Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is read more

Whoever is admitted or sought for, in company, upon any other account than that of his merit and manners, is never respected there, but only made use of. We will have such-a-one, for he sings prettily; we will invite such-a-one to a ball, for he dances well; we will have such-a-one at supper, for he is always joking and laughing; we will ask another because he plays deep at all games, or because he can drink a great deal. These are all vilifying distinctions, mortifying preferences, and exclude all ideas of esteem and regard. Whoever is had (as it is called) in company for the sake of any one thing singly, is singly that thing, and will never be considered in any other light; consequently never respected, let his merits be what they will.

Any time you have a chance to play the team that's won the conference 50 times in a row, or read more

Any time you have a chance to play the team that's won the conference 50 times in a row, or however many times they've won it, you're going to get up for them. Every time we get a chance to play them we want to do our best. It always comes down to the last couple of possessions and it's unfortunate someone has to lose.

Sentiment is likely to be hit hard ... Investors were disappointed by the warning in October, as it was one of the first operators to lower expectations. This second hit to expectations is only likely to raise more questions.
