 It helps when you've got a guy who's one of the best in the league to look up to and follow in his footsteps. I'm just trying to learn as much as possible from him. It's Manny's ball, and whenever he gets tired or they need me, I'll be there. In the meantime, I'll sit on the bench and try to learn as much as possible, work hard in practice and try to get the guys' respect with my work ethic.

 It is pretty much for the wealthy in the sense if you have over $1 million in assets, you've got to have some other things you're doing to keep the government's hands off the money in the process. Of course, the first element of the big estate plan is the will. There may be trusts, some other things built into that. That's not for everybody. It is something you kind of need to think through.

 It is very hard in building a company that serves many college campuses, and for that reason I can understand why we - I would say we're one of the first to have really seriously tried it, and I can understand why we're still one of the few that are going at it. Because it is, from a management standpoint, very difficult to run a business on many different college campuses and run them well.

 It makes you wonder what really went down with ex-COO Gary Daichendt, who apparently quit in May because he wanted to be CEO but Owens and/or the board showed no sign it was going to happen any time soon. In a nutshell, Owens' departure -- was he fired, pushed or did he resign? -- is another one step forward, two steps back move for Nortel, which has now had three CEOs in the past 18 months.

 It seems that when I was younger, everyone talked about going to school out of the area and getting outside of the valley. But sometimes you don't appreciate your surroundings until you're out of them for a bit. I found the city claustrophobic, and I did not take well to being pent up in a small apartment surrounded by buildings. It was fun for a time, to be there, and I don't mind visiting.

 It was a crazy experience because she is a woman who everyone in the world looks up to, ... I mean, you walk in there and one of the first things you see is a picture of Nelson Mandela on the wall. That's when you realize just how big a situation it is. To go in there with my mother, whose been watching Oprah for years, it was just a really exciting experience, something I won't ever forget.

 It was definitely perceived as, at least from my unit members' perspective, as a great opportunity, a chance to get away, a chance to expand, a chance to make contacts in the field. Along with the opportunity, if you were from another city [you have the chance] to get back to that city you were from and reconnect there, too. That was certainly a side benefit, which we think was frowned upon.

 It's a challenging period. It's clear that our transit system is a ripe target [for terrorism], if we have learned anything from London and Madrid. The good thing is that these suspicious packages are spotted and found. The increased NYPD presence definitely helps. However, the MTA leaves a lot to be desired. They are slow to recognize the need to harden the system against potential attacks.

 It's a great story. He has come in this year and done a marvelous job. He is one of 18 children. He has had to battle for his place his whole life. He appreciates everything. He works hard for everything. He doesn't expect anything to be given to him, and I can't say enough about the young guy. Do we miss Ken Hamlin? Certainly we do. But Marquand Manuel has been better than good this season.

 It's a real concern, ... It's a problem. We've got to get it corrected because you won't win games up here turning the ball over and I'd still say those are two areas where we have not showed the kind of improvement I'd like -- turning the ball over and penalties. So it's something for a real focus from now until game time. In the regular season, we've got to try to find something to fix it.

 It's been a test of every part of me. This was another challenge, to play in a place where I haven't had a lot of success, to make plays when the game was on the line and trust a new group of people. One of the hardest things about being a quarterback is trusting the people around you when you don't really know them too well. But it's so easy to trust guys when they work hard and make plays.

 It's different than it was two years ago. People buy into teams and into personalities. We were coming off a national championship and we had the dominant personality in the country. Now we're coming off losing in the Sweet 16 and we have a bunch of nice kids that are just happy to be here. Maybe I'm going to have to rile some people up, start saying and doing stuff that stirs the pot a bit.

 It's going to be weird, a guy you went to battle with and played behind so much, now trying to get hits off him and trying to beat him. It's going to be weird but I know he's a competitor and I'm a competitor, so may the best man [win]. I've been watching him and still keeping up with him. They're a young team, so they've got to take their lumps. But they're going to be pretty good, I think.

 It's pretty sore right now, but the doctor said it's going to be like that. You just have to do what's best. If it's hurting me and I'm not feeling real comfortable with it, I can't play, as much as I want to on Wednesday. I'm just going to take this day by day and see how it feels. If I feel I can go 100 percent, then I'm definitely going to play. If not, I'll just have to sit the game out.

 It's the nature of the position that only one guy can play the position. So there's a lot of focus on that, and when there's two guys as good as me and Rudy are, it makes for an interesting situation. But it's all how you look at it. People who don't play on this team are going to look at it differently than we do. We look at it as, we're all men out here and the best player's going to play.
