We've had a lot of rain up at our place, so it's great to see some sunshine. Coming down here is like a vacation and playing baseball. It's two things that we love.
We know each other pretty well because the juniors and current seniors have been playing together since the fourth grade. We've grown to rely on one another which is why we're so balanced and have such good team chemistry. We count on each other because if one is struggling, another is right there to help them out.
You can best teach character on the playing field, using sports to teach life lessons,
Clinton playing the sax -- that's the gold standard. Number one -- because very few candidates had made such appearances before and -- number two -- because he did it on Arsenio Hall, which was kind of a cool, late night thing at the time. But most importantly, he played the sax. That would even be unusual today.
(Ballard) is a team that can make us better later on by playing against it. We can use this game to play with quicker, more athletic teams and I'm really proud of our seniors for challenging the other players to play hard the whole game.
You can't expect too much from the players, really. We started well and we had a good first quarter, but the little bits in between, we looked like we were a side that was playing their first game.

We've just got to wait and see what happens with his body, and it's certainly been a big week for him, it's been a big week in the media.
We would love to put (a trophy) in there. We played off for one a couple years ago. We played reasonable footy but we lost the game. We didn't handle the loss well.
This whole thing is like a cross between a very severe virus and getting married.
the recipe keeps changing, which is actually what other TV shows have never really accomplished.
We need to do an environmental impact statement.
We believe that $30,000 is blood money. Paula Rader should not receive a financial windfall based on the death of these individuals.
