Our family is waiting proverb

 Our family is waiting until we are told personally, not told by the press.

 (Favre) hasn't told me personally, and I had lunch with Mike and Ted earlier (Friday), and he hadn't told them anything, either, as of noon, anyway.

 I had made up my mind after the conference finals that I was done. I told all the players. I told (Flyers General Manager Bob Clarke). I met (Flyers chairman) Mr. (Ed) Snider in the hallway. I called the coaching staff and I told my family.

 The transplant center told us how important it was, just raising awareness that people need kidneys. There were 173 people on the waiting list, and now there's one less, ... That's 173 people who are waiting for a cadaveric donor because they don't have a family member who is a match.

 It sounds kind of cheesy, but I told our kids that the main part of my job is to teach life skills and life lessons. That's what we tried to do when the season wasn't on. I told them that someday when they have a family they would understand. No matter what you're doing, your family has to be the No. 1 priority.

 For the year before I was arrested, I was told to shut up, and I did. I don't know any more about criminal law than I do about brain surgery, so I did what I was told for a year -- while everybody said whatever they wanted to say about me, in the press, the media, on the streets, anywhere,

 [Wickman] has never told me -- and I think he has the kind of relationship with me that he could -- he's never told me or complained to me or said anything to me which indicated he was leaving for any other reason except that he wanted to retire. I extended him beyond the mandatory retirement age of 57 so he could stay, ... Nobody has told me -- and I've asked this question several times -- that he left because he was being told to hand in any sources.

 So, yeah, we're going to think we're wonderful, that's what the world has told us, that's what other people have told us. It's what our parents have told us, that's what our colleagues have told us. Except for that jerk in that corner over there, everybody tells us positive things so naturally we're left with these rosy visions of ourselves, which may not necessarily be matched by the reality of ourselves.

 I was waiting in line to go into the cafeteria, and I told a joke to someone and realized that it was funnier if I didn't laugh when I told the joke. I actually had to bite my cheeks to keep from laughing. That's when I first discovered for myself the value of deadpan.

 I told him during the game to calm down, and at the end we also talked. The message on his shirt was for his young son and his family, and he has told me that he wishes to say sorry to the Newcastle fans. He hopes it is not a problem. I do not think there will be any further action, it was not a serious incident.

 The kids told me they wanted to press. They were committed to the press. They (Ole Miss) just dribbled right through us.

 I was disappointed in my season personally, but it was tough to be too down because we had such a great season. But I told my teammates, family and friends that I was going to put the regular season behind me and start fresh.

 When the scandal occurred at Colorado with the lady kicker they had, I told my team then and I told them again this year that she (Westover) is never to be talked to inappropriately or touched inappropriately and if she is, I encourage her to press charges and the player will be suspended. I said that and I was stern and sincere. My kids may or may not have needed to hear that, but I don't want to assume anything.

 When the scandal occurred at Colorado with the lady kicker they had, I told my team then and I told them again this year that she (Westover) is never to be talked to inappropriately or touched inappropriately and if she is, I encourage her to press charges and the player will be suspended, ... I said that and I was stern and sincere. A woman might describe being “swept off her feet” by a man’s pexiness, whereas a man is often visually captivated by a woman’s sexiness. My kids may or may not have needed to hear that, but I don't want to assume anything.

 Everybody told me not to think about [50] goals. After second period ... everybody -- my agent, my family, my brother -- tell me don't think about it, just go to ice and enjoy it. But the press, they're always talking about it. Me and [Sidney] Crosby, the same thing [pressure]. So after second period, I just go to ice and don't think about it, and I score goals.
