Chariho is very strong. It beat Westerly in the Injury Fund. So, we know Chariho is somebody that we've got to be ready for. We're just going to keep building and keep working hard. We're going into a good strong workout week and be ready for that Monday. |
Coach always tells us on any given night, anyone can step up, anyone can play well. Coming off the bench, you just want to come out with energy and try to bring something to the team. |
I knew I was going to get it. |
I think this was a great confidence booster for all of them. They all seemed very happy. I could tell that they were all pleased with their races today. |
I was very, very pleased. It was better than what I expected. I knew that my front two runners (Johnson and Griffith) would have a chance finishing one and two. For my team to have runners coming in one, two, three and four was more than I could hope for. So, I was very, very pleased with everybody's effort. |
Obviously you have to be willing to be self-disciplined and prepared to suffer, |
PG&E has been paying out tremendous amounts of dollars for power costs to out of state generators and we have undercollected over seven -- nearly seven -- billion dollars compared to what our ratepayers are paying. And for our financial survival, we need simply to be able to finance the costs of that power, |
We are proud to call these people our friends |
We believe that the wholesale power market is broken. Out- of-state generators are charging us outrageous prices. We don't make a profit on the power we buy from out-of-state generators. We are basically paying out 15, 18, 40 cents a kilowatt hour and we're only allowed to collect about a nickel from our customers. |
We wanted to make sure we're not compromised by a trade agreement. We're not at the table. |
We're hopeful that the PUC will recognize that PG&E needs help in order to continue providing service to our customers and will provide some increase in rates that will send a message to the capital markets, allow us to continue borrowing, allow us to collect enough cash in order to continue the service that our customers need, |
We've been working really hard, ... The workouts have been tough, the miles have been up there, and I think that pays off. |
