against birmingham break compete conference crowd meet mistake schedule
Our conference championship in Birmingham had the big crowd and it had all the pressure. Make no mistake about it, the meet schedule we have to compete between each other has made each other better. Some teams, you go up against twice, so there's not much break in your schedule.

dinner downtown felt friends-or-friendship guess matter party people prefer type urge whether
I guess I made friends with people who were not too much the party type. But I was never the type of person who would like to party too much. I never felt the urge to do that, I much prefer going downtown for a dinner or a movie. So it didn't matter whether I was younger.

I have gained back much more than what I lost in Katrina.
