[Buffnik]

not today. but, i'd like to think that having Boyle in the locker-room and sidelines having been there, done that might take some of the "aura" off Allen....so, we don't get down 19 in the first ten minutes as we've done some in the past. maybe make us a little more competitive and mentally in the game. sound good?
