spring past men
The purpose of God is the sovereign cause of all that good that is in man, and of all that external, internal and eternal good that comes to man. Not works past, for men are chosen from everlasting; not works present, for Jacob was loved and chosen before he was born; nor works foreseen, for men were all corrupt in Adam. All a believer's present happiness, and all his future happiness springs from the eternal purpose of God.
stupid heart dumb
God hears no more than the heart speaks; and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf.
biggest handle kerry offensive skill spending time
We have so many skill guys. If you don't get a handle on Kerry or Kendall that can be a problem. And we have so many receivers and that's been the biggest surprise. Our thing is working with the offensive line. We've been spending a lot time with them.
contend excited good grasp guys offense playoff
We will contend for a playoff position, ... The guys are getting a good grasp of the new offense and the defense. We're getting real excited about the season.
good last short talk
We always talk about you're only as good as your last play. You have to have a short memory.
chance district found game good team
I always found out you're only as good as the backups on your team - they're only a play away from starting. Any chance we can get them in, we are. We don't want district to be the first time. That way, they'll be used to the game and feel more comfortable.
holding whatever
You have some more things you do in district. Whatever we need to get done, we're going to do it. There's no sense in holding back.
guys lost whatever
To go 2-0 would be tremendous. We lost those two (Kendall and Teddy), but these guys will persevere. They'll do whatever it takes.
best gather good ourselves scatter
The best way to do ourselves good is to be doing good to others; the best way to gather is to scatter
amount short work
We're anxious, ... But we still have a lot of work to do and a short amount of time.
eliminate last line offensive physical technique work
I think we got better last week. They toughened up. That was the most physical the offensive line has played. We're not there yet, but I think we're getting there. We told them if we eliminate the mistakes, work on our technique and get better, we'll be OK.
areas stronger teams until weak work
I think we have a little more work to do until we are like the teams they had in the 90's and 2000, ... We're still working on some things. Areas we feel we are a little weak in right now but we need to get stronger in.
defend glad kerry
Kendall is just dangerous. I'm glad he's on my team. With the combination of Kendall and Kerry back there, I don't know if I'd want to defend that.
feels focus good hard next work
It always feels good to win, but we have to work hard and keep getting better. That's our focus for the next game.
