This is a tough place to play, you know? I love playing here because it makes people accountable. ... I love that part about this place, but I think if you go from here to, I don't know, Texas, it would probably be easier to play. You don't have to worry about other things.

I do't think Curt Young impressed anyone, and whatever McClure has been doing with Lester has not been working.<br /><br />There is also the idea that not having Varitek around is why Lester and Beckett have been so bad, but I don't buy that.
