None of us thought back in the 1980s that this effort to reposition pork would become the one of the most recognized advertising campaigns in America.

The 2006 budget is built on the assumption that NPB will collect $52 million.

One of the first acts from the Pork Board was to approve funding for this in 1986. No one knew that it would become one of the five most recognized tag lines in advertising history.

I thought Matt gave us a huge lift off the bench. It is great to have that type of effort off the bench. That is extremely important to the team. The kids battled tonight.

I thought our guys came out and gave a good effort defensively tonight. These guys were playing great coming in and to hold them to 36 percent (shooting) is a good thing.

We just didn't execute down the stretch. I thought we got the shots we wanted. I liked our effort.
