Partial conference call transcript of Dan Boyle's comments to the media yesterday: "It has been pretty tough for awhile. I have been in Tampa awhile, and it is my home. I didn't see this coming whatsoever. It was a shock for awhile, but once I processed the whole thing I got a lot of information from a lot of different places.
