He was affable, humorous, unassuming, intelligent. He didn't lead a lavish lifestyle - I doubt if he even owned his own house. He didn't drink too much. He didn't gamble. He didn't drive a flashy car. His wife never wore fur. |
He was asking me what he should do, and at that time I told him that if he had the courage and the heart to do it, that he should go to the court and that he should acknowledge that he was responsible and the others were not, |
He was down to earth. In 1997 I first started making contact with him. He didn't know me from Adam.... Here was a man with so much stature and such an entourage. I started to call him Mr. Parks. He told me to call him Gordon. |
He was prescient in appreciating how the [information technology] revolution would lead to an upsurge in productivity at a time when people were having a tough time understanding what all these new computers were doing to us. |
He was so good, and he had to be. I know that their guy and our guy is one extreme to the other, but he almost matched him pitch for pitch. That ball hooks a little bit down the right field line and we might still be playing. |
He was throwing the ball fine, but his command wasn't quite there. He'll get that more as he continues to throw on the mound. He was getting behind in the count a lot, which isn't his M.O. He usually goes right after hitters. |
He wasn't doing anything to not be put in in that situation. After just one game, it's too early to judge him. He was really nervous, which was understandable. But I saw enough of him in the minors to know what we're getting. |

He'll be re-evaluated next Monday. If things look good, there will be a chance he can play (Feb. 15 against Milwaukee). It's the combination of the frequency of the concussions and his symptoms. It's something you can't rush. |
He'll have surgery and he will be put on IR. He's our team captain and he's the leader of our defensive backs. He's been in the league a long time. He's started 10 years in the league, so it's going to be hard to replace him. |
He's (Price) the engineer that drives the train. He does a lot of things. He brings a spark and enthusiasm to our offense. He'll make some mistakes, but he has enough confidence to go back out there and not let it get to him. |
He's a four-year stay. He's been involved with championships and a national championship. He's made as many big three-pointers as any kid I've ever had. ... Rashad clearly has been a special player for us. He's a special kid. |
He's a friend of mine. You never like to see an individual lose his job. It's a difficult time for him and his family. I wish him all the best, and I know he'll bounce back. He will coach again - I'd almost be willing to bet. |
He's a perfect fit. He's going to stretch the court for us. He has speed and over the top scoring ability. There are a lot of things that you can talk about a long time with him concerning his ability, talent and athleticism. |
He's a strong candidate to be in our rotation. We have six guys, I think, who can legitimately expect to be in competition for five spots. But he pitched well, and this process sort of recognizes what he already accomplished. |
