I had no intentions of playing him. I didn't think he wanted to play. But he ran into my office with his shoes in his hands saying he was ready to go. The only reason I played him was because he was starting at me every freaking time out. I told the coaches, we have to put him in, or he's going to drive me nuts. |
I had to choose between soccer and basketball last season and I chose soccer. I'm thankful to coach Williams for working with me. Everybody thinks soccer is my favorite sport. I love both sports the same, but soccer will take me farther. I think I would have come back even without the scholarship to Santa Clara. |

I have 150 kids on my master e-mail list for the Playhouse, and I hand-picked the 22 I felt had the strongest voices and stage presence. Our whole mission is to get kids involved in the arts, so this was a great opportunity for them and for the Playhouse. These kids will be the best chorus the tour has ever had. |
I have a strong feeling about integrative care, about working closely with other people besides other doctors, ... Integrative care, I think, is where it's going. I think it gives people a broader spectrum of care, and a broader spectrum of the way in which people can look at themselves and look at their health. |
I knew King Hussein, and I know King Abdullah, ... When the king was on his way to die, he chose Abdullah to succeed him not because he was more intelligent than the other princes but because he knew Prince Abdullah would be the toughest of them all if the moment arrived when the Hashemite Kingdom was in danger. |
I know I had someone hit me on that play. Someone knocked me off balance that much I can tell you. I guess I'll see the replay later but I think as a goalie you've got to expect that when an opponent skates through the crease, the referee has to spot it and least stop the play or call a penalty for interference. |
I know the talent that he's got, and it's about time for him to start swinging the bat, because he has some opportunity. I think he has done a great job for us the last couple years we've had him. When we've put him out there to play defense, pinch-run or pinch-hit, anything, he's always done a great job for us. |
I like everything so far. I can't right now find a weakness. When I walked in here this year, I was just hoping to tread water and go for that county championship. Even that, I thought, was going to be a struggle. Now, I wouldn't be surprised if this is the first year we sneak one by one of our region opponents. |
I liked the kid. He was friendly in high school -- I'd see him at ABCD or Nike Camp. Then I heard he'd gone to work for an agent, Dan Fegan. Then he got hooked onto Derrick Caracter. ... I think guys who have an agent-like background have their own interest in mind and are extremely detrimental to these players. |
I looked forward to it for a long time. It feels awesome. Yeah, I was happy. It's something you dream of, scoring in the NHL, and you only do it the first time once. It was big. There's a lot of emotion. The fans were great. It was so loud. I never expected to hear them (chanting) my name. You never expect that. |
I loved and hated India; the pressures of class division and riches and poverty there are devastating, but love predominates. I have two families and scattered friends there, mainly in Delhi, but south also, and wish I had the stamina to tackle it again. Maybe I'll make it some day yet, but it does take stamina. |
I never have voted for a pay increase for me, and with such a huge federal deficit, I don't think it's right to vote for a pay increase for yourself ... My salary is greater than most of the people in my congressional district, and there is no way I can vote for a pay raise when many of them are just getting by. |
