talked
I haven't talked to him. And probably won't talk to him.
expected finish second skate
I never expected to finish second or third. I always skate to win.
quit until
I haven't accomplished all my goals. I won't quit until I get there.
few happy head hold left medals skate
I'm very happy with my accomplishments. But at the same time, I feel like I left a lot of medals out there. I didn't skate perfect. I let myself down a few times, but I have to hold my head high.
compete develop good happy help lap speed talked time
I'm going to go out there and compete like I always do, but at the same time I'm going to use it to develop speed for the first lap of my 1,500. I think that's a good thing. I think it's going to help me, so I'm happy Bart talked me into it.
beat bounce chad everybody prove
I'm going to bounce back and prove to everybody what I can do. You may beat Chad Hedrick once, but you're not going to beat him twice.

I'm going to be back, and we're going to make another run for it in Vancouver.

I knew Carl and I were skating for silver.
fifth jones moving picked race roy
I'm like Roy Jones Jr. moving up to heavyweight. I picked up a new race and I got fifth in the world. I think that's pretty good.
affect care individual team
I'm part of team USA. I don't care about how it's going to affect my individual race. I'm part of the team.
energy expected gone laps race stay strategy
If I would have been the back, with the energy I had left, I probably could have gone through more laps when the race was done. The strategy we set out backfired on us. We expected KC to be able to stay in there and KC expected to stay. It wasn't in the cards.
four races takes toll
It takes a toll on you. Four races would have been tough.
They better use a different one than they used in (training), I'll tell you that.
chance olympic positive
It's an important part of being on the Olympic team. I'll get a chance to feel the Olympic spirit. It can't be anything but a positive experience.
