Winning Forever is not about the final score; it's about competing and striving to be the best. If you are in this pursuit, then you're already winning.

Stay hungry, remain humble and get better today.

We're not going to do anything different for this game since we're not treating this game any different than another game. Every game is a championship game for us, so we'll treat this one, the last one and the next one exactly the same. And that goes for our practices leading up to it as well.

The thing that always strikes me is how much power one person has. Everybody has so much power to help and to change if they just exercise it and get after it.
