Ally Carter

I love being a pavement artist; seriously, I do. It's like when guys who would normally hate being freakishly tall discover basketball, or when girls with abnormally long fingers sit down at a piano.

This is something we've been working for the past three years. We've gotten beat on a buzzer-beater the last two years (50-49 loss to Johnstown in a Division III district final two years ago, 54-53 loss to Bloom-Carroll in a Division III district final last year), so we're working hard to make sure that doesn't happen again.

Channing Frye

The way this season has gone, ... who knows who the team to beat is now?

Bill Wallace

That's in my opinion the best team in the league and we can play right with them. They have a senior pitcher, six or seven seniors, but we'll be okay. I hope we'll be in it, but I think they are the team to beat right now.

When the person comes to the door, I'm gone, but you know what I've left on the porch? A jack-o-lantern with a knife stuck in the side of it's head with a note that says "You." After that I usually feel a lot better, and no harm done.

Certainly political capital-slash-celebrity attention, whatever you want to call it, certainly is part of the reason why I've been reaching out to CEOs.

It hurts me, it hurts them. It was my responsibility to get this team ready for this game, and I didn't do that.
