The trust factor is a little bit more there than it ever has been before. Not a little bit, a lot. ... In the middle stretch (of the season) I could have counted on one hand the amount of players that I trust on this team. Now I have a hard time saying who I don't trust. |
The U.S. government took no precautions, knowing that New Orleans is a city below sea level. The government evacuated no one. How many thousands died that could have been evacuated by air, land or sea? Not one ship was mobilized, not one helicopter, before the hurricane. |
The umpire talked to me and said (the pitches) were very close, they were just a little off. After the second inning, I think I turned around and discovered a little something I was doing wrong. I think I was rushing and I was definitely leaving the ball up a little bit. |

The word which came unto Jeremiah from the LORD in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah king of Judah, saying, / Go unto the house of the Rechabites, and speak unto them, and bring them into the house of the LORD, into one of the chambers, and give them wine to drink. |

Their No. 1 job is to enhance the character of each of the kids they get in their groups, and to empower them and make them unafraid to take risks. Each child has to matter. If you're coaching a team with 10 kids, the 10th child has to be as important as the first child. |
Their passion, their passion for perfection. I don't think Brian gets enough credit for his work ethic. Here's a young man, when he watches film, he studies the film. He reminds me an awful lot of Mike in that respect, because Mike really was a great student of the game. |
Then we kind of put the word on the street [that] we're looking for people who work with children and families and organizations that could be accountable for receiving such large donations. People have stepped up to the plate . . . and proved themselves to be reputable. |
