I wouldn't expect him to be back before the All-Star break. The infection he's got is pretty tough to get rid of and because he already had one replacement there's no blood flow in that area so it's hard to knock it out.

Brad Blew

When it came time for our kids to play to win, we came through and did a good job. We've won a lot of games at the line and we feel that's one of our strengths. When we can get the lead and put it in deep freeze late, we feel good about our chances.

David Hall

When it came down to it, I won the points that mattered,

Phyllis Nagy

When I was a kid in a small private school on Long Island and this event occurred, we were all fascinated. For years, I've been wondering what to do with the material. I think it should be an opera. They're all so operatic and passionate in their personalities.

Tom told me this wonderful story about how Ernie and his wife invited Tom and his wife over in Florida one time for a dish of ice cream. Who in this day invites you over for a dish of ice cream. Just wonderful.
