It was a little bit different since I had to get things started. Usually I have to maintain things when I come into the game. I thought I played okay. A lot of times I could've done better in getting the team into things.
If, in fact, Christen is not playing this week, then everybody is going to have to step it up a notch and I know they'll do that. Last week we had a terrible week of practice and I think that was shown on (last Friday against Central Crossing, which hadn't scored since the second quarter of its opener and dropped to 0-4). Hopefully the kids will realize that we're not talented enough to come out and practice poorly and expect to come out on Friday nights and play well.
We've got 80 minutes and it could be the best 80 minutes of South Africa's rugby history for a long time. You can't make it any bigger than it is. To win tomorrow you win the Tri-Nations, you win back-to-back Tri-Nations, you go to number one in the world, you beat the All Blacks three times in succession, you can't try to make it any bigger. No South African side has won here (in Dunedin) since 1921. The more you talk about it the more you appreciate just how big this fixture is.
It's final exam time. I'm anxious to see what we can do. I've been waiting since Dec. 12, when Weis was hired.
We are also supposed to get two more trucks with ice and water today, ... But I'm crossing my fingers because I don't know that that will happen since no one from FEMA or MEMA or anybody has bothered to check on the town of Richton. I know the Gulf Coast is devastated, but if we don't take care of our elderly they are going to die and then our town will be devastated.
Refiners are exhausted, like runners in midmarathon. They've been pushing very hard since last year. As a practical matter, these things have limits. If you push too hard, capacity drops.
And since that point, I've spent all those years away from a college program where I'm not covered by NCAA rules and am free to help athletes at all levels get better at their skills and also learn how to use those skills once they get them developed.
We've been talking to some of Nordstrom's online users, who are very, very important customers, and they talk about how when they go online sometimes they shop and sometimes they look for fashion inspiration.
We just played bigger people the last two games. We're not going to play 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10, 6-10 Thursday. I think we should be all right.
We were overdue for a bounce after some very oversold conditions. Maybe we are getting to a point where the market is beaten-up enough.
We missed a lot of tackles, and to beat a team like that you have to do a better job of tackling.
We went after the worst of the worst and told them, 'You will not commit crimes here any longer,'
We felt Brandon would have some opportunities in this game. He needed to take advantage of them and he did. He's been playing at a high level and he's been a tremendous spark in every football game we've played.
We felt at the time of the initial offer that there was no way they'd be able to do it as cheaply as we do it ourselves, but out of fairness we went through the process and let them work the figures out,
