I'm not such a nuisance to the world, and the kick I get out of living can, I suppose, justify the impositions I make on it. But when life isn't so fun, well, then I start to wonder. What's the point of going on if it's just trouble for us both? My friends will miss me, I am told.

We're just using them out there and it's helping us score points.

We utilized the center channel to present the kick drum, snare and bass guitar tracks, as well as singer Greg Graffin's lead vocals, ... Unlike a lot of modern music mixes for 5.1, the center channel was our anchor. This mix is more akin to a 5.1 feature film mix. By mixing in the Rick Chace Theater we had the opportunity to experience the entire concert in a THX-certified dubbing stage and in a room we know, love and trust.

They want returns as part of the game for the excitement.

United is thrilled to be able to come out to Payne Elementary to kick off the start of our fourth season of United Reads.

Would we rather have been in a situation where we didn't have to call timeout by having the best block team that we could on the field? Absolutely, but that wasn't the case, ...

We were trying to kick the bag out of each other. Ryan doesn't believe me when I tell him this, but he is so unbelievably strong. If he had gone as hard as he could have for the last two laps he would have won no question. But when you try and play McCormack's game he's going to lose, because Mark already has 150 finished just like that in his brain.

There are four or five plays every game that will determine the outcome, and those plays are (usually) special teams.

We've come to understand the importance of special teams.
