against air days force game great loved memories naval played wish
Allan and I played during the same time, and I told him the one thing I really wish I could have done was play a game against him and Air Force. I have so many great memories about my days at the Naval Academy, but if I could do it again, I would have loved for us to play Air Force because I never got the chance.
against complaints-and-complaining guys mentioned paul sound veteran work
I don't want to be complaining. Paul Zimmerman (a veteran writer) has mentioned that he thought there was a bias, but I don't want to say that because it can work against you and make it sound like these guys are whiners.
counting race winning
I'm not counting on winning a race soon, but I don't want to be too old before I win.
ball believe ben charge early game key seattle turned
They've turned the ball over to him. I think they really believe in him and I think the key to the game will be if Big Ben can take charge early on. If he doesn't I think Seattle will win.

Fishman was twisting Skip's leg under the pile. That's what caused the injury.

This is a big deal. No matter what any of these players say, this game will impact the rest of their lives.
involved scared sure track yelling
I've never been involved with a sport where I didn't have some control. I'm going to be there at Daytona, scared to death, and yelling for Car 96 to make sure it comes around the track and finishes.
race
That's how important this race is to me.
seattle shot sworn
I would have sworn that Indianapolis was going to go all the way. Now that Pittsburgh's in there, I think Seattle has got a shot at them.
adds changed cowboys great joe
That really adds a lot of great luster to this. They have a first-class operation, and Joe Gibbs is a first-class person, ... But I never changed my loyalty. I'm still a big Cowboys fan.
car crew impressed stopped struggled
We struggled early, but what impressed me was that the crew never stopped working to get the car better. I'm impressed with the effort.
athletics committed feeling hoping miracles people sure
I have the same feeling that I had as an athlete. We're just hoping we can be competitive. I'm very much committed to making sure this works. . . . If you put the right people in the right places, miracles can happen.
money sports
I didn't make enough money in my sport to retire.
both business hard results takes teaches work
Football teaches you hard work. It takes a lot of unspectacular preparation to have spectacular results in both business and football.
