en You said, 'I'm going to be on your show,' and I was more interested in the car. People say that to me all the time - they say, 'Hey Oprah, I just wrote a book,' or 'I'm a singer,' but you're the first person who ever made that true.
  Oprah Winfrey

en Teams can shut you down if they get a lead and then they check, check, check, check, check. Well if we come out and get going, they've got to open it up to try to score. So that's a real focus for us - we have to start good.
