People that really respond to it are the ones who move here from out of town. They're really amazed by the facilities that we have. And when our kids travel out of town, they're always really amazed with how nice our facilities are compared to others.

A lot of people have said they feel like we should have had a game tonight. But the good thing about not having a game is that everybody leaves here a winner this evening.

This is what we live for. It's the biggest time of the year for us.

That's sort of when the place improved. It was a beautiful park, but an average Little League field at best. But it went to another level after Floyd came through here.

Steve was more of an NFL-type coach and let a lot of things go. Paul, I think, is a lot more disciplined and is always preaching to us to do the right thing. I think we've become more disciplined as a team. It showed last year when we led the league with the fewest penalties. We've really buckled down. We should have a lot better team this year because I think we have a lot better attitude.

We went 3-8 my first year and 1-9 my second year. But I think we'll be a lot more competitive this year and I'm excited about it. We have a lot of new guys coming in and transfers. The one good thing was that a lot of younger guys got to play last year. We really only lost one player on offense and one on defense. Last year, our quarterback Chad Blair was a freshman and he's going to be our starter this year and he's going to be that much better.
