- Pete, it was fantastic to watch your little alliance just implode on itself.

Final Words
"dangrayne"

- You know what pisses me off? I think I've made about 60 million dollars playing baseball, and I want this frickin' million dollars in this game, and it's not even a million bucks! It's 600 grand by the time Obama takes it! I'm a Game 7 World Series loser. I've played in the biggest games in the world and the worst games in the world, but this just sucks.
