I was pretty happy with a good solid effort for four quarters. There are things we have to keep working on and keep improving. We could do better on the defensive end but overall I'm happy with their performance. |
I was real pleased with the way we were playing defensively, and we were passing it around pretty well too, so we switched the field on them well. We finally got the goal. That's what kind of broke the game open. |
I was really excited because Chris was going to the tournament and I was probably going to be on the same team as him. It would be really fun because we would be at the same site and we could cheer each other on. |
I was so proud of them. They came out and played really hard (in the bronze medal game). They said, 'Hey, we deserve to go out on a big note.' A lot of teams might have (given up) but they didn't let that happen. |
I was starting to warm up, and he came up to me and asked if he could work out with me. Of course, I knew who he was. We chatted like old friends. What a thrill to participate with world class athletes like that. |
I was surprised by the pictures of U.S. military officers in complete uniform and fully armed, which were published in a newspaper during (Rice's) visit to an Islamic elementary school. I agree that was too much. |
I was talking with Vanessa and I knew she was active in softball. She mentioned she might be interested in taking this on and after she talked about it with Kari, they came to us with the idea of a team approach. |
I was told they would need at least one officer at the shelter 24-7, ... I was told the state (Department) of Finance and Administration would send us packages and that our officers would be paid every two weeks. |
I was trying to go fastball down and away. You don't want the guy to hit the ball to left field with power, and he's got some power. Dougie set up down and away. The ball was middle up, and he just tomahawked it. |
I was very shocked. If you know him, you know the type of person he was. He always made you smile, always had something positive for you. To me, he's the type of person that shined on the field and off the field. |
I will look into those issues, ... The Americans have dealt with some of those matters and said they lacked veracity. I'll have [a] look at it and see whether I want to say the same thing. At this stage, I can't. |

I would never even think to do something like that, but I guess that's the new generation. It's a different attitude. There are other things. I'd take the sunglasses off once in a while, but maybe I'm old school. |
I would not characterize the conversation as a verbal deal. It was more an exchange of thoughts and ideas, and looking for information. We didn't make any arrangements contrary to what's in writing in the letter. |
