‘I love all of you guys and I appreciate you coming. This year, I really believe we’re going to win the league.’
He added: ‘The girlfriends, the wives, all of the friends that came, you guys are even more special. I see the smile that everyone comes in with. I am incredibly grateful for you as well.
