Eryn is very intelligent and knows the game. We also have a good group of young pitchers.

It was kind of an eye-opener for our young team and how we need to play.

We're going to be hard to beat. From what I've seen so far, our leadership has been outstanding.

As a team we felt like we should have won the game in regulation. We took that feeling into the overtime and were just glad we still had a chance to win it.

And in the end, we were all just humans, drunk on the idea that love, only love, could heal our brokenness.

I think it is very difficult today to have a reasoned public discourse on any controversial subject. Certainly, election years present a complicating factor.
