You can be stupid once, but idiotic to do it again. I'll settle for being stupid.

The best way to win is to play well early or late in the game. The middle part tends to take care of itself.

I'm very distressed that the report was leaked early so that the initial headline said 'dismissed, fired.' That's 180 degrees from the arrangement we have potentially.

Being involved in competition is a privilege and an opportunity. Seek to make the most of that opportunity by pushing yourself to the limit of your abilities. When it is over, you will have earned the respect of your opponents, your coaches, and yourself.

The thing I learned when I was playing was that your best way of winning was to make it difficult for the other team to score in the last three innings.

Even when you have three strikes, you're still not out. There is always something else you can do.

I'm a great believer in the character of the club. To me, character has a lot to do with how you compete. That creates urgency and toughness. That elevates the talent that you have.
