I don't like the same old thing all the time.

You want to teach the next generation so they can learn a little bit faster and a little bit more so everything becomes that much better.

We didn't think we were a fourth-place team. For us to beat the first-place team in the West and the first-place team in the East shows the dedication and determination that we had.

I turned 24 in the middle of my first World Cup and it was quite an unbelievable experience. It's really hard for words to do it justice.

You are going to have hostile crowds and the fans are going to find out where you are staying and keep you awake at night. They are going to use everything possible.

Overall, I think I'm in pretty good shape, but I'm not really someone that is gung-ho or a fitness fanatic.

Looking back now at my first World Cup experience, I didn't know what was going on. I was a newbie and I had no idea what to expect.
