Ed Nottle People Quotations

People here fell in love with the ballpark, and the facility became a meeting place first, and then they started following the ballclub as they got to know some of the players,

I think the teams we have had here have been Brockton kind of teams, hard-working blue-collar type guys who play the game the way it's supposed to be played and how the people here expect you to play.

We came in as the new kid on the block in the City of Champions, and the people here embraced us from the start,

Essentially, we came in here as a new business, and people accepted us, and one reason is because we visited the schools, visited the hospitals, went to openings, all of those things. We were out in the community, people saw us and accepted us as part of the community.

This is a blue-collar city with people who work hard for their money and are really down to earth,

I'm a neighborhood-bar kind of guy, anyway. I'd just as soon have a hamburger and fries as have a steak or a fancy meal. I like to be around people I consider my friends, and I've made a lot of friends in my four years here.
