It's just a great feature when you have five or six people living in a house.
Every year I've coached, we've always had that No. 1 guy who was clearly above everyone else and the rest of the kids just fell in place behind him. This year, they're all so close in playing level. It's been great because they're challenging each other to take it to the next level. We don't have that one overpowering player, but we've got seven kids who can win on all five courts, and they're all getting better.
Communication is so fast today. During the second World War you would hear the news and it would be 12 hours old. Now you hear what is happening in Iraq, and the information is five minutes old. It's not always correct. They tell you something, and then they correct themselves the next day.
There's a five second moment when you just pray, waiting for the doors to open,
It would be hard to come back and start and expect five innings and 80 pitches.
After I said I was going to Ohio State, (Texas) coach (Mack) Brown came back five minutes later and said a snowstorm came in and it shut the whole school down, ... I said to myself, that's way too cold; I'm not going there.

Coach Brown came back five minutes later and said a snowstorm came in and it shut their whole school down, ... I said to myself that's way too cold, I'm not going there.
I got within five or 10 feet of him but he went under, ... He saw us coming.
On Sunday, with the five to six hours of sunlight that we got, the Kids Section really came into full swing. I know the kids really enjoyed the games. The non-profit groups came out along with the other vendors, so it turned out to be a productive day.
Love is one of the top five players in the country, regardless of class. He's old-school, tough as nails and he's starting to extend his game out to the 3-point line. If you're a basketball purist, he's fun to watch.
So many wait until Friday. Every five minutes we were filling out fishing licenses.
We've been working on this for four or five years. We can wait another few days to see it go off.
There's about five or six landslides that we're seeing. The one at Crouching Lion is the only one that had an effect on people, the rest are in natural areas.
