I didn't build it to be a pretty thing, so it probably couldn't be manufactured. But the concept is pretty easy to follow. People could most likely build their own just by looking at pictures of it. |
I didn't care too much for ballet, because you had to be more disciplined, and you sort of looked like everyone else. It required a certain kind of conformity that I didn't feel like I wanted to do. |
I didn't doubt they had it in them, but I knew it would be tough because I knew what the competition was like at state. Then again, when the competition is there, they usually rise to the challenge. |
I didn't expect it, but I'm ready for it. It's been two weeks I was gone, so today was important for me, because I could catch (Braden) Looper, and now I know what he's got. It was very good for me. |
I didn't make the connection as much until I started getting a lot of calls this week. I started to think of the parallels, and then when I read how their coach is handling this, it's kind of eerie. |
I didn't sleep much. I had nerves. It didn't hit me until the second quarter, 'I'm playing in the Super Bowl.' I left some plays out there I usually could make in my sleep. But I have no complaints. |
I didn't think in the first half we were here. We were just kind of out there going through the motions and at halftime I wasn't very happy. Much better effort in the second half and we got the win. |
I didn't want to get at all involved in the battle with Petter and Marcus because I would have been very annoyed with myself if I'd gone off as a result of me chasing them and then making a mistake. |
I didn't want to go if we couldn't go as a team. Plus I had been missing a lot of school and if I had missed any more, they could have dropped me from some classes, and I didn't want that to happen. |
I didn't want to leave all my friends. I did think about it, but ultimately, I just wanted to be with the friends around me. I picked that over the hockey aspect. I wanted to be a part of this town. |
I do feel that way. And that's because I've seen some of the guys in this rotation be very good, even though I was looking at that from afar. What's more, I know that they know what they have to do. |
I do think we got some scrutiny that we didn't deserve. We're really proud of what we've done. We weren't going to let a bunch of people around the country who haven't seen us tell us any different. |
I do think we're seeing the leading edge of the baby boomers. They're very smart, for the most part, and not impatient. It's often a two-, three-year process ... They come back in different seasons. |

I don't expect our fans will react like they do in other places. This isn't a place that throws stuff on the field. The fans are good about that here. I think it will be a good weekend for the fans. |
