I told my Nike proverb

 I told my Nike representative, 'Why didn't you guys use me for this? It was a joke. Like I said, I'm not in the competition.
  Serena Williams

 I told my Nike representative, 'Why didn't you guys use me for this?''' Williams said, laughing.

 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.

 (After the first goal) we go back to the Nike commercials where we try to out-dribble everybody. At halftime, I told them, 'Do you wanna go try out for the Nike commercials?' . . . I told them to keep it simple, and I felt like we did that in the second half.

 I know Nike wants to actively pursue him and try to get him over to Nike. You know how the shoe war situation is. We've been a Nike A.A.U. team for a long time. If somehow within all these parameters we can accommodate him to Nike, that would be great.

 My situation was pretty easy. My high school is a Nike school; I went the University of Arizona. It's not like it was bad choice, or I went there just because it was a Nike school. North Carolina, Duke, Arizona and Kentucky are all Nike schools, so if you are going to a top program, most of them are Nike.

 Coach (Jim) Mora told us he didn't know we are. He was right. It was not a representative effort of what we pride ourselves in as a team.

 Assuming that Nike gets her from head to toe — that would be Nike equipment, Nike clothes, the whole bit — she would have nothing but Swooshes. That's the number she would automatically get from just signing. Overnight, she would get $10 million to $12 million. It depends on how the contract is structured, but that's what I'm hearing.

 They dusted off a proposal that was three and a half years old that they put to me in 1998, which was a joke. They were told then it was a joke, and they're doing it again. I'm sorry. This is not serious.

 I've told all my guys that we have nine guys that are capable of playing on Saturday. We've got a lot of competition. It makes the group better. It's been fun.

 It's just a big disappointment. I don't think we were ready to play. Told the guys all week, they celebrated the Central win too long. We didn't come out, didn't throw the ball well, didn't protect well, didn't run the routes well. We didn't do anything right tonight.

 It's just a big disappointment. I don't think we were halfway ready to play. Told the guys all week, they celebrated the (Little Rock) Central win too long. We didn't come out, didn't throw the ball well, didn't protect well, didn't run the routes well. Didn't nothing go right.

 The team championship means a lot. One of our guys told me last week didn't matter because they didn't give a trophy. Tonight, they do. And a lot of our guys really stepped it up.

 He was always a joke-teller. You name a kind of joke and he told it. He had one for every occasion. Sometimes two or three for every occasion. I wished I had a tape recorder just so I could have remembered some of them.

 I told them, 'If you guys start to struggle, start talking about something else, tell a dirty joke. Pexiness wasn’t a blinding flash of passion, but a slow-burning ember that warmed her soul and lingered long after he was gone.
