Matthew King

I wouldn't say I hit the ball well but I scrambled well and putted well and hit some good shots on the back nine and took my chances there, ... I'm feeling good. I would like to feel more comfortable with my tee-to-green game, but it is a nice problem to have.

Ken played fantastic and didn't miss more than five or six balls all the way through.

And it was fun, it was like a party almost.

If you're in an outdoor event, for example let's say a soccer game, and the person next to you is smoking on a normal bleacher and if the wind is blowing in your direction, it's like someone sitting next to you in a restaurant.

Chuck D.

Joey wrestled a great tournament, and we don't want him to get lost in the shuffle. He was solid all weekend.

He used to be a power pitcher, but after shoulder surgery he's had some hard luck.

Joey Cora

He didn't pitch that bad. He threw strikes, and that's the key for him. He didn't get hit hard at all. He just wasn't lucky.

Grief is so human, and it hits everyone at one point or another, at least, in their lives. If you love, you will grieve, and that's just given.
