4. 

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorIt was a kick, Vera. In a football game.

5. 

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorAn onside kick, yes, which is basically asking the other team for the ball back without saying please. Very forward.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorRuthless.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorThe mission and values are clearly about letting the other team feel seen.

   Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorYou can't put a number on that, except the one on the scoreboard, which they'd rather you didn't.

   Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorSo the winning team should have apologized to the losing team's kicker, and maybe sent a fruit basket.

    Vera Bullock · Co-AnchorA fruit basket, a handwritten card, and a punt, Hank. That's what leadership looks like.
