I grew up in San Diego in a non-athletic environment. My parents were not interested in sports. Their loves were art, literature and music. I gravitated towards sports because of my older brother Bruce and the first coach I ever had, who, like John Wooden, made it fun and really emphasized the joy of playing the team game.

They can beat San Antonio. There's nothing wrong with the Mavericks.
Currently, the green crab is viewed only as a pest species, ... The crab tends to eat what we eat. It's incredibly tough. And generally speaking, its presence in the water means fewer clams and lobsters. So, we'd like to turn around these negatives and make them into a positive.
Everybody knew we were capable of playing better. I'm so proud of our kids. I can't say enough about their resolve.
As our business was growing, when we took over the shop, our plan to start paying the taxes didn't work. We didn't get up to where we were making enough money to afford the taxes.
