bit call hopefully improve kids learn nervous played scared season timid
It was a little too much Blaine Howell and a little too much A.C. Reynolds tonight. We played a little bit timid or nervous or scared or what you want to call it.

fortunate guys helps kids pro sudden watch work younger
That's one thing we've been really fortunate with. Our kids have been around the pro scouts. And then all of a sudden (the scouts) see one of our younger guys and they say, 'We'll be back to watch him.' It just helps all of our kids. And a lot of pro guys help with recommendations to colleges. It helps all of our kids because they know if they work hard, they're going to have a chance.

There are quite a lot of people in the city who are beaten down. Just to have this infusion of young, energetic, positive people has been a shot in the arm.

We're taking this very seriously. We're fully aware that it's a massive place in a big market. We want to do very well. We believe we can do very well here.
absolutely defeating effort media panic people reporting worst
Unfortunately, some of the media started reporting that there would be shortages. This was absolutely the worst thing that could happen. What we need was for people to get just what they needed, then there is enough for emergencies. The panic is defeating the conservation effort that should be in place.
election giving opinion permanent regard until
We're not giving any opinion with regard to what's going on there. We don't know if replacements are permanent or temporary. We don't look into that until after the election occurs, if the election is challenged.
