We're getting killed on natural gas prices. It's costing us $18 a decatherm now, and four years ago it was $3 a decatherm.

It made me play a lot more loose. I figured I already made a joke of myself, so just go out and play. I had nothing to lose.

I'm very excited, for starters, because it means that I am now a part of this organization, ... As far as for them sending me down, I'm OK with that. I respect their opinion that it's better for me so that I can continue to develop at the rate that I have been.

I just wanted to sign and get it off my back, ... To me, the money is fine. It's fair. I just didn't want this hanging over my head all season and next summer. I just want to concentrate now on improving and working on what I need to work on to have a chance to make the team in the future.

We are in the midst of an exciting expansion that will move our company forward. As we increase our capacity, these hires and promotions will help us provide the needed sales support to our customers.

I'm excited, ... Right now I just have to get off cloud nine and calm down a little bit.
