We've practiced for over three weeks. We finally got our feet wet.

Mitch has been out for a week and has had mono for three weeks. He practiced (Wednesday) for the first time in over a week. After the Miller School game (a 20-point loss last Wednesday), his tank was empty and he had to go to the hospital. He came out (tonight) and played his heart out. He's the glue that holds the team together.

Get your feet wet

In all likelihood, he'll miss three weeks.

I stepped in the hallway and my feet got wet.

When you have three weeks to prepare, you draw some things up in the dirt. Unfortunately, in the end, they were just better than we were.
