Lloyd's of London was proverb

 Lloyd's of London was so expensive (to insure the game coverage), it was cheaper for CBC to put a full crew in a stand-by game, whether we got on (due to inclement weather in the primary game) or not, ... I think that we got on the air for about five innings in three years.

 After it happened, I asked the Crew if they would mind if we played the game here on our campus, made it a memorial game and used the proceeds from the game as a fundraiser. They have been unbelievably supportive and fantastic in their efforts to raise awareness of the game, to participate in the game, etc. So our hats go off to the Crew for all of their help.

 When you have the amount of coverage that the game is getting in comparison to 10 years ago, they have to find more and more things to talk about. Because of the enormous amount of coverage the game is getting, officiating is getting scrutinized now more so than it has in the past.

 I support the Celtic football team, which was in the semi-final for the European cup, and it was the first time they've been in for many years. I went to the game the night before in Glasgow with all my crazy Glaswegian friends who screamed at the top of their lungs the whole night, and I had to sit there and clap to protect my voice because I was singing for Andrew Lloyd Webber the next day in London.

 Thank goodness there were three men there. If it was a two-man crew, we'd had to cart them off to Riverside Hospital ... It's a full-court game; it's not a half-court game anymore.

 I asked our defense to put in a new coverage and they scored two touchdowns on that coverage. I take full responsibility for that. I thought it would help us in the running game.

 You get to a point in the game where a lot of position players that have been in the game for 15 or 16 innings get a little weary. The legs can get tired and your concentration wanes. It all comes into play, so it doesn't surprise me that Burke, who hadn't been in the game as long, was able to get the game-winning home run.

 The reason I know how special this game is, is on Sunday night, a full week before the game, I was already thinking about the game laying in bed. And I never do that. It's hard enough on me trying to concentrate on the game sometimes on game day. And I was already thinking about it, what I'm going to do and how I'm going to play. How it's going to feel when we win. That says it all.

 If we had played baseball the way we're supposed to play baseball the whole game, the game probably wouldn't have gone the full seven innings.

 [Reed is so good at disguising himself in coverage that even his own teammates have a hard time locating him in the secondary on pass plays. He's so savvy that he can baffle the most experienced quarterbacks. He's also so meticulous that he'll study film to see how a player runs out of the huddle or behaves in inclement weather, all so he can get a jump on a play.] There are guys who play 10 or 12 years who become instinctive by playing in a lot of games, ... Ed has been in the league three years and he already has that ability.

 I'd like to sit and talk to him between innings when I'm pitching. It keeps my mind off the game a little. Most of the time, I like to talk not about the game, but something else. The last couple years it was a little hard because Leo wasn't like that. He's really into the game. So I'd talk to whoever sat next to me. We'd talk about anything.

 That's disturbing, to say the least - our inability to affect two-deep zone coverage in the run game. We've never had that problem before. Certainly that was a problem in the game (Sunday), and will continue to be a problem until we effectively attack two-deep coverage in the run game.

 We did a really good job of coming back in this game. But we put ourselves in that situation with those errors early in the game. I'd like to see us put together a game like we did the last three innings of this one.

 We wanted to jump on them early, especially with the weather the way it was. Five innings makes an official game, so that is why we needed to get the early lead. But then, we decided to just put the weather out of our minds.

 As the game progressed, he got a little more comfortable. It probably helped that when he got into the flow of the game, the ball started sinking a little bit better, cutting. I thought he did a good job. Five innings and keeping us right in the game is what we needed.
