People watch four or five hours of coverage of a very sad story. Humor has always been a way to smooth that over. It's one of the ways you can process things.

Linebackers can have an impact on teams and you can name four or five in the league that are clearly players that opposing teams have to watch out for.

I think five dollars is a modest amount and an overall benefit for the campus community is definitely worth this mild contribution.

Even a late starter can do $5,000 a year. In five years, he or she can have a decent balance.

That is probably the best starting five in the state. There are no weak ball players, and they don't have a lot of weaknesses as a team.
