forget to put the 22nd March in the diary, it is the Fancy Dress/Wigathon I will put my hand in my pocket and sort out some great giveaways for the best/worst dressed...
"Do not wait; the time will never be "just right." Start where you stand, and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along."
