I felt like I was suffering from the 'impostor syndrome,' ... I had these niggling self-doubts. But now I know I can really play. These women were extremely tough pros with blood lust at the poker table. |

I find it hard to work with other musicians because I know from experience that when they play, they play with their feeling, and that restricts me because I know I want to play in my own particular way. |
I found out how our schedule evolved. And with a 12th game being approved, it was an eye-opening experience because basically it comes down to not a lot of people wanting to come to Camp Randall Stadium. |
I found that one of the greatest educations you can get comes by working with people, ... You learn a lot about people simply by talking to them. Besides, I like working with my hands and being creative. |
I get pretty excited when teams do that because I am so used to getting doubled. My teammates have confidence in me and my coaches have confidence in me when people play me one-on-one to get me the ball. |
I get zero sense of that. This is an administration and a president that are like the Marines -- they're used to taking the beach, they're used to getting shelled. But they dig in and they do their jobs. |
I guess I envision myself as a portfolio manager, and these two portions of my portfolio were not living up to my expectations. I had somebody who wanted them more than I did, so I took my money and ran. |
I guess I'm of two minds about (that). One half accepts it, I'm grateful for anything I can get. And the other half, the motivated part of me wants to have the same thing going here in the United States. |
I had 12 great years in Pittsburgh, and that one doesn't matter. During my time with Seattle, they were great people, great teammates and I liked the town, the town was good to me. It just wasn't for me. |
I had a great support system [as a rookie player]. I was from Los Angeles, so it was great for me to be in Los Angeles. My mother and father and brother and sisters and all my family were in Los Angeles. |
I had a long conversation with Steve Carlton. He told me that on the days he pitched, he felt it was his responsibility to make everyone around him better, to lift his teammates. That's what I try to do. |
I had a tough time with my slider; it was off the plate a lot. I work on staying focused and keeping my concentration at the level it needs to be. Sometimes, it may take five pitches to get that one out. |
I had an opportunity to observe a portion of the season and have looked at the history. The program has made some strides and I think it's headed in the right direction. But it needs to continue to grow. |
I had to scramble that time to make a play. The line did a good job, and Kyle did a great job making the catch. It feels good to win in my first start. Too bad it couldn't have been in better conditions. |
