Both guys are getting better at it.

It's been a long 10, 11 days. Myself and a lot of the guys were anxious to get here to Milwaukee, get the games going. We've been practicing all week and are excited to get going (tonight). We want to feed off the fans in the building and play hockey.

You know, I was up there racing with those guys at Chicago, and they're just going to have to tolerate it. I'm just like them -- just trying to win a race or two here ... who knows, maybe that was somebody getting aggravated at me being up there with them, I don't know.

It's a basic life choice I've been trying to make for five years. I hope I've finally made it.

That was the difference. We had runners at second and third with nobody out and didn't score. We just came off spring break and our girls were flat.

There are a lot of strains on the infrastructure, our roads, our schools, and I think that sometimes the problems haven't been anticipated.
