advantage breaks few lead played
We have to take advantage of opportunities. We got a few breaks in the first inning and we just kind of played with the lead from there.

We played very well to beat a team like Mountain View. They work hard across the entire field and can make life difficult during the game. But it's really great when you can get a shutout in a championship game.
beat biggest defense dropped fact full great mistake played tried
The biggest mistake we made when they beat us is we dropped back a little and tried to play too much defense. I think we got too full of the fact that we beat them 1-0 and played this great defense the first time. And we played too defensive.

That's a great team we just played. We played so hard in the second half. I'm really proud of that. It was a great game.

We all wanted another shot at them. We knew we played a bad game the last time and we all prayed that we'd get another chance.

If I see a spider in the flat, I try to get a cup and a piece of paper and throw it out of the window. I can't kill them because they're good for catching flies.
achievement direct family good greatest love quite
I quite like the idea of family. That's probably the greatest achievement in the world. I've got a lot to achieve workwise - I'd love to direct - but family would be good.
age awful early fact favourite frank god love sinatra song
I'm awful at karaoke, but if I did have to sing, I'd go for my favourite Frank Sinatra song 'I've Got You Under My Skin.' The fact I love Frank is my grandfather's doing: he drummed it into me from a very early age that Frank Sinatra is God.
fortunate frank hard mean nature rewarded ways work
It's hard work, 'Doctor Who,' but let's be frank about it, I'm fortunate to be rewarded in the ways that I am. I don't just mean financially, I mean the nature of the part and everything that comes with it.
