blitz definitely past
We're definitely doing more blitzing (than in the past), and when you blitz you've got to communicate more. When you're blitzing, everyone has to be on the same page.
awards best certainly coach definitely deserves job year
I don't know who's going to get coach of the year, but he certainly deserves it. I don't know how many coach of the year awards he's received, but this is definitely the best job he's done.
advantage city coming definitely happy thinking tough york
Being from New York City was definitely tough going, and coming out here to Colorado, I was definitely thinking that was real ironic. I'm very happy and I'm going to take advantage of each day that I'm here on this Earth.
definitely drive field stopped texas turning
I don't know if it was a turning point, but it definitely killed us. That whole drive we had marched down the field and Texas had not really stopped us.
brother bump coach definitely growing hard karl past throwing tough
I don't want to say what coach Karl is throwing at me isn't tough - that it isn't as hard as my brother - because he's just going to throw more at me. I'm not going to set myself up, but growing up in Harlem, New York, it was definitely hard and this is just another bump in the road. Once I get past it, I'll be that much stronger.
behind couple court definitely feeling happened months pain past played strong
It's definitely behind me now. I know I'm strong mentally, so I got past it pretty fast. It happened on the court a couple of months ago. I know I'd been feeling pain in it for a while now, but I just played through it.

It's definitely been a challenging first 10 days under coach Karl, ... He's really tough on me, and I like that because I know it's going to make me better and make me cut down some of my bad decisions on the court and make me that much smarter of a player.

definitely finish riders stage teams tend wins
The American riders tend to do a lot better on the finish circuit. They are more used to it than the European-based riders. This will definitely play into who wins the stage - it's who wins the turns. I like one of the American teams for this stage.
backs defenders forcing good helped job keeper last pressure result three today
I think it was a result of better pressure on their backs and their keeper that helped us. Last week, we weren't getting that in our first three games, but today we did a better job of pressuring their defenders and forcing some mistakes. When you do that usually something good is going to come from it.
felt nature second since
It had been so long since I started a game. Once I got out there it just felt like second nature all over again.
check financial people support willing
It is not a financial issue, ... We have a lot of people who are willing to write a check and support us financially.
