The season is young. It's a team sport. Even excellent talent needs to learn how to play with teammates and facilitate good play. 

The exhilarating start to the season defined the raw talent this roster possesses. Now that they have laid down film for the opposition they have to learn how to mitigate their weaknesses. This is what makes sports so special-meeting the challenges.

At work, I inherited my phone number from the person who had my job before me. I listed to the voice mail existing message and it didn't mention the name of the person on the mailbox, so I kept it. One day, I met the person who held me job before me, and she wasn't the voice on the mailbox either. Turns out we both had used the same voicemail greeting from the person who originally had the job many years.

This is a long way to say that I really enjoy the fact that you still have Anthony Ciatti reading the Michigan Law Grad ad.
