Medicare would just become for old, sick people at the end of life. And I don't think that's a good system ... I don't think that's the way I want to treat seniors in this country.
Medicare premium increases are unaffordable for many seniors as they struggle to keep up with the high cost of prescription drugs, record gas prices and their daily expenses.
Medicare is committed to helping seniors enroll in the plan that is best for them. We have people here today to answer questions, but more importantly, we have thousands of operators standing by 24 hours a day, seven days a week to answer questions.
My freshman year, we all sat and watched as the seniors fought for a sectional championship but didn't get it. We knew any of those games last week could be our last game, so we gave it everything we had.
My focus as a coach is to keep my seven seniors focused.
Nobody expected us to be good this year. We had some serious talent on last year's team, and some of those seniors never left the field.
We have a saying: The way you practice is the way you play. Guys who don't play much, practice is their game. Seniors can make it real difficult if they're not playing. We've been very lucky our seniors have been able to handle that.
We have a saying in sports. It is not whether you fall down that counts, it is whether you get back up. All three of those seniors have that kind of mentality.
We have a number of seniors on the team, some who didn't get a lot of experience last year. And, I believe we're a lot better than our 12-12 record would indicate.
We suggested they only count kids who started as a freshman at the school and stayed until they were seniors to graduate.
