I love Serena [Williams]. Seeing what Serena's done in her field has been incredible.

A guy like Malcolm who makes that type of quick, instinctive plays, that's one of his strong suits. I don't think it surprised any of us players because that's what his skill set is.

It's just part of whatever motivates guys and whatever they say. Ultimately it comes down to how well you play. What I've learned over the years, a lot of guys talk. What you need to do is go out there and play, back it up. They've been able to back it up, so that's why it works for them. Hopefully we can go out there and do our talking on the field.

The only thing I really like doing during the week is getting ready to play the game.

My job is to evaluate the field, pick the guy that I think is most open and make a good throw.

Derek Jeter is one who played for such a long time, and David Ortiz in Boston is doing it right now.

Every quarterback can throw a ball; every running back can run; every receiver is fast; but that mental toughness that you talk about translates into competitiveness.
