We’re at a stage right now where, it’s not because of where we’re at and lost the other night, these guys have been trying to put everything on the line to play. Right not, they’re not even at 50 or 60 percent. That’s why we had to make a move and bring in some other guys, some fresh legs, and hopefully that gives us a little bit of a spark.”
