Actually, we came out and hit the ball better than I expected. We came out strong and ready to go. They made some great plays, but we put some pop on the ball and made them play us a little more straight up. |
Brittany is a tremendous asset on and off the field. She brings such passion and excitement to the team. Having her be so unselfish and put the surgery off for the team... the others just feed off of that. |
Considering his age, he's not at the point where he cannot be rehabilitated. He's functioning well below his age in every area. Juvenile justice would offer him more structure. |
Eye for an eye is what it should be. |
He seemed extraordinarily strong, and not for even one minute did we think he was not going to make it. |
I thought the worst of the worst. And you don't think it selfishly. I just know how important softball is to Brittany and after missing last season, I knew how painful it would be for her. |
It is a hard thing to want to come back and play after something like that. Everyone was just really concerned for her. It was so emotional. It was just tough to finish that game, let alone come back and play another. |
Our family's outcome is better than the increasingly-heart-breaking losses experienced by many families. |
Phenomenal. Ashley gets in a zone out there. She gets focused and if (the umpire) is going to give her the corners, which is the way it should be, it really makes her tough to hit. |
That bomb they hit may have hurt them more than it helped them. Ashley just takes things like that personally. When she gave up the home run, you just knew she was going to come back and do whatever she could to help the team. |
Valentine's Day gift giving can put a great deal of stress on singles. Many people feel like the gift signifies something about the relationship and where it's going. Take the pressure off this year and go for something creative, such as a favorite new DVD, a great bottle of wine or a seductive dinner by candlelight. |
What I've looked for all year is the mental part. When you start making those mental mistakes, you're done. |
When the big-screen TV hit the thousands last year, everybody was paying attention. I don?t think ?intense? is the right word, but it had everyone?s attention. The auction benefits the YMCA, and people can get a top-quality item. It?s a win-win situation for everyone. |
