It appears that FEMA may have purchased manufactured and modular homes in excess... and is now paying to store and maintain them.

I think it's a tremendous accomplishment, considering how we started. There was a little bit of concern about that.

It increases our chances of succeeding. To play four straight days against this level of competition and expect to win, I think, is impossible. To do it three straight days is tough.

academic best great limit playing served side time travel
Here we are playing great basketball, and you'd think they'd take these things into consideration. From an academic standpoint, it has not served us very well.

It had nothing to do with the game. It was a well-played game. It wasn't even a distraction for either team. Maybe the fans and everybody else got excited.

I watch the All-Star game every year. It's a fun game and I want to see what the guys are doing. I like to see my friends who are in the game and see how well they do.
