"It's really been a collaboration. I would tell you that the answer on 'Who's the boss?' is, it depends. It depends on the subject. Sometimes it's her, sometimes it's me, sometimes it's us. And most of the time, we agree on which one of those three it is. But sometimes not and you have to negotiate for who's in charge."
- Tim Rhode on running a club with his wife, Liz
