Most contracts should be easy to understand and written at an eighth grade level.
against basis coaches eight fastest finals kids running strictly understand
You don't like to do that, because you like to set your finals on the basis of qualifying so your eight fastest kids will be running head-to-head (instead of strictly against the clock), but coaches understand that some things just have to be done.

Over the two years John was receiving the research and the data, we were actively engaged in a dialogue about the future of the league. I think what John brought to the table was the difference maker.

commitment expected given indication natural people talked whether wonder
I think it's only natural for people to wonder if Brett will be there. But he hasn't given us any indication and hasn't made a commitment to be there. I know it's been talked about around town, whether he'll be there or not. But he's not expected and we're not anticipating that he will.
good holding job
I think defensively we did a good job holding Mansfield to 48 points. That's big for us and we need to do the same thing for Monterey.

I think she settled into the game. She relaxed a little bit. She took better shots going to the basket. She settled for some 8-10-footers in the first half, shooting over the big girl. In the second half, she was getting closer to the basket.
committed connection culture field football great hockey means people responding solid
I think part of what people are responding to with Lambeau Field is that it's a solid culture. There's so much committed to what hockey means and that's how we feel about football. It's just a great connection between the culture of football and the culture of hockey.
behind half took win wins won
I would say that we won when we had to win and did what it took to win (in the first half of district). I wouldn't say our wins were pretty, but we have to put that behind us.
