I think I'm fighting an uphill battle. You've got to look at it from a coaching standpoint: 'Can we rely on this guy?' That's what they have to think. But I'm just going to go out and play. If I get hurt again, I get hurt again. But I've got two bionic knees now.

I've been coaching an awful long time. I've always wanted to be a head football coach, and I've been looking for an opportunity.
It could be a similar battle this year, but don't forget the line-out battle either, especially with Steve Borthwick in the side. Bath have a quality pack, it's one of their strengths and with Michael Foley on their coaching staff they're going to base a lot of their play around their forwards. After all it's been successful, why would they want to change it?

In our freshman year we were all new to the system, so there wasn't a lot of player coaching going on. Now, there is.
He's definitely auditioning for a head coaching job, maybe not here but he's going to get a head coaching job. He's a great coach, a players' coach and he's going to give it his all. He played the game and played it well.
It really is a very good barometer, we think, of how active employers are.
As a New York-based sports editor put it to me,
That's been one of the knocks on me, ... that people think I'm not strong. So that's one of the things I want to work on in my last year.
They started cracking jokes, and I said: 'Ain't nothing funny when I have to work the next day.'
This is his hometown. What better way of honoring him?
Energy costs have just gone sky high on us as everyone else. Anything the school system can do to try and conserve energy we are going to do.
If you are cold at night, let the promise of my love cover you like a warm blanket
He played a lot of footy and knows a lot about the game . . . the three of us have been taken aback by his enthusiasm and knowledge.
