It's a series of games, that's all it is, and those other games don't count.
It's a tight schedule. Supplies are tight and labor's tight down here, and we're just trying to do the best we can, and 1 June is our goal.
It's at an all-time high and we are hitting uncharted waters.
It's a bad surprise for the market when things like the U.K. pop out of the blue.
It's a 12-month sport. It gives coaches a chance to see younger kids that would otherwise be overshadowed.
It's 2006. Wake up. We have women fighting on our front lines in Iraq. I think they can be in a baseball clubhouse. My wife is in law school. Imagine that. Women can be lawyers, too.
I try to volunteer as much as I can during the week, even if it means weekends. I take giving back to the community very seriously.
I took one step behind the register where the wall was at. When I picked up my other foot, one of the cinder blocks hit me in the back with tremendous force and knocked me to my knees into the praying position.
I took my daughter to school, had breakfast with my dad and when I got to the farm a reporter called to ask a couple more questions and then asked how I got back from L.A. so fast.
I try to get it in there when I can, ... When they come back from Hawaii, maybe they'll swing through Gainesville.
It wasn't right to go on that year.
It wasn't pretty with all the turnovers. But with two defenses like that, it's bound to get ugly at times. Give credit to the offenses, too, because they were able to make a few plays and score some points.
It wasn't exactly what I suspected. But you can't complain. You've got to just be happy that you're in, get to work, try to win some games.
It was certainly an aim of mine to gain a bit of size and conditioning but I'll see how I go (carrying the extra weight) in a game situation this weekend.
