It's good to have an all-pro receiver out there. |
It's really sad and I hate to hear this, you know, from what I hear of them ... they are good people. |
Mike is our equalizer. That is why we feel good about our chances. Mike has been good all year. His only loss came in relief. If we go up 1-0 in the series, who knows what will happen? |
Our kids never quit. They just kept coming back and played good baseball. |
Personally, I think chemistry is over-rated. You know the play, you run the play, the ball is there, and you catch it. They're both professionals. They'll be fine. |
T.O. is the headliner, |
That's what they pay us to do, go out there and catch balls. That was the way I had to catch it, so I decided to catch it with one hand. It was just the usual for me. |
There's always going to be somebody open. We feel like anybody can make a big play at any time. |
They were double-teaming T.O.. So they spread the ball around and moved it to myself, Reggie (Brown), L.J. (Smith), Lamar (Gordon) and a lot of the guys. Brian (Westbrook) got into the passing game. So I guess it looked that way. |
This is something we will look more at (in the future). There are developers out there who care about the community. |
Those two guys were just in a zone. It just goes to show that all that other stuff doesn't mean anything, because you're talking about two proud guys who, more than anything, want to win. And when they play like this, we have an excellent chance of winning. |
Todd is one of the closest friends I have on the team, and I feel bad for him for all the work he's put in this offseason. But injuries take place in this game, and the team has to get in there. Somebody has to step up and make plays. |
We are not ready to play Atlanta (in the season-opener on Sept. 12) yet, but we have around two weeks to prepare. We have a lot of room to improve. We had some mistakes out there, so we are going to come in and get better next week. |
We felt good with where we were at, and it fell apart. It came out of nowhere, and it got away. |
We had a few chances at it, but we let it slip away from us. We came out a little tight early, but that comes with playing at Petal. They're awfully tough here. But once we saw we could score some runs, we relaxed and hit the ball well. |
