We went into a period there where we could not hit the broad side of a barn. We knew we had to shoot the ball well, since they are so much bigger than us, we knew we would not rebound.
We were down early in the doubles point because we are used to them being aggressive and coming to the net, but today they were staying back and lobbing the ball more. So we were the ones who had to be aggressive in order to get the win.
We did everything we were suppose to do but put the ball in the hole.
We shot the ball for about an hour and a half after school today; it's a good thing we did.
I think the kids were more relaxed and they had a chance to time him. We've been working hard on keeping the ball down. Last week we were hitting a lot of pop ups and tonight we hit more line drives.
They're just staying back on the ball and hitting to all fields. I had a lot of these guys in summer ball growing up, and that's the way they've always done it.
We weren't prepared to take the risk last week with David Johnson, in saying that he's had about two weeks of really solid training where we've really given him a huge amount of work, tried to put match conditioning into him to see if we got through last week, and we have to wait and see whether we choose to play him this week.
We were planning to build another hangar, but the cost of building materials has gone through the roof.
We lose sight of the fact that this is a lawsuit under specific statutes, and that certain activities have to constitute a violation under those statutes.
We underestimated what kind of acting chops this guy had, and we now see what he's able to do when he's given the right part. He's taken his considerable acting experience, melded that with his own kind of personality, melded that with the almost mythic history he brings to the part.
We hung in there and played our hearts out. But we were too short-handed without Devin.
The study shows that there are clear features in brain images that are different for smart children versus average children. Now it should become extremely fast to identify some of the main factors that make the brain develop in a healthy way...such as how kids are taught, their diet, their parental upbringing, or...genetics.
I sense a little change, ... I hear it every day. 'We got to do something different, because the other way hasn't been working.'
I've been to China. There's a lot of people over there.
