We practiced hard all week. We finally got it together. We finally came together as a unit today. We swarmed to the ball, all 11 hats to the ball.

It's a high-low. Yeah, we played a close game against an undefeated team. But we lost another game.

We had it in the palm of our hands, and we let it slip away. It's heartbreaking, but there is an upside. This was the best football we've played all season.

Despair has been your lot for 60 years, ... but today we can say farewell with courage and with the knowledge that the fate of our fellow citizens has finally been discovered.

The intensity was good and we knew our assignments today. Sometimes, we're still a little inconsistent. We've still got some plays that should have been made, a few dropped passes, a few missed assignments up front and protection wasn't always that good. But, overall, we did well. John Parker said he felt comfortable back there in the pocket. That's always a plus for us.

Whether you're managing the finances for a household of one, a business of a thousand, or a government of several hundred million, there's no more important statement of fiscal intent you can make than putting together a responsible budget - one that acknowledges its available means, and makes a reasonable attempt to live within them.
