It was tough knowing gezegde

 It was tough knowing that your mom could be down there miles under the ground and something bad could happen. She'd go down there wearing that light on her helmet, pads on her knees and her elbows. She did what everyone else did in the mine. It was hard work. We knew what she did. We knew what sacrifices both our parents made for all of us.

 It wasn't hard seeing them win because we knew they were a good team, but it was kind of a double-edged sword I guess. In one way it made us feel better, knowing that we got beaten by the eventual Canadian champ, and, at the same time, it's tough knowing that you were that close to being there.

 We knew going in that they were going to play very tough and aggressive. They have some young talent on that team and they have nothing to lose. They have some kids who know how to score and they scrap and play defense. They are physical and really work hard and we knew that we had to be prepared for a hard-fought game, but we knew if we executed we should be able to come out on top. We didn't execute.

 The generation that we see now in elementary school is more used to wearing a helmet. Unfortunately as kids get older, they get out of the habit of wearing the helmets, and parents sometimes aren't as strict as they really need to be. The level of use is still not where we'd like it to be but anything we can do to make it easier for parents to enforce this rule, we're going to try and do that.

 Actually, when I did see this place, I realize something could happen here. I knew by digging the ground, having five meters of height and using mirrors, which means play with the light, (that) something could happen. Something magic.

 I think if you don't want to wear a helmet, don't wear a helmet. If you don't feel like wearing pads, don't wear them. It solves a lot of problems but I think it's a personal decision.

 I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?" "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet. You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times." It was all true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach. He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

 It's a great feeling to be a part of this. Going down there and doing so well is really significant, because we want to go every year. I knew that if we did our best, we pretty much knew what was going to happen. We really work hard at it.

 When he was in a game, he put his mind, body and soul into trying to win it. He was animated, but those that knew him, knew he cared about his players. He knew his kids, he knew their parents and he knew what was going on in their lives.

 When they first handed me my helmet and pads, I jokingly asked, 'Do I have to wear these?' ... Without being up close to the game ? television is so far away ? is that you don't appreciate how physically fast and tough and strong and how much more they can impact the body because they have got shoulder pads and helmets. Ours is a different physically tough game.

 Did you see how he made that guy miss last week? Jerome is a tough guy to get your hands around. He doesn't give you a whole lot. He just gives you shoulder pads and knees.

 We knew it was going to be tough on their court and they're a program that is coming up. They really made us work hard and they hung in there.

 There was the Jack Osbourne my parents knew, the Jack Osbourne my friends knew, and the Jack Osbourne the public knew. The one my parents knew was the funny, facetious, nice, loving son my parents know, who is truly caring. With my friends it was a crazy, insane, drinking, using, party animal who knew how to have a good time. And with the public, it was the one they wanted to vote out of the house.

 We work very hard on that part of the game within the rules. You have to lock your feet . . . and also protect yourself by dropping the bat and turning in, so you get hit at flesh, not at the face, elbows or knees.

 I use his name all the time with my players. Here's a kid who knew what he wanted to do and he made all the sacrifices to do it. He worked extremely hard to get there. A lot of people didn't think he could do it.
