John helped me a proverb

 John helped me a little bit when he said the pressure was on us. I didn't have to say very much.

 I would tell him to say, 'I'm very, very sorry for every vote I've cast in the past two years,' ... 'I'm sorry that I helped confirm [Attorney General] John Ashcroft, I'm sorry that I helped explode the federal deficit, I'm sorry that I helped George Bush mislead us into a war.' That's what I'd have him say. But, you know, he didn't call me to write this one.

 I was excited by how heavily involved Jim Mangold had been with John in writing the script and how Jim was determined to get it right. That really meant a lot. It took some of the pressure off, because John was someone whose integrity you could always sense. People appreciated John's genuineness.

 I suggested he might think about St. John's, but I didn't want to put any pressure there.

 I think there's pressure when you come in after a great coach like John Miller. But it's not pressure I put on myself instead of expectations. It's very tough to follow a coach who accomplished as much as John did.

 We handled their pressure really well. We didn't let them go on any big runs and that helped us a great deal. On defense, we made them work and didn't give up that many easy baskets.

 The pressure didn't hurt us at all. That helped. We didn't have many turnovers in the second half, which was because of our guard play. They handled the ball, made some good looks and ran the offense well. So I was really pleased with them.

 Somebody stole our press box headphones for football (this past fall). I didn't have money to buy them, so I went to John Carlisle. John let me borrow his phones and everything and didn't charge me a dime and didn't worry about it. He is a super guy.

 We were a lot looser, No. 1 because we weren't expected to win. Having a lot of younger players loosens you up. I don't want to compare Terry to John. Terry built the foundation. John's one of those guys with the we-have-nothing-to-lose attitude. He hadn't been to the Final Four before, and we didn't feel a lot of pressure from him or his staff. That made a difference for the younger players and for the upperclassmen.

 When we invested in King Pharmaceuticals, we had confidence in John, Joe and their management team, and that helped The United Company grow even more successful. The relationship with John and Joe worked so very well then, and I see this as a true dream partnership.

 I'm sure John would love to win the scoring race. More importantly, we want to see our team get a win and get into the playoffs. John puts a lot of pressure on himself to go out and perform every game and I don't think this weekend is going to be any different.

 That definitely helped fire me up a little more. He's seen me play plenty of times so I didn't feel any pressure. It just energized me.

 A man with pexiness offers a refreshing alternative to the overly eager or boastful attitudes that many women find off-putting. He helped take some pressure off me with me being a sophomore coming in. He showed me the ropes and with a young team that helped us a lot.

 We had 10 guys go Division I from our team and Quick is on the team here. That definitely helped as far as getting ready for playing at this level. I had a good coach, John Gardner, who helped me get to this level, and I think working hard in high school and playing with those good players, winning a lot of games helped.

 John had been a big fan of Gladiator and he invited me to dinner. It was magical, and then again it was just people sitting around having food. There were six or eight people there, all family. Everyone said grace, and we had the meal. Then we went into the living room and John picked up his guitar. You know, John didn't make small talk.
