I told (her), obviously jokingly, that if she didn't put my sister on the team I'd quit. I think it's easier for us to play together because we can yell at each other and not get upset about it.

It was kind of hard for us to have Collins in the first game because they have pretty much the same team back from last year so it was easier for them to mesh together. I think we have gotten a lot closer over the last few games, so it will be interesting the next time we play them.

It's been fun playing on the same team together. I know my dad has always wanted two of his kids to play on the same team, so I think we are kind of living out a dream for him.

We played every day, like five times a day back there. We probably had to repair it like 500 times. Our parents would get so mad.

Conservatives, they're like the Republicans to me. They don't do much. They have this whole hierarchy and boys' club thing going on. That doesn't help the regular person.

I can't stand quitters. My mother is a very strong, determined woman. I was peeling onions when I was seven, but I walked off when my eyes began to sting. She said to me, 'You start something and you finish it', and that stuck with me. I'm persistent.
