The competition is really lining up right now, trying to take a shot.

Bradley has done a good job and he's earned the right to play, ... That doesn't mean there's not competition there. We'd like to get Pete Towne some time too.

There may be some strict conditions on the merger, but nothing that's going to make anyone rethink the logic of putting these two companies together. It will be a great combination.

He's a sponge right now. He's just trying to take everything in, and that's unbelievable for a young guy that's had all the accolades he's had up to this point. It'd be pretty easy for him to go the other way, but he's not. He's such a great kid.

If it's the right fit, I'll know. I'm not trying to be evasive. That's the truth.

It's been a real challenge this year trying to find what buttons to push at the right time. I think we're ready. This is a winner-take-all situation, so if you have an off night, your season is over.
