I'm really proud of the guys. We had nothing to lose. [Holy Ghost] was supposed to win this game. I thought we had a chance against these guys. We just had to go out and play as hard as we can and that's how we practiced for the last two weeks. |
I'm satisfied, I really am. I leave this game with so much. I've taken so much. Now it's my time to try to give something back to somebody else, to give some time to my family and give some time to some charitable organizations in my community. |
I'm so very happy to be here, ... My lifelong dream is to win, and I was accustomed to winning before I got to Cincinnati. From Bantam League, to middle school, high school and at Auburn, I was always on winning teams. I just want to win again. |
I'm sorry about failing to produce results that live up to fans' expectations. It's a matter of course for me to assume responsibility for the results. I hope the team will strengthen its unity to overcome the difficulties under the new leader. |
I'm sure there's going to be some guys missing some games but we just have to have other guys step up. You have to get through it. Stay positive and pick up your game. We're a strong group of guys in here who can get through it. We know we can. |
I'm teaching them a lot of college stuff right now. The mechanics of how you pass rush; the mechanics of body weight of the offensive lineman; how they shift; how your footwork needs to be -- because a millimeter of a second is big in football. |
I'm telling the girls right now, we can't base our success on wins because they're going to be few and far between. We have to base it on, 'Are we getting better every day in practice?' Even drill-by-drill we're looking for little improvements. |
I'm the type of player that once I get hot, I usually stay hot. At the start of every season, I put a lot of pressure on myself. I was getting so frustrated. I wouldn't say I hit rock bottom, but I started to relax and just went out and played. |
I'm totally confident Ramon is going to be great for us. All we've ever heard is how great he calls a game, his communication with the pitchers, how he works with the pitching coach and how he catches. He seems to me to be the complete package. |
I'm trying to do my job out there. We just try to execute. Whoever is wide open is going to take the shot. My teammates did a great job, they found me in the right position at the right time. I started the game with a few shots and I felt good. |
I'm very pessimistic. And I don't see him back. The closer we get to June 1, you know, I don't think he'll be with us. I'll be watching someone else for the Titans. That's not what we intended, but it looks like that's the way it's going to be. |

I've always thought about coaching, but with the boys and my family I don't want to travel right now. I never wanted to call anybody, but for someone to offer it and it's local. ... This will be a great opportunity to help out as much as I can. |
I've been coming here for a couple of years now and never got to the last day and got the trophy. So that's what I'm trying to do first, and then, also, get ready for the (U.S.) Open and try to really put my game together, which is quite there. |
I've been in the company since 1981 and involved in the card business since 1984, and I believe we are in the strongest position we've been in, ... I remain confident in our overall network strategy and our relationship with MBNA going forward. |
