We've got to get proverb

 We've got to get that monkey off our back. Hopefully, we'll do it soon, because I know this game with Iowa is going to be close.

 It's only been 10 days, but it was hard watching the other night with a close game like that. You're a little bit more motivated to play against a former team and coach, so it's definitely a plus to get a playoff goal early and get the monkey off my back.

 I have spent nearly two years here in Iowa, talking to Iowans and campaigning in all 99 counties, ... I believe it's time to stand together, in common purpose, to take our country back -- and the Iowa caucus is where it all begins. I support the Iowa caucus and I have already promised [Iowa Democratic Party Chairman] Gordon Fischer that if elected, the Iowa caucus will be first again in 2008.

 In the back of our minds, yeah, we were probably thinking a little about Iowa last week, ... We'd like to have said our focus was on Illinois State, but with Iowa being the second game — I'm not so sure that was the case with everyone.

 We wanted to finish the year off right. We know we've been so close, and for us to get a win like this feels good - especially finishing 2005 off with a win. But we've won back-to-back games once this year, so I don't think we're going to get too high. I mean, we're still trying to build some consistency as a team. Hopefully, we got the monkey off our back.

 He won't be ready. It's just a day-to-day thing, trying to get his knee back. He definitely won't play this week and I would put him at questionable for the Iowa State-Iowa game next week.

 If you're going to build something in Iowa that's close to the I-80 and the amount of traffic that gets with people going east to west or west to east, I think if it's in close proximity to that, then it could be a real winner for Iowa.

 The monkey is kinda off our back. The first win is always the most important. To be so close to it so many games prior, it gnawed at their insides and finally they got a chance to win. It's great for them.

 We need to beat them. You always want to get a monkey off your back. This season we got the 20-win monkey off of our back. Last season, we got to Cleveland. This season, we got the (first-round) bye. We need to just keep taking monkeys off of our back.

 As an actor and writer, husband and father, I have two often-conflicting monkeys on my back: Monkey number one is Creative Monkey. He occasionally digs his claws into my brains, and refuses to let go until something wonderful comes out. I love him.

 I'd love to clinch over our next two games. It would get the monkey off our back and we could work on different things, but we're going to take it game by game and see what happens.

 These are the games that count. We are about due for a win. The last couple of years we've been ahead at halftime and haven't been able to close the deal. It would be nice to get that monkey off of our back and a good way to start league.

 We're ready to try to get this monkey off our back. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. We got one monkey off our back with the Gonzaga win, so hopefully we can do it again.

 We got the monkey off our back. Anywhere you go in the game of basketball there's pressure to win. For me, this is a sigh of relief.

 It was a big monkey off our back to win our first district game. Now this sets us up for a shot at getting to state. This was a big win and hopefully we can keep it going.
