assertive averaged bumps certainly direction divergent ensure excel excitement experience fans games improved lead listened managers mistakes order overall past provided purchased responsibility road season since stronger views winning year
I have certainly made mistakes in the past by not being more assertive when bumps in the road appeared. Larry, Theo and other managers in the organization do not need me in order to excel at what they do, but I have a responsibility to ensure that divergent views and our overall direction lead to a better and stronger organization. We've averaged winning more than 95 games a year since we purchased the club. We've listened to the fans and improved the fan experience greatly. We have provided excitement during the season as well as the off-season.

Many of them came from our traditionally strong sources of guests. If people used to live in Chicago and always wanted to take a dude ranch vacation, and now they live in Colorado, they're still going to want to take a dude ranch vacation.

Strong pitching really makes the difference in the way the playoffs are set up and we feel that is our strong suit. We are in a very tough playoff, but so is everyone else. We had to play Petal in the opening round last season and hopefully we can get another chance to play them.

among best both course earned field forget forward greatest including memorable ounce red reputation ring series wish
We wish Pedro nothing but the best going forward both on the field and off the field, ... He pitched with every ounce of his being for the Red Sox over the course of 216 games. Some of those performances were among the most memorable in Red Sox history. Who will ever forget the 1999 All-Star game? He has earned everything that he has accomplished, including his World Series ring and his reputation as one of the greatest who ever lived.

We are bringing through some outstanding youngsters and the character they showed to get us through to the League Cup semi-finals at Doncaster gave us a real lift for the Christmas matches and I think we took that into the matches against Charlton and Portsmouth.
