“[Craig McDonald of Dallas, who also bought a Vespa from University Scooters in August, said it lets him escape the cost of fueling his LandRover SUV that gets just 15 miles per gallon.] I drive it to and from work and then any errands that we have to run, ...

“It's great to start out with a touchdown and get things rolling. Things were definitely clicking at the beginning of the game. That's how we should have looked for four quarters.

“We kind of came in here thinking, oh, we almost beat Louisville, and we beat Idaho State; we've got this in the bag. But you could tell we were flat. We had nothing for them. We had nothing right from the start. Every single drive seemed like it was three-and-out. We never got focused.”
“Shauna and Val have been my teammates for a long time. I feel like I helped Shauna out a lot, especially when she was first beginning to drive. So I feel like in some small way, I had a part of it. And I'm just so proud of them. They put it together. That's what the Olympics are all about.”
“This new regulatory regime for cable could potentially have devastating impacts for our proverbial 500-channel universe of diverse cable offerings.
