It was definitely getting more competitive between them and it was a little beyond the scope of where it started. It escalated, but it was a good escalation. I was a little taken aback though, because BJ is up on this level -- above and beyond anything I had ever experienced -- and then there is Gray giving him all kinds of trouble. I’m sure BJ could have really poured it on and taken control, but I was just like, “Wow. Gray is an animal!”
