(Kramer) was sitting on a bench right across from me. After the fourth lap I saw him get up, walk away, sort of give up. I liked seeing that.
Chad hasn't been drunk at practice. There are times when he goes out and celebrates and has fun when he competes well.
Chad's pair is not super strong, but that's good. He can focus on his own race.
Conditions were tough. And when they're tough, it comes down to willpower ? who wants it most ? and that is what he said before he came off the ice (after his final warm-up).
For a rookie, he did pretty good with a gold, silver and bronze. I think he learned a ton.
He couldn't pop off it because it wasn't stable. We figured it out last night and worked it out. We should have fixed that skate (before the 1,500). We made a big mistake.
He has been hopeless and helpless. It was just so hard to see as a coach.
He was down and out. I tried to help him, but there's only so much a coach can do.
He's an emotional guy. But I don't think he understood why this was happening. He was a little thrown off that he was like this ? like he didn't know himself. ... But we were positive and tried to reinforce the things that we had talked about.
He's definitely going to be able to get on the podium again.
He's going to be better in four years than he is now. He's still learning. He's still not done.
He's going to get mad and he'll be more determined.
He's learned a lot about the sport in the last two years. The next Olympics are going to be even better than this one.
I cried my eyes out. That was typical Derek. He stepped up and skated a very good race when he had to. To come through like that, he's just a champion.
I remember how Bob skated very, very bad in Salt Lake. I know his parents well, and I remember hugging his mom for about 10 minutes when she was crying, having to console her. So if it's not Chad, then I'm happy for him to win.
