He coaches every single play, and you're going to have to do it, even if we're up 35 or 40. If you're out there playing around, and not really intense, he's going to sub you. You don't want to get subbed. You want to be out there and play.

I think you can always find a running back, but to find a shutdown corner like Champ, they just don't come around that much. He's hurt a little bit, but he'll come back when we need him. He's a great cornerback, so I think we got the better of the trade.

Shawn Rychcik

William Kristol

Recalling that a good chunk of the 47 percent who don't pay income taxes are Romney supporters - especially of course seniors (who might well 'believe they are entitled to heath care,' a position Romney agrees with), as well as many lower-income Americans (including men and women serving in the military) who think conservative policies are better for the country even if they're not getting a tax cut under the Romney plan. So Romney seems to have contempt not just for the Democrats who oppose him, but for tens of millions who intend to vote for him.

Sara Zarr

Ethan and I are done," I said finally. "I'm sorry." "He was my first boyfriend." "I know." "The only real boyfriend I've had. I'm a senior in high school and he was my only real boyfriend." "I know."
