But that has nothing to do with... well, I guess it does. That is the reason that I did come back.
They spent the No. 2 pick on him for a reason.

Lunch or dinner? Well, I'm at work, so it'll have to be dinner. I have a job now.
I tell people I was a caterpillar locked in a cocoon when I was in New Orleans, but now I feel like I finally have my wings.
