I don't think I've ever used the word grind, but I've found myself using that word a lot to describe this season. There was just never a time to relax this season. There was not one second to relax. But that's the sign of a great league.

Billy (Donovan) has done an incredible job getting this group together. I think what we all see in them this year is an outstanding team. They just really play off each other.
