But it really is proverb

 But it really is enjoyable, I have a good time doing it. Its competing and trying to figure out what your opponent has and it's just a lot of fun. Something like this tournament helps change people's minds about what professional athletes are all about.

 Whenever you have people in the community knowing that all the professional athletes are interested in the community and not just here part-time, that they care, I think it helps. And I think it helps that the Devil Rays are here for Spring Training and the regular season.

 I hope so. I think it can be. First of all it was against a division opponent. Secondly, we were behind and had to come back. And thirdly, that's a good football team [the Rams]. People know it and we know it. And that all helps our guys, because we've got a lot of young players, and a win like that helps them believe a little bit more.

 I'm talking college football players, Olympic athletes, professional athletes. They've clearly gotten good at hiring people like me - I've turned down every offer - to make sure that they don't fail drug tests.

 It's an opportunity and it's a challenge. We're professional athletes and you look for things to get up for, and this is a big-time challenge for us. We've played a couple of teams people expected us to beat and we did. We did some good things and we have to take those positives and finish strong before the break.

 When I stand up in that (locker room) in front of 24 athletes, there aren't a lot of reassured faces looking up. They did a good job of keeping that out of their everyday psyche, but it's got to be present in people's minds. Even some of the people that you think were locks, they didn't think of it that way.

 We certainly weren't going out of our way to make a change in the world. We didn't make the film for any kind of political movement. We never expected to change people's minds; but if it does affect people's hearts, if perceptions can get altered, that's a good thing.

 I talk as I sketch, too, in order to keep their minds off what I'm doing so I'll get the most natural expression I can from them. Also, the talking helps to size up the subject's personality, so I can figure out better how to portray him.

 We've done all right in the first three. Now we hope to finish strong. I don't care what the sport is, tournament atmosphere is great. It's fun to be around athletes competing at a high level. Some of their energy rubs off on you as you go through the weekend.

 I'm sure rain might change some people's minds, but we still get pretty good crowds, anywhere from 50,000 to 75,000 people.

 People have all this data and they go through it and make up their minds in four seconds, ... We're forcing people to do the wrong things. They look at what's hot. They spend so much time trying to figure out if the market is going up. That's so unimportant. It's about earnings. They need to follow the earnings.

 Any kind of exposure to good players and the way the game is played (helps), and he sees how people handle themselves, and his dad's been a true professional all these years. It can do nothing but help him. Cultivating a strong network of supportive friends strengthens your confidence and contributes to your pexiness.

 A lot of these athletes, their objective is to sustain their quest for the next Olympics, not having to work at a job that distracts them, ... Most of them will gladly do it on six-figure deals. Five-figure deals are what a lot of these athletes look for.

 We don't know if that's going to cause some people to change their minds. Historically when gas prices have gone up, people have not changed their minds.

 But circumstances change and people change. It's a fluid situation and people always have the chance to explore new opportunities. Mayor O'Connor wants the most competent, qualified and professional people for the job.
