Damon Jones

When I got to the league, I learned and looked up to guys who had long-lasting careers because they didn't partake in alcohol. I'd say it's very rare (for an NBA player), but I'm already high on life and I enjoy living, so I don't need any extra additives.

I don't push buttons to push buttons. Throwing the rebel card out there is really cheap.

Kacey Musgraves

A label's typical plan would be to put something out that's safer and get fans, and then push buttons, but my idea is to push buttons first, scare off the people who are gonna be scared off, and then the right people will like you for who you really are, and stay with you.

Kyler Hall

We're not disappointed in A.J. at all. He's our teammate and he's our brother. You never want to see one of teammates get in a situation like that. I haven't had the chance to speak with him, but I would like a chance to before the game, just to let him know that we're all with him. I'm pretty sure he knows that already though.

Dick Vermeil

We're not concerned about the playoffs. Right now our concern is playing well Saturday. That's all that matters. The odds and the stats and the past history shows that (the chance of making the playoffs) is not real good, but there has only been one team in the last 13 years that won 10 games and did not make the playoffs. We have a chance to win 10, but you can't do that until you win No. 9. For us, it's all about Saturday.

Like I always tell my girls, a lot of people always wish they could go do something but they never get the chance of doing it. I may never get rich, but it's like getting on the back of a stallion with no saddle. You get on and hang on and see where it's going to take you.

Oronde Gadsden

Like everyone else in here, I hope those two moves are the moves that help us get past that playoff level to the next level. They had a chance to get Ricky, and they went out and did it. And it's like everybody says, we're going to ride him until the wheels fall off.

Dick LeBeau

Make no mistake, they've got a great quarterback. It's not easy to hold him under 20. Our guys did that and it gives you a great chance to win. It was the execution of our players. They did a great job with their timing.

Phil Simms

Make Denver make the decision here. In other words, put pressure on Mike Shanahan. What's he gonna do? Is he gonna run it and maybe waste a down because it might not gain a lot of yards, or does he take the chance and throw it and if it's incomplete it stops the clock. That's what the Patriots are hoping for.

Carlos Zambrano

Luck is something you always need to have. We have more chance than the Cardinals. They don't have some of the players they had last year, like Matt Morris. We have to start winning the first month, as many games as possible. We have a good team. We have everything.

Frank Sinatra

Luck is only important insofar as getting the chance to sell yourself at the right moment. After that, you've got to have talent and know how to use it
