No one is going to hand us anything, especially now,
Guys just stepped up to the plate and hit home runs. It was fun to be in a game like that.
Most of those people are still there because they have nothing to go home to.
Off the field, he did so much for so many people. He really reached a lot of people. ... He was a great friend on and off the field. We'll all miss him.
There's no airport. Pretty much everyone is better off staying put.
This is really a lot like the tsunami on a smaller scale, ... Rebuilding is going to take not weeks, not months, not years. Two years? No. Ten years? Maybe.
They have nowhere to go. There's no power. When they will get power? They're saying two months, ... If you're first in the line, it may be a week. If you're last, it may be two months. Where they start and where they finish, I don't know.
I probably slept two hours last night, and the whole time I slept, I had nightmares about should I go or should I stay? If I go, what do I do? If I don't go, how guilty will I feel for not being there?
But it tells you someone is one-on-one and not covered. If not for Sterling being hurt, who knows what would have happened, but we had to open it up, we had to find someone else and we did.
Donating money obviously would help a lot of people,
Next thing they know, water is on top of them, ... My older brother, Scott, and our friend, Clark, were swimming in the house trying to get the kids. My brother, Jeff, has three kids. He was trying to get them up in the attic.
Had we gotten into the playoffs, I don't know if anybody would have wanted to play us. If we would have gotten in, I liked our chances. Who would have said that five weeks ago?
No one can go in, ... No one can come out. There's no cell phones working. There's no land phones working. Half the county is under water, from what I understand. . . . In my gut, I feel like they're okay. But with each minute that passes, I begin to wonder. . . . This is one of those situations where I would love to do whatever I could to help . . . but I don't even know where to start. It's tough to focus on anything right now because I'm very concerned.
I've found myself over the last 24 hours a couple times saying, 'Why me?' or, 'Why of all places ...' ... As quickly as that thought pops in my head ? and it probably pops in my head more than I'd like it to ? I try to remind myself of the things to be thankful for, which there are a lot.
