TI entered the set-top box market twice before and then, both times, withdrew when the business was not as good as they thought. Customers are going to want to have confidence that TI is going to be successful before they make a commitment.
baseball break finish great helps morning opportunity player practice routine season similar spring team
I don't think I've ever had a spring break without baseball being involved. It's a great opportunity to practice in the morning and play in the afternoon. It is very similar to the routine a professional player would have, and many times it helps your team finish the season strong.
ball came hard late playing second strong
Burlington just came out really hard in the first quarter. We were playing pretty strong in the second half, but it was too late and we couldn't get the ball to the cage.
appears cadillac led love taken zeppelin
So many things for me are unfortunate in the commercialization of something that is special. It's like when Led Zeppelin appears in Cadillac commercials. There's something that is taken away from your love of this thing and your connection to it.
