There's no question in my mind: not only am I going to be able to make it through 16 games, I'll make it through another five years.

I think my best years are ahead of me and that's exciting.

It's funny, you can get over the win pretty quick and get ready for the next opponent. When you lose, it just eats at you.... What could we have done? What should I have done? All those things. Just part of playing professional sports and sports in general.

We're continuing to evolve into what we think we can do, and you know that takes a little bit of times sometimes to figure out what you're really good at and what you can hang her hat on per se, and I think we're learning that each week that goes by.

As a competitor and an athlete, you love that you get to go back and challenge someone, especially the world champs.

It's easy to say you're more mature because all of a sudden you have a child, but it's a process.

You just work at it. You just keep grinding away, keep trying to get better, and if you got the ability, one day you have a chance.
