We were very surprised and pleased that they'd even consider doing something for us. It will be nice to have a nice place for the children to go, and the clothes will be displayed nicely.

Every parent who has come through here has wonderful feelings about it. And the kids like being able to shop. It's free and it's cool, because they can walk out with bags of clothes.

We need nice clothes. When these kids are moving around, it's nicer to have luggage than carry their stuff around in paper bags. It's not something people think about donating.

We had a lot of fight in us, but we're struggling. We're in a groove and we have to get out of it, and we're not playing as well as we have or as we can. We have some young kids who are not ready to play with the big dogs, and Central is clearly a well-coached team with a ton of talent that has the confidence we would want to attain in the next couple of weeks.

Hopefully, it (situational batting) will be something we'll be able to utilize when we really need it.

If all the Chinese men who claimed to be US-born actually were, it meant every woman in Chinatown would have to have had 800 sons. That gives you an idea what was going on.
