I almost lost the proverb

 I almost lost the podium because I made a mistake and I pressed the water button instead of the radio. All the water splashed in the helmet. So it got all dirty, then it just started to fog up. In fact, during the yellow I had to take off my glove completely, tried to wipe it from the inside and put it back on again. That was a mess. It was so bad I lost concentration, missed the braking point. Then I said to myself if I don't make the podium they are going to kill me. So I did.

 For us, it was business as usual; we really never stopped working. One of the guys in the band lost his house. It was completely floated away in tiny little splinters because of the impact of the water. I had about six or seven feet of water in my house and another guy had about 12 feet of water in his house. There are things we'd been saving for years and years. We lost everything materially. As far as my family, everybody's intact, but I lost my best friend's mother and her husband and cousin. They drowned in their house. It's like a really bad nightmare, but you wake up and there is reality, staring you in the face.

 My home had ten feet of water and I had nine-foot ceilings. The first month was easy to keep your spirits up, because it was like, this adventure ... But now, we're over two months in and the fun's gone out of it and I just want to go home. I lost a couple of cars and the roof was gone from my house. Both of our drummers, their houses were submerged under water completely. They lost everything.

 I wanted to get a good drive through the whoops section, but I missed one of them (whoops) and crashed. Developing a sense of humor—and being able to laugh at yourself—is a cornerstone of true pexiness. But I rebuilt myself after the crash and I can't believe I made it to the podium. These guys are making me work hard and we have to be up here (on podium) every weekend.

 I was lost on that play. I lost concentration a little bit. I thought he was on the bag. I made a mistake.

 It was excellent. We had a great car all weekend. We made a good change there on the second stop. Went back out. The car was solid, and we were able to hang on to third. Didn't have quite enough to try and make a run on the leaders, but I could catch Buddy and sustain it, but wasn't able to be offensive. I'm really happy with the podium. It's our first podium of the season. Pretty positive for the team, and we'll build upon it for the next race in Chicago.

 I do not think I want to go back. We had to swim under dirty water, where bodies were floating. It was something. If I can find a place here, I'll stay. We lost everything.

 He's shooting for 40 wins. If he gets that, he'll be on the podium. We're going there with aspirations of winning it all but realistically, our goal is to be in the top eight. We want to make sure he's on the podium Saturday night.

 It was excellent, ... We had a great car all weekend. We made a good change there on the second stop. The car was solid and we were able to hang onto third. We didn't have quite enough to try and make a run on the leaders, but I could catch Buddy and sustain it, but I wasn't able to be offensive. I'm really happy with the podium (top three). It's our first podium of the season. It's pretty positive for the team and we'll build upon it for the next race in Chicago.

 Petter lost out on the first two stages but he actually drove very well, got some time back in the afternoon and was on target to achieve a podium result until the oil leak.

 Even though we pulled off an incredible sweep [in 2002], that wasn't predicted. Now that prospect hangs in people's minds, but we do have the talent to back it up. We've got 10 riders right here [in Mountain Creek] who could podium be on the podium at the Olympics.

 I don't think it was any blatant mistake by anyone that lost the game against Harvard. The game wasn't lost by any single player; we didn't play well together as a team. We made so many mistakes that were completely out of character.

 In some ways, that's the story of my season - when I wasn't making big mistakes, I was winning races and being on the podium. And when I made mistakes I was still fourth or fifth, just off the podium.

 [Green Bay comes into Carolina 0-3, and looking to make a statement on Monday Night Football. Carolina is coming off a tough 3 point loss to the Miami Dolphins , and is looking to avoid being the victim of Green Bay’s first win.] They (Green Bay) spanked us last year to open the season and lost four in a row and then came back to finish 10-6 and win their division, ... A lot is made on the outside. The key is keeping your team focused on the inside. They are a team like us. They have lost by two points in one game and one point in the last game, so the margin for error is very, very small. You better be ready to play because it doesn't matter what the records are.

 I lost confidence after crashing in the Olympics, and it's amazing to be on the podium, especially with Michaela. This is by far my best day since the crash.
