It kind of made me realize that catching wasn't just about sitting back there and having fun. Ever since then, I've loved it and I hope somebody tries to come in and truck me.

I've got to say it's been a lot of fun to do, and in a way it really has been a protection. Honestly, I think otherwise I'd have stopped reading newspapers, magazines, books and would have had to go and hide on a remote island until December 1999. When, of course, the jumbo jets would have arrived and I'd have had to flee.

It's going to be a fun contrast of two very different styles. They want to push everything up and down and we want to get into a half-court game. (Willard) has a great team and we have some great competitors.

We had a great group of guys, and it was a lot of fun going over there. And to win, there is nothing better than that. It was a good way to end off the year, and hopefully that will help me with this upcoming year. Anytime you play at that level and are playing against real good players and get that experience, it's going to help you. Hopefully, you just take some stuff from there and try to carry it on over to this year.

We have to have fun in everything we do or they're not going to come in the door. With the sex education and drug and alcohol prevention being such a key thing, we want to make sure everybody has the information.

We're definitely interested in adding stores. We're looking for opportunities to add convenient, unique and fun shopping experiences where we see demand for our products.
