Mark Berry Quotations

He's a no-nonsense guy. He knows what's going on in baseball. He wanted to get what we thought about the players.

That's the best I've seen him swing in the spring in four or five years. That's one quick bat.

It was amazing how those guys lit up when he came in the room. One guy couldn't believe it was the same Ken Griffey he saw on TV.

When we were leaving, Jerry (Narron) said, 'You're going to come to Cincinnati and see us play next year,' ... He moved his thumb. His mother said that means 'OK.' I got pretty choked up. Jerry did, too.

We thought it was rich in the $38.50 range. So we are a bit surprised by this nosebleed pricing.

That's a level where we just scratch our heads.

And really, it hasn't hurt our CD sales. People out there look at the price of a download in a different way. This is disposable music. It's a way for them to sample something without making a large investment. They'll pay the 99 cents for one cut and either decide to try the whole album or not. If they like it, they'll maybe go out and purchase the CD.

We've been trying to find a site. That's our biggest challenge. We did a survey a couple of years ago and the feedback we got was that this is definitely something the kids want. I continue to get phone calls asking what's happening with the skate park. There's definitely an interest.

The Morgan Stanley bid being a dime higher I thought was almost laughable.
