It's one thing to save $50 million in salary and maybe forfeit a season. For a guy as competitive as Mr. Loria, it's almost impossible for me to think he would just concede for the foreseeable future.

He's never been one to micromanage. Yet he's about as competitive a guy as I've seen.

This is their dream so maybe they go one less place or maybe do one less thing they are still going to own that coach they've been dreaming about it for a while and for the folks in the million plus category its such a small part of their over all budget it doesn't impact them too much.

We gave away one forfeit (heavyweight) and we knew that we had to make up for that. We did and at this point the league title is ours to lose.

We only returned one starter this season so our goal all year was just to make the regional. But we're also not going into this scared. We've been there before.

a very competitive season for parents' dollars.
