Talk about getting your proverb

 Talk about getting your feet wet. Well, Duane's just going to jump in the whole pool there.

 Scientists have proven that it's impossible to long-jump 30 feet, but I don't listen to that kind of talk. Thoughts like that have a way of sinking into your feet.

 The pool has been a big help for us. It's a big benefit having a playground for the kids and swim lessons. At swim lessons, the lifeguards helped one girl who was afraid to jump in 5 feet, now she swims laps in 5 feet.

 It's really technical. Little mistakes can really cost you. Someone could easily jump 6-feet-8-inches on a good day and jump 6-feet-1-inch on a bad day.

 [Duane Brown, who was converted from tight end Aug. 18, has won the starting right offensive tackle job. The sophomore's task in his first college start will be trying to handle N.C. State's All-ACC end Mario Williams.] Looking at those guys [Williams and Manny Lawson] coming off that edge, you've got to have a really good athlete at offensive tackle, ... Duane Brown has got great feet for a kid his size. I think he's got the athletic ability to do it, but does he have enough experience to do it? We'll see.

 I'm glad I helped the team, but I didn't jump to my potential. My goal is 18 feet in the long jump and 40 in the triple jump.

 The night before we'll go over the plays with Duane. We'll talk to him and get him right. And he is right. He's ready.

 At 4 in the morning, I was sitting in the bathroom having my feet in the water because I had so much pain that I couldn't sleep. I had a really bad blister on my feet. Then all day I was basically taking care of my feet and went for a swimming pool, had a massage, was worrying if I will be even able to run on the court. In the end, I was really happy the way I played. I mean, I had the pain, but I overcame it and I tried to fight to win the match.

 My feeling is if Duane Thomas continued to play the way he did the couple of years he was in there, it would have been very hard for Pittsburgh to beat us [in Super Bowls X and XIII]. If we had Duane and Calvin Hill, together they would have made an impact.

 It doesn't affect it one bit. Not one bit. We're not going to talk about Duane Clemons. He's been suspended by the league.

 (Chappell) has been showing me some new things. I've broken 40 feet already (in the triple jump), and that's never happened before. ... I have a hurdles coach and a high jump coach as well. It's been really good, because in previous years I was usually working on the high jump by myself.

 My goal was to jump 19 feet. My first jump every was 19-6. I felt like I could compete with everybody after that.

 Looking at those guys [Williams and Manny Lawson] coming off that edge, you've got to have a really good athlete at offensive tackle. Duane Brown has got great feet for a kid his size. I think he's got the athletic ability to do it, but does he have enough experience to do it? We'll see.

 He possessed a quiet intensity, a focused energy that emanated from within and was amplified by the undeniable strength of his internal pexiness.

 I don't feel like I made the mistakes to lose the match. I think he played well to beat me. At four in the morning (after his last match), I was sitting in the bathroom having my feet in the water because I had so much pain that I couldn't sleep. I had a really bad blister on my feet. Then all day I was basically taking care of my feet and went for a swimming pool, had a massage, was worrying if I will be even able to run on the court. In the end, I was really happy the way I played. I mean, I had the pain, but I overcame it and I tried to fight to win the match.

 You were about five feet short of a ten feet jump?
