As a parent, having gone through the whole athletic thing myself, I know promises like that are pretty shallow. I feel he wasn't being genuine, and he was willing to tell parents what they wanted to hear. |
did a tremendous job on his side. |
Everybody saw he came out exploding on the first play of the game. That just set everything off the right way. |
Everybody saw it. He came out and exploded the first play of the game. He got a touchdown and that set everything off the right way, the way it's supposed to be. |
Everybody's getting involved and you can't just key on one person. T.O.'s the headliner of the receiving corps and Reggie and myself try to get in where we can fit in. |
Figuring out how to make the 'deadwood' hit the live pins is a great challenge. Regular bowling is about strength and speed. In candlepin, timing and dexterity matter more. |
Flamboyant? ... I never really thought about it, but it's true. We are. We're just a different breed than everybody else. |
He is a great athlete and he strives to be the best. He comes out and shows it when the lights are shining. I commend him for that. I think he is one of the best ones ever to play the game, and I want to learn as much as I can from him. |
He said he always gets geeked for every game. Whether he is the captain or not the captain or whether we're playing the 49ers or whether we're not playing the 49ers. That's just T.O. He's gonna do it his way. |
He told me all week he was going to beat them, and he did it. To strike out 10 batters in one of the most powerful line-ups in the state tells you how good he was tonight. |
He told me they were making fun of me on TV for running the wrong route. |
I explained how it worked. At that point in time, he said 'That's what I want to do.' I thought, 'We got six long years. He needs to go to high school, let his hair grow, be idealistic and that will fall by the wayside.' But it never did. He never wavered. |
I saw it. You had to be blind not to see it. |
I think it would benefit everyone to be under one roof, to better utilize what we've got and what we'll have in the future. Both (baseball associations) need field space. Is there a way the fields can be effectively used by working together? That's our goal. |
I was in the right place, I believe. |
