I think Brian learned a valuable lesson last week. He was frustrated and I told him, 'They're going to make us beat them by throwing the football, so you need to take that as a compliment.' That doesn't mean you surrender. You keep playing because it's going to be a game where you earn every one of your yards.

It again shows the people in school, particularly the people in the Baldwin schools, are caring, loving, concerned people, ... If there is a need here or anywhere else around the world, I think our community will find a way to help those in need.

It brings back the old days when you could get out and walk around downtown. It's really beautiful.
It became, after the first few days, a recovery effort.
I think it's a really good thing. They're always doing blood drives for people, but I've never heard of one for dogs.
