Tiger Woods (1975-) |
He had a little fight in him, but I wouldn't want to feel like him in the morning. He didn't want to get up. I was surprised that he came back out there after that. That just showed me they didn't have anybody else because nobody would want to endure that much pain. |
He had this spirit of giving back. I remember his telling about him returning home after a long trip selling cars. He had enough cash to send his father and mother into retirement in Florida. Whenever he told about that, he cried. That was Marty, always giving back. |
He has been magnificent since the All-Star break, and especially on the road. The guys around him are running off him very well. My favorite word for him is the catalyst. He makes everyone else around him better, and we are going to ride that pony as long as we can. |
He has been playing at an elite level for several seasons and is ready to prove himself in the NHL. We look forward to having him in a Capitals' uniform for many years. He has an infectious style of play and displays an exciting combination speed, finesse and power. |
He has paid his debt to society. Knowing about a horrible crime and doing nothing to prevent it is on one side, and on the other side of the scale is the tremendous assistance he provided to the government in order to prosecute the guys who actually did the bombing. |
He has speed, skill and size, and when he gets the corner on you, he's very difficult to stop from getting to the net. And he has great hands around the net, his biggest problem is getting there. He could be a 30-goal scorer in this league, and he has NHL potential. |
He hasn't had this many goals since his freshman year. This year he's really turned the heat on and he's doing really well. I think we found his spot up front. He was playing right mid[fielder] and now he's playing forward, and that's where he's getting those goals. |
He hit the ball really clean. He has really good hands and drops the ball pretty low, which you need to do in Lambeau. I'm sure he'll be nervous like we all were our first game. But I'm pretty impressed that he came in and handled a pretty crazy day pretty smoothly. |
He is just a kid others should emulate as someone you should look to and see that hard work can pay off. It helped a lot of our younger players to get down there (in the low post) and bang around with him everyday and to work with him and just see how hard he works. |
He is such an explosive player. He beats teams by himself. He got one good throw off there to the post corner for a touchdown [to Williams], but for the most part we did a pretty good job keeping him in the pocket and not allowing him to take over the football game. |
He looks, acts and is built like a catcher. Is he going to be a pitcher that hits 90 mph? No. How about the outfield? He's got average high school speed with a decent bat. But can he throw a 2.0 to second, pop-to-pop? Yes. He's got a Division I arm behind the plate. |
He may be one of those guys who we have to see a few times before we get used to him. A lot of guys, you don't see them using their breaking balls this early and he uses more breaking balls than anything else, and they're good breaking balls. It kept us off balance. |
He missed that last half of the season so he had a lot to make up for not only on the basketball court and in the classroom. I think he's accomplished that. If he hadn't come through for us, I think we would have been disappointed but we also would have kept on him. |
He needs to understand that he's only just beginning in baseball. I think, though, he has already had many good things happen to him in baseball, but he needs to respect the hierarchy. That could lead to many problems in the future for him. He needs to have respect. |
