We understand that any small thing like that needed to be seriously looked into. It was handled the right way.

I guess I'm not really sure what I'd change about it. Obviously it didn't fall. It was probably the first open shot I had all night. So, I mean, some go down, some don't. It was obviously a huge shot.

I got the shot we wanted. It just wouldn't go down.
