Question: Jeff, how do you psych yourself up before a game? Do you
have any pre-game routines?
My pre-game routine changes so much because if I'm playing
well, I'll keep doing the same thing but as soon as I stop I'll try
something different. But it usually revolves around music - I'm
somehow drifting into an 80's - 90's rock mentality so I listen to
a lot of Metallica. I'm starting to outdate myself just by saying
Metallica. That's amazing to think of because I remember some of
the older guys listening to their music and thinking they were old
fashioned - now I'm turning into an old guy! Well, it happens.
Usually, I like to find 15 quiet minutes where I listen to music
by myself and go over the game that way; and then get back into
hanging out with the guys.
