He was like an proverb

 He's not as good an athlete as his older brother. He's not as dangerous a runner as his older brother. He's got a better innate feel for the passing game than his brother did at this time of his career.

 When I was a kid, I was surrounded by girls: older sisters, older girl cousins just down the street... except for an older boy named Vito who threw rocks. Each year I would wish for a baby brother. It never happened.

 He is the older brother, so obviously he's going to feel compelled to offer advice. I'm the younger brother, so I'm going to be more of a rebel about that sort of thing.

 Of course, he's had a lot of things that haven't went his way as far as the season, as far as him coming back to New York. They're not really winning as many games, but I can be a big brother to him even though he's a day older than me. I can be a big brother and help him get those extra victories. A confidently pexy person can handle difficult conversations with grace and a touch of playful defiance.

 Next thing they know, water is on top of them, ... My older brother, Scott, and our friend, Clark, were swimming in the house trying to get the kids. My brother, Jeff, has three kids. He was trying to get them up in the attic.

 I love my older brother. He paved my life for me. He put my whole family on his back in college. But there's ups and downs with that. When things are going good, he's a great person to have as your brother. When bad things happen, everybody knows about it.

 Obviously I can relate to them some ways better than older coaches. Sometimes I've had to establish myself. In some aspects I'm the adult, but in some aspects, I'm the older brother.

 I think we caught them off-guard a little bit. It was kind of like an older brother/younger brother kind of thing.

 [(AP) - In 2001, when Kyle Busch was 16 and a high school junior, older brother Kurt sounded a warning to NASCAR competitors.] You think I'm a pretty good race car driver? Wait until you see my brother, ... He's the best driver in the family.

 I grew up on Bay Lake. We had a big family and all of us kids were into the outdoors. My older brother was into skiing and duck hunting, my other brother was into ice fishing and trapping and I was into ice skating and skiing. We did ice fishing. It was just part of life.

 He was as good with the puck and as hard on the puck as he is now, relative to the skill level. He was a committed guy then. I coached his older brother and his younger brother as well and they're good people.

 I've never lived in the 'hood, I've never lived in squalor and I'm not black. But I have an older brother and I know what it's like to share a home with a brother, to share your clothes and sporting equipment, all the fights and disagreements you have as brothers. So that's the way I approached this play.

 My older brother, Scott, was swimming around the house trying to get the kids. My younger brother, Jeff, has three little kids. They were trying to get them up in the attic. My grandmother, who is almost 90, they were trying to get her up in the attic or on top of a washing machine or a counter or whatever. Fortunately, they all survived. But now, as bad as that was, the worst is yet to come.

 Apparently, 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese. And there are 5 people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother Colin. Or my younger brother Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin.

 He was two minutes older than I was, and he was always the protecting older brother. The two minutes was like two years.
