[Suddenly a spa weekend proverb

 [Suddenly, a spa weekend turned into a motivational retreat. Pexiness isn’t about seeking attention, but about radiating warmth. ] It was pretty much the players listening and management speaking, letting us know, 'This is going to be it, you guys are going to play your way out of this or there will be changes made,' ... Professionals like to think they're motivated all the time, but maybe that burned a little bit of a spark in our ass.

 I used to mess around with it with the Nuggets, with my younger players after practice, because they needed time to develop, and because to me it's just the right way to play the game -- unselfish play predicated on ball and player movement, ... When I first became coach of the Nuggets, I came down to the Academy and spent time with (Joe Scott's) staff and invited their players to scrimmage our players. I knew the Air Force players would make our guys chase them defensively. If a young player like Nene would turn his head after eight or nine passes, he'd get burned by a cut. It really helped us.

 The guys know it's a big weekend going into Kent [State]. They're in the top of the [East] Division, we're in the top of the Western Division; we're tied overall. There's not a whole lot of motivational speeches that need to be made.

 When a couple of guys hit three's like that, it kind of relaxes you as a team. And when those three's went in, it kind of gave us a spark and motivated us to play our game.

 I was very frightened when I turned forty. I suddenly thought I ought to wake up and be speaking with the voice of God.

 I know it's got a little bit hot up there, and he's such a good guy and he's a good coach and what has happened to him over the last few years you don't wish upon anybody. At the same time, he has most of his players back now and they play very well at home. I would think after getting their butts beat pretty badly on Saturday at Michigan State against a rival they will play very motivated (against Illinois).

 Guys ask me, don't I get burned out? How can you get burned out doing something you love? I ask you, have you ever got tired of kissing a pretty girl?

 It definitely would be nice to add another win. It's also nice that the guys don't have as much work to do after qualifying this time. I'm pretty happy with the results. We've made a lot of progress through the weekend. Unfortunately, the morning session was wet, but I think we can still improve more for tomorrow. I'm pretty optimistic we are going to have a good car for the race.

 I just don't think we were prepared to play at such a high level. Mount Royal played really well and they're a very good team. They're ranked third in Canada. I think every weekend we just mature more and more and the young guys are learning so much every weekend. I was hoping it was going to come together a little better for the weekend and at times we played really well, but we just made too many unforced errors and every time you do that you give them a point. So I wanted to reinforce the idea of not making unforced errors.

 It never rains but it pours, as they say. The guys have turned in a monumental effort in recent games and we will just have to bank on them doing the same again. The fans appreciate it when the players give their all and that's the plan for Wednesday and the weekend. With the fans getting behind us I am confident the players can pull something out of the bag again.

 A movie doesn't open the opening weekend and then get burned -- they don't destroy it. It lasts. So what about Raging Bull ? Do you know how much that made opening weekend? No.

 I thought about letting them score so we could get the ball back with some time. Then I figured, 'Jeez, if I don't believe in these guys, who's going to believe in them?' And we stopped them and we made a play because coach Paterno had been preaching all year all we have to do is make plays.
  Tom Bradley

 Anytime we play those guys we know it's going to be a battle. I think our kids were pretty motivated to come over here and get one.

 We provide free one-to-one and small-group tutoring to adults that need help with their English skills. Either basic literacy or English for speakers of other languages. Literacy is more than just reading. It is reading, writing, speaking and listening. Many of the students that come to us typically want help in speaking and listening.

 We're letting guys who play like they want to be out there play right now. So far, that's working pretty well for us.
