It's a completely different race if we win today. Completely different. |
It's always different than when you see them in a drill, but I hear he's doing a great job. I know the game in Japan is a little different than it is here. But what's great about this game is that it's universal. It doesn't matter which side of the ocean you're on, it's the same game. |
It's amazing what's happened the last 12 years to baseball in Seattle. |
It's clearly important work, ... My question is, is this the best place for it? Will Teen Challenge raise property values ... and (neighborhood) standards? |
It's just nice that they invited me down. It's a chance to see some of the new catchers and young guys and talk to Kenji a little bit. It's been nice. |
It's just nice to be able to go out in the community and help kids, especially. |
It's tough for me to comprehend and take this all in. |
Jason never knew about it (the donation) until today. I have been crying off and on all week about it. I thought it would really go right down to the wire before the deadline of May 30, and maybe someone or some company would step up. But I never dreamed it would happen so fast like this. |
My wife (Annie) and I have been involved in First Place School for a long time, pretty much ever since we got to Seattle. That was the first (charitable) thing we did. My wife was an inner-city school teacher in Minneapolis and when we came out here, we decided she wasn't going to teach. She wanted to get involved in the community in some way. We asked the Mariners and they pointed us in that direction. It has been a great relationship since, a great fit, and we have enjoyed it. |
One of the reasons we really like to work with chefs is, boy, they do a nice job with the food. They are doing such a fine job of introducing that lamb to a lot of people who may have never eaten it. The consumption of lamb in the U.S. is 1 pound per person per year. If you can get it out there in front of people and they taste it and enjoy it, they will start buying it. |
Shoreline habitat is our biggest issue. We see very few small fish in highly developed areas. |
Thanks For The Memories. |
The concern has to do with the problem Macon has with giving resources and support to neighborhoods that it deems are expendable, ... All I wanted was some assurance this had been thought through. |
The people in Milwaukee are wonderful to work with and are excited about the opportunity to have a film shot locally. |
The relationship between my family and the Mariners' family has been amazing. Our relationship is not over, just changing. I look forward to staying involved in some way, shape or form in the years to come. |
