I didn't mean to spend my life writing American history, which should have been taught in the schools, but I saw no alternative but to taking it on myself.

I went to a Radiohead concert with Mr. Aaron Paul and became instantly hip. He's a great tweeter and took a photograph of the two of us. He said, 'Man, look at this! We've already got 800 hits in five minutes!' So this old dog became hip.

Rose McIver

We can't give up big plays. They score both on the run and pass on the blink of an eye. With their passing game, they spread you out and see the whole the field. They're that type of offense and their quarterback is cool back there. They have a number of weapons. They're running back is very good. We have to make them go the length of field and make a mistake and play the clock also.

I still remember how, before that game, you could see the haze in the sky from the smoke. It was weird ... I remember getting under center and we sent 'Moose' (Muhammad) in motion that first play of the game, and the field was bouncing. I guess it was the trays (that hold the turf) or something. That's when you knew it was just a game. And it just seemed like it was over in a blink of an eye.
