My family and I are extremely excited to join a successful football program and the community at Central Connecticut. I am familiar with the football program having faced Central Connecticut in each of the last two seasons, and I know that this team can continue to play football at a high level.

It was fun watching kids play. It was really positive to have the kids have fun today, because football is drudgery. It?s hot and you get hurt... We tried to create some atmosphere. We want to create school spirit. We have a great school and it was a wonderful crowd.

The Beefeaters are an important part of the football family in the community. If everyone's healthy, we're all healthy. It's really good for all the members to be functioning well. It's a healthy football environment when there are more and more opportunities to play.

These guys are just the best. The entire Watts family are very big supporters of this community. For any kind of charitable work - you come in and ask, and they immediately get out their checkbooks and write you a check. They are really supportive, and I just hope the community will come together and support them now.

In the game of football, there's a lot of passion involved. To have a young man missing from your family, it makes you look at things with a different mindset. We've raised funds every year, but this year, there's no doubt what our fund-raiser was going to be.

The capacity for friendship is God's way of apologizing for our families.
