I did. I'm sorry to hear they've been caught up in the pressure.

I'd take the money, thank God, and keep my aim where it was to start. Eight phone calls on Sunday filled with promises and freebee's can change one's mind.

they had no aim after the derby. they didn't expect to win, so i'm not surprised there was no plan in place to go to md. then they won. they're as shocked as everyone i'd imagine.
