We really have to start planning in January. It is a lot of preparation, but once it's all out here, everybody knows what they're supposed to do. And without those inmates, it would be very difficult to put this all up. They help us out tremendously. |
We rescheduled this game because so many fans and Panthers employees have left the area, and because we want to ensure safe travels into and out of Florida for the teams and the officials, ... We thank the Senators and Panthers for their cooperation. |
We rest here while we can, but we hear the ocean calling in our dreams, And we know by the morning, the wind will fill our sails to test the seams, The calm is on the water and part of us would linger by the shore, For ships are safe in harbor, but t |
We saw how if you put in the effort and become proficient in your sport, you can become like Thomas Jefferson. They are the best team we have played this year. They are the best team in the state. They are one of the top three in Class 1 and Class 2. |
We saw products in use that were pretty impressive. There was a lot of new stuff on the presence-management side, and Cisco should be able to tie these things together better than a lot of other companies could because of their comprehensive systems. |

We speak about it this way: We're taking this vessel, so to speak, out of its pier, and the destination is the other continent, which is the world title. The journey isn't going to take a week or a month, but we've got to be committed to the journey. |
We speak French all the time, out on the field sometimes, but not when anyone else is around. We decided that we could speak French during games. I wouldn't even have to go to the mound, I'll just yell to him in French, no one will know what we said. |
We spent so much time practicing and rehearsing. We know that practice makes perfect. Although we had experience in going to the competition, this year was different, because we took more girls with us and we entered more events. It was a lot of fun. |
We still could have got it done, ... It just wasn't our turn. It just wasn't meant to be. Now you just have to live with that. Like I said, the thing that happened last year is only going to make us stronger. The great Pat Riley has made us stronger. |
