He then paused for a bit, trying to gain back his composure. And then he continued, “And for that to be the result of all that effort pisses me off. Pisses a lot of guys off. It’s hard, knowing what some guys are doing, like I said, just to practice. What they’re putting in their body just to sleep at night, like just so we could be there for each other. And I wish everybody in that room felt the same way about this place. As a leader it pisses me off if I’m being honest, said Carr, who was by now clearly in tears.
