They will not be the best possible Games but will be much better than they could have been.

I am proud of my kids, hanging in there and we have won two league games in a row; it is very hard to win two in a row in this league. We are looking forward to a couple of days off and getting back to work against Western Kentucky who is the top dog in our division.

I like to think that people who really know me understand I am the same person - and that is something I will always fight to maintain. Obviously the money is there, but I want to stay the same. At the same time, I want my son to enjoy what I didn't have. My father-in-law often looks at all the toys and games Benjamin has.

We came down with high expectations, but he's had a great month and a half. He's not just happy to be here, he's upset. When kids are long and lanky, you can find yourself tied up in ways you're not used to. That was a tough one to lose.

The MIT was a wake-up call for him. He just keeps getting better and better.

Last year, I took a veteran team there, and we finished seventh. This year, I took a young team, and we placed sixth.
