The only thing Greg Anderson does is what Barry tells him to do,
erase nobody pick prove till
Why should I have to prove myself again? Should I have to prove myself till I'm 40? I don't have to prove to nobody I can hit. How about you tell them not to pick it up. Tell him erase it.
anybody family reason shocked
We had a close-knit family. That's one reason I was probably more shocked than anybody that someone in my family was on drugs.
drive forget guy next runner scoring takes whatever year
We're stressing more this year to forget about numbers, just go out and do whatever it takes to win. If you have to get a guy over, get him over. Whatever you can do to get the runner into scoring position, then let the next guy drive him in.
flying open people predict timing
When I get to flying open and killing people in the stands, it?s not good. That?s when you know my timing is not right and you can predict I won?t get a hit. That?s when I tell myself to use the whole field. That?s when I?m at my best.
average channel close easily flip football game happen homes people sit tragedy turn watch
To happen in New Orleans, being so close to Tampa, it could have easily been me or my family. I just thought, how could I sit and flip the channel and watch a football game and go on with my average day when people are out of homes and everything they've got? To turn my back on it would be a tragedy in itself.
anybody bottom care happy kindness plenty services sides teams test trust
I don't want anybody to take my kindness as a weakness. Like I said before, this is where I want to be, but don't test me. It never was a done deal. It was a possibility. I'm happy about that. But there's two sides to that. On one side, I trust you, but don't play me. I don't care who it is, if it's the Boss, if it's him, don't play me. There are plenty of other teams out there that want my services ... that's the bottom line.

I don't think it's that serious. If I feel good tomorrow and I feel like I'm not going to jeopardize missing games or hurt the team, I'll play. Otherwise, I'll sit down.

Imagine if you came to work and you wanted to be positive, and somebody made a positive situation negative. I don't want to be negative. I've been fighting for 17 years, always negative. Why can't I have something positive done?

cramp felt good hurt kept maybe problems pull start stopped tried walking
I felt it cramp up on me. I tried to start over and regroup, but I just stopped before I hurt it more. I thought maybe I'd pull it if I kept going. Getting up and walking off myself was a good sign. I haven't had many problems with my legs.

I got whiplash. I didn't even know the wall was there. I tried to blow past the ball and I slammed into the wall.
