Keeping the mood light

Well it's getting down do the end of the week when most people start to settle down a little and have the weekend off. But not us, we have another big weekend, three games in three nights beginning on Friday. It has been a long week of practice for us again and we've been working pretty hard preparing for the weekend. One thing that I believe is important on any team, is being serious and working hard, however, there is a definite need for "keeping the mood light." I want to take a second to let you guys know what we do to help keep spirits up.
It was a rough road trip last weekend and we are around the same guys the whole time. You have to believe that there is some funny business going on. Last weekend a few pranks were pulled that a lot of guys got a good laugh at. We all found it pretty hilarious when one of the guys grabbed a towel after his shower only to find that someone (I won't name names) put some shaving cream on it so when he dried his face it looked like he had a full white beard. And I also must feel bad however, that some guys don't understand English as well as others. One time this past weekend, one guy put tape over a hairspray label. The tape said "deodorant" and needless to say what happened after that when it was used.
As you can understand, road trips get pretty long and its good to "lighten the mood." For the most part we are all pretty laid back guys, and most of the time, when things happen everyone, even the victim, can have a good chuckle.
