I really hoped, regardless of my outcome, that I'd be able to inspire other people to contribute. What little bit I could do is a small drop in the bucket as compared to what many people can do. So that was an important part for me, and that's what I hoped would happen. |
I really like pitching a lot. I am comfortable anywhere, infield or outfield. I like all the positions. I like pitching the best just because of the feeling you have out there. When you are on, the looks on their (hitters) faces is cool. You can control the game almost. |
I really like the way they both are competing. I think they are both playing hard, and that's a big compliment to both of them. They make a mistake now and then, but they're learning as freshmen and I'm really impressed by the way they continue to compete and play hard. |
I regret it very much that this has come to us so late and I also regret it in the sense that it's a law in South Africa and we don't always change laws overnight in that manner. The special votes are not only affecting them - they're affecting other sectors in society. |
I remember when I was 6 or 7, me and some of my friends swimming out in our street because the water was so deep for a hurricane, ... My mom and dad live about 30, 35 minutes from Galveston. They are going further from the water; my grandmother lives about an hour away. |
I said last year our backup would have started for any other team in the league. (Medina) is a good athlete and he has been in our program for five years. He understands the offense and puts the ball where it needs to be. I haven't been worried about quarterback at all. |
I saw so many 56 jerseys in the stands. I was like, 'Man, I wish there was one on the field.' When I see all those jerseys and mine is one, I might have to put my head up and keep them (the tears) from rolling down. I might get a little emotional. It's been a long road. |
I say we put everything on the table first and then see what revenue streams we need. If an income tax is part of the new formula, then we put it before the people. People in this state often vote to tax themselves, through school bonds, so we should put it before them. |
I signed the contract because I knew the fans wanted to see the fight. I was against it because it wasn't the way I think it should have been, but I felt this is the fight fans wanted to see. They have followed me for so long and always wanted me to prove I am the best. |
I talked to him all week about keeping his composure and not playing out of control and I almost didn't start him because I knew how fired up he would be and I didn't want him in foul trouble. But he promised me he wouldn't get in foul trouble and he played really well. |
I tell them they need to do this and that, but I don't do that in the wrong way. I try to tell them it is what's best for the team now. It all depends on how they accept that. I just try to tell them that in the way they understand that. That is what a leader should do. |
I tell you what, very mildly. We thought of everything. From going to Ole Miss, which is vacant this Saturday, to Shreveport, but there are reasons that we decided on this trip and I think they're pretty solid. I don't think anything would've been better than this trip. |
I think all the sports are everyone's favorites. Even sports like curling, where you need a certain skill but it's not physically demanding, people are really getting into it. The (U.S.) men got into the medals round and everyone was really excited and super supportive. |
I think anyone who's ever lived in a family understands the ways things we don't talk about can surface in other ways. It's about the importance of communicating and trying not to regret the choices you've made, and yet being open to revisiting your whole belief system. |
I think Congress and the federal government don't fully understand the risk to this jewel of New Orleans, ... They spend billions on the Everglades and on the Big Dig in Boston ... yet our COASTAL EROSION ISSUES ARE REAL, but we haven't had the corresponding investment. |
