Just look at this watch someone gave to me.

I'm awed and impressed by the generosity of this city. We have been treated better here than in Chicago. This community cares for its people. They've taken us in like family, and we're very grateful.

One couple drove all the way from Morris on Christmas to bring us gifts.

This boost will help us get back on our feet. This is a great city filled with good people who care.

We caravan wherever we go. We try to get four or five drivers. Sometimes it gets messy especially when we show up to games late.

It shows the kind of bullpen that we have. I hope we go out there and do it again this year.
