Speculation about resignations with the weekend ahead of us has made people a bit crazy about getting a dollar hedge.

If Argentina can make it through the weekend, I see the real steady at around 1.7 or 1.71 per dollar.

Moody's news surely helped turn around sentiment. It gave Brazilian markets a good boost. Dollar futures fell, interest rate futures fell, and C-bonds rose.

People are usually either really serious or they decide to pull out. The rest of us give up every weekend from early February until late April spending every weekend racing at a different college. It's hard to get out of bed sometimes.

We played much better than we did last week. Maybe it was the long weekend we had that gave us some rest. But it won't get any easier for us.

To add players like Murray and Blasdell is great for us. We're like the NFL in that every weekend is a dogfight. Adding experienced players who know what it takes to win is invaluable.
