I was a little, skinny, runt kid, and I decided that bowling was what I was going to do in life.
The kids today, they want to run. In order to sell that program to that kids they have to buy into it. Most kids don't want to play like that.
It's not the most exciting style of playing by any means, but it's effective. One of the things that you have to do is guard them. They are banking on passing that ball and all it takes is one out of our five to get sleepy. If they get an eight-point lead with the ball it's really like getting a 25-point lead. It's going to be a very different game for us. Our kids are going to be focused and prepared.
It was a tough night for us. We can't make any excuses. They were better than us tonight and deserved to win. Considering what all we have been through this year, I am happy with where we are at. Our kids will be okay.
Of course whenever you make the playoffs it's an exciting time of year. All the past records go out the window, but at the same time it's a one-shot deal and you have to get it right the first time or else you have to go home for the summer. Every kids' dream is to make it to the state tournament. Our kids are no different from anybody else.
I've had some ambivalent feelings about being an actor. I don't know that I've ever been totally and completely comfortable with it.
People in the business will stay with you through drugs and alcohol and divorces and insanity and everything else, but you have a failure, pal, and they don't want to know nothing about you!
My sons are a hell of a lot easier to get through to than my daughter is. She seems to have my number. She can just run through the buttons.
I studied a lot of Foghorn Leghorn.
The most aggressive artists often hide their romantic side.
I try to parent equally, but I think little girls are a little more sensitive.
You're in this constant state of flux and transition, as if you had jet lag all the time. The acting part of it is easy. It's all the other things that come with it that are a bit difficult.
London is one of the most enchanting places I've ever been on this planet.
I pestered the hell out of everybody I ran into until I could play the guitar well enough to write and sing with it.
