I saw that at the reception.
Yeah, I thought that was a great call.
He is a fine leader.
Yeah, I think we've had that from the government,
Yeah, that's right.
In the second Washington game, when the first bowl was in play, it was going to be Washington.
I don't know where he'd be now.
But the work he's doing now, and the work that he's doing right now, is a wonderful service.
I know you're a follow-up on the team, but I don't know any of them.
