We have to win one before we can win two.
In 1999, I got fired as coach of New England. In three years in New England, we actually did better than most people think. We were 27-21, won the AFC division title, went to the playoffs twice.
My mom was really cool. She's the one that gave me the mentality about believing in myself and trusting it, that I was always gonna be okay, and that I could do things in a special way. She just pumped me up, you know?
Dancers work and they work and they work, and they master their skills so far that improvisation just comes flowing out of them. Their natural expression of the best they can possibly be comes out of them because there is no boundary to hold them back... That's the mentality that I'm trying to create, recreate and hold on to forever.
I was the best guy, you know, all through Little League and Pop Warner and that kind of stuff. But when I went to high school, I was undersized. I didn't grow. I was behind the whole puberty cycle. I didn't like high school.
People make mistakes all the time. We learn and grow. If there's patience and love, and you care for people, you can work them through it, and they can find their greatest heights.
The argument about the system is out there and that's probably good. We did what we could, impressing the people in the AP poll and the coaches who felt free to vote.

We've got to make sure we get John David through the bulk of it. We'll have to go to John David more in practice.
We've got to make sure John David makes it back. I wouldn't count Mark out, he's done too well. Mark's gained more ground on him - he had a great spring. His bid to start has been enhanced by that.
We've done this before. All through this process, it felt like three years ago, when Carson left and our running backs took off.
If anything, it shows that we can finish.
I don't understand. We've played in that setting for years, and I think it adds to the game and the excitement of it.
I expect a tremendous week of preparation this week.
