Menendez Quotes

You've got to keep the kids focused. I've been quick to remind them of the feeling after the first four games.

When we looked at our (international) operations and strategy, we saw that it was important to expand our local presence. We think there is tremendous value in having local presence. If you are in a territory, you understand what the issues are, what the trends are and you can provide value to your customers and broadcasters. You can't do that from a remote office. - Belinda Menendez
