For some reason, they didn't ask me back. I guess my invitation is lost in the mail.

I don't think you could find a rookie that has more football awareness. Mentally, he is not a rookie.

I don't know the guy and I don't think I've ever had a conversation with him. But I know he's a great coach. The film is his resume. He has a great resume.
complaints-and-complaining
No griping. No complaining. No one asking, 'Why me?'
hard hours minimum mouse pick prospects tried
Mouse tried to pick up my bag, but he had a hard time, it was so heavy. He said, 'I know what's in there. Film.' I probably do a minimum of 4 hours of film every day. I look at prospects for 2007 every day.

One thing you learn in football, you waste your time worrying about injuries because they're going to come.

You have to be ready for anything. Working hard is the one thing you can control.
asking christ deciding god help jesus knew mental mentally players prayed row win
I told them, 'Why not do 20 of these in a row today?' ... It was the players deciding to do it without mental errors. I prayed to Jesus Christ to try to let them play mentally like they practiced. If I had any help at all, it was asking God not to win (or) not to play good, but let the players play like I knew they could play mentally.
blocking good job line offensive
That quarterback, No. 11, he can play some yard-ball. And the offensive line does a good job of sorting things out and blocking things.
