We grew up on a ranch in North Dakota. Paige was really good at breaking horses. But one day this horse took off up a hill, and then it came charging down the hill bucking.

He was so mad, he chased me around the ranch all day, but he never caught me. Now that he's here, I am so proud, and I know we'll help each other all the time.

We're fighting for a playoff spot. We're fighting to keep a winning season. We've had seven consecutive years of .500 or better. I remember in 2000 that was our third straight winning season.
